What happens when you are locked out
Locked out of a flat in a Georgian terrace, a Victorian house in Widcombe or a stone cottage in Bradford on Avon?
Tell us what kind of door it is (timber, uPVC or composite) and what lock is on it. Most lockouts are a nightlatch that has shut behind someone, a uPVC door with the key inside, or a key that has snapped or got stuck in the lock.
If the lock has to be drilled, because the keys are lost or the lock has failed, we tell you before we start and fit a new lock on the spot, so you are not left with a door you cannot lock.
Locksmiths who know Bath
Much of central Bath is listed and sits within a World Heritage Site, so period front doors are usually repaired or fitted with a suitable lock rather than swapped for a modern door.

Locked out in Bath: common questions
Will my door or lock be damaged?
We always try to open the door without damage first. Some locks cannot be opened that way and have to be drilled or replaced. If so, the engineer tells you why and confirms the price before starting, and fits a new lock straight away.
My key has snapped or is stuck in the lock. Can you get me in?
Yes. The engineer takes the broken piece out of the cylinder, opens the door and checks the lock. If the cylinder is worn or damaged, you get the price of a new one before it is fitted.
My keys are inside. How much does it cost?
Door opening starts from £39 in Bath. You get a quote on the phone once you tell us the door and lock type, and the engineer confirms the price before starting.
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 Bath, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
Which areas around Bath do you cover?
Every BA postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Bradford-on-Avon, Frome, Keynsham, Radstock, Trowbridge, Melksham. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
I lost my keys. Should I change the locks?
If the keys could be linked to your address, yes. We can open the door and fit a new cylinder in the same visit, from £88.
Can you work on a Georgian front door in a listed Bath terrace?
Yes. Our engineers can repair, re-key or fit a suitable lock to older timber doors, and the engineer will explain what is possible and confirm the price before starting. Where a change would alter how a listed door looks, it is worth checking with the council first.
Do you cover Frome, Wells, Glastonbury and Yeovil as well as Bath?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole BA postcode area, from Bath and Radstock to Wells, Glastonbury, Frome, Warminster, Trowbridge and Yeovil.
