What counts as an emergency

A snapped key in a terrace door in Royton, a lock forced during a break-in or a front door that will not close properly: call at any hour and the emergency line is answered. The engineer confirms the price before work starts.

Being locked out, a lock that will not open or will not lock, a key snapped in the door, or a door damaged in a break-in. If you cannot get in, or cannot leave the house secure, it is an emergency and we treat it as one.

Day or night, including weekends and bank holidays, the price is the same. You get a quote on the phone, the nearest engineer drives to you in Oldham and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.
