What happens when you are locked out

Locked out of a first-floor flat in Balham, a mansion block in Earl's Court or a terrace in Earlsfield?

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.

Locked out in Southwest London: 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.

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.

Which areas around Southwest London do you cover?

Every SW postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Clapham, Battersea, Tooting, Balham, Wandsworth, Putney. 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.

My keys are inside. How much does it cost?

Door opening starts from £39 in Southwest London. 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 cover Wimbledon, Streatham and Putney as well as Clapham and Battersea?

Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole SW postcode area, including Chelsea, Fulham, Brixton, Balham, Tooting, Wandsworth, Barnes and Wimbledon.

Can you fit a BS3621 lock on a flat door in a Victorian conversion in Balham or Fulham?

Usually yes, if the door is solid enough to take it. Many insurers ask for a BS3621 lock, so the engineer looks at the door, says which lock suits it and confirms the price before any work begins.
