Which lock do you need?
Landlords with rented properties around Coleham and Abbey Foregate can have locks changed between tenants, and new owners in Copthorne or Kingsland can do the same on moving day.
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 Shrewsbury 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 Shrewsbury
The Severn floods low-lying parts of Shrewsbury such as Frankwell in wet winters, and damp air makes older timber doors swell and stick in their frames.

Lock change in Shrewsbury: common questions
How much is a lock change in Shrewsbury?
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 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 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.
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 Shrewsbury, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
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 cover Aberystwyth, Welshpool and Newtown as well as Shrewsbury?
Yes. Our 24-hour line covers the whole SY postcode area, from Shrewsbury and Ludlow across the border to Welshpool, Newtown, Machynlleth and Aberystwyth.
Can you fit a modern lock to an old timber or listed door in Shrewsbury or Ludlow?
Usually, if the door itself is sound. Mention it on the call if the building is listed, so the engineer can plan a lock that suits the door.
