What happens when you are locked out
Locked out of a Victorian semi in Tonbridge, a seafront flat in Bexhill-on-Sea or a cottage in a Wealden village?
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 Tonbridge: 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.
Which areas around Tonbridge do you cover?
Every TN postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Tunbridge Wells, Sevenoaks, Maidstone, Paddock Wood, Hildenborough, Edenbridge. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
How does pricing work?
Tell us the door, the lock and what has happened, and we give you a free quote on the phone. When the engineer arrives, they check the lock and confirm the final price with you before starting any work. Nothing is done without your agreement. A £49 assessment fee applies only if you cancel after the engineer has arrived.
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 Hastings, Bexhill-on-Sea and Rye as well as Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole TN postcode area, from Tonbridge and Sevenoaks to Ashford, Romney Marsh, Hastings and Bexhill-on-Sea.
Can you replace the lock on an old timber-framed cottage in a Wealden village such as Cranbrook or Goudhurst?
Usually, yes. Older cottage doors vary a lot in thickness and fit, so the engineer looks at the door first, recommends a lock that suits it and confirms the price before work begins.
