What happens when you are locked out

Locked out of a terrace that opens onto the street in Ince, a semi in Orrell or a house in Up Holland?

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 Wigan

Many Wigan terraces date from the coal and cotton era and open straight onto the pavement, so a worn nightlatch or tired mortice lock on the front door matters more than it might on a house set back from the road.

Homes and doors we see most

  • Victorian terraces around the town centre and in Ince
  • 1950s semi-detached houses on the estates around the edge of town
  • Older village houses in Parbold, Up Holland and Billinge

Locked out in Wigan: 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 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.

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.

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 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 you cover Leigh, Standish and Skelmersdale as well as Wigan town centre?

Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole WN postcode area, including Ashton-in-Makerfield, Orrell, Billinge, Shevington, Up Holland and Parbold.

My terrace door opens straight onto the street, can you fit a lock that stands up to a break-in attempt?

Yes. We fit BS3621 mortice locks and anti-snap cylinders on timber and composite doors. BS3621 is the standard many home insurers ask for on external doors, though it is worth checking your own policy.
