What happens when you are locked out
Locked out of a flat near Tombland, a house in Lakenham or a cottage in a village outside the city?
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 Norwich
On the coast at Cromer, Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft, salt air eats at steel locks, hinges and letterboxes faster than it does inland, so seaside doors tend to seize before they fail.

Locked out in Norwich: 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.
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 Norwich, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
My keys are inside. How much does it cost?
Door opening starts from £39 in Norwich. You get a quote on the phone once you tell us the door and lock type, and the engineer confirms the price before starting.
Which areas around Norwich do you cover?

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.
Do you cover Great Yarmouth, Lowestoft and the north Norfolk coast as well as Norwich?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole NR postcode area, including Cromer, Sheringham, Great Yarmouth, Lowestoft, Beccles and Bungay.
