Which lock do you need?
Moving into a Kirkcaldy flat or a Fife family home and unsure who has copies of the keys? We change the locks during the visit, fitting BS3621 mortice locks on timber doors and anti-snap cylinders on uPVC and composite ones.
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 Kirkcaldy 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.

Lock change in Kirkcaldy: common questions
How much is a lock change in Kirkcaldy?
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.
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.
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.
How quickly can someone get to me?
An engineer is typically with you in 15 to 20 minutes, and within 30 minutes at most. We give you a time on the phone based on where the nearest engineer is right now.
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 Kirkcaldy, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
Do you cover the East Neuk villages and St Andrews as well as Kirkcaldy?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole KY postcode area, including Anstruther, Crail, Cupar, St Andrews and Kinross. Tell us the village and street when you call and we give you the arrival time on the phone.
I am locked out of a stone tenement flat in Kirkcaldy. Can you get me in?
Yes. Our engineers open standard flat doors, stair doors and uPVC back doors in Pathhead, Linktown, Gallatown and across the rest of the town, then check the lock still works.
