Which lock do you need?
Just moved into a flat in the West End or a house on the Southside and unsure who holds the old keys? We change the locks during the visit, fitting BS3621 mortice locks and anti-snap cylinders to suit tenement, composite and uPVC doors.
uPVC and composite doors use a euro cylinder. We fit anti-snap cylinders, which resist the snapping attack burglars use on cheap cylinders. Timber front doors usually have a nightlatch and a mortice deadlock; for insurance that deadlock should be BS3621.
Most lock changes in Glasgow take 30 to 45 minutes. Common reasons: moving into a new home, lost or stolen keys, a tenant moving out, or a lock that has become stiff and worn.
Locksmiths who know Glasgow
Glasgow's frequent rain swells old timber flat doors in the tenements, so mortice and nightlatch locks bind and keys snap in them more often than they should.

Lock change in Glasgow: common questions
How much is a lock change in Glasgow?
From £88 supplied and fitted for a standard euro cylinder. BS3621 mortice deadlocks start from £109. The price the engineer confirms includes the lock and the fitting.
Do I need anti-snap locks?
On a uPVC or composite door, we recommend them. Snapping is the most common way in through those doors, and anti-snap cylinders are built to resist it.
How does pricing work?
Tell us the door, the lock and what has happened, and we give you a free quote on the phone. When the engineer arrives, they check the lock and confirm the final price with you before starting any work. Nothing is done without your agreement. A £49 assessment fee applies only if you cancel after the engineer has arrived.
Do you charge a callout fee?
No callout fee when you go ahead with the job. If you decide not to go ahead after the engineer has arrived, a £49 assessment fee covers the visit. Otherwise you pay for the job itself in Glasgow, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
Do nights and weekends cost more?
No. The price is the same at 3am on a Sunday as it is at midday on a Tuesday, bank holidays included.
Which areas around Glasgow do you cover?
Every G postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Paisley, East Kilbride, Cumbernauld, Kirkintilloch, Clydebank, Bishopbriggs. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
Can you open the shared close door of my tenement?
Yes. Our engineers work on communal close doors, entry-phone doors and individual flat doors. For a shared door we will want to confirm you live in the building, and replacing a communal lock usually needs the agreement of the other owners or the factor.
Do you cover the towns outside the city, like Clydebank and Cumbernauld?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers Clydebank, Bearsden, Bishopbriggs, Kirkintilloch, Cumbernauld and the other towns in the G postcode area. Give us your street and postcode and we confirm the arrival time on the phone.
