What happens when you are locked out
Locked out of a terrace near the town centre, a semi in Halcon or a new-build at Comeytrowe?
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 Taunton: 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 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.
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.
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 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 Taunton, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
Do you cover Bridgwater, Wellington and Minehead as well as Taunton?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole TA postcode area, including Bridgwater, Burnham-on-Sea, Wellington, Chard, Crewkerne and Minehead.
Can I get the locks changed on moving day in a new-build at Monkton Heathfield or Comeytrowe?
Yes. Plenty of new owners change the cylinders when they collect the keys, so they know exactly who holds one. We fit BS3621 and anti-snap cylinders, and the price is confirmed before work begins.
