What happens when you are locked out
Locked out of a student flat in Brynmill, a house in West Cross or a cottage on Gower?
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 Swansea: 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 Swansea do you cover?
Every SA postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Mumbles, Gorseinon, Neath, Port Talbot, Llanelli, Pontardawe. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
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 do I pay?
When the job is finished. Card, cash or bank transfer, and you get a written receipt you can use for an insurance claim.
Do you cover Gower, Mumbles and the towns beyond Swansea?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole SA postcode area, from Mumbles and Gower to Neath, Port Talbot, Llanelli and Carmarthen, and on to Tenby, Haverfordwest, Cardigan and Aberaeron.
Can sea air really seize a lock near the seafront?
It can. Salt in the air corrodes cylinders, handles and hinges over time, so a lock near the shore may stiffen or stick sooner than one inland. An engineer can free off or replace the affected parts and check the rest of the door while there.
