A locksmith in Dundee who confirms the price before starting
Our Dundee engineers repair, re-key and replace locks on tenement flat doors in Lochee and Stobswell, sandstone villas in the West End and Broughty Ferry, and newer homes in Monifieth and Carnoustie.
Most calls we take in Dundee are one of three things: someone locked out, a lock that has stopped working, or a household that wants the locks changed after lost keys or a move. You describe the door and the lock, we give you the price, and the nearest engineer drives to you.
Our engineers carry the common cylinder sizes, nightlatches, mortice locks and uPVC gearboxes, so most jobs are finished in one visit.

Locksmith in Dundee: common questions
What does a locksmith in Dundee cost?
Lockouts start from £39, lock changes from £88 and uPVC gearbox replacements from £89, plus VAT where applicable. You get a free quote on the phone, and the engineer confirms the price before starting.
What do you work on?
Front and back doors on homes and small businesses: lockouts, lock changes, lock repairs, uPVC and composite doors, window locks and repairs after a break-in. We do not work on cars or safes.
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.
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.
Can you fit insurance-approved locks?
Yes. BS3621 mortice deadlocks for timber doors and anti-snap euro cylinders for uPVC and composite doors. Tell us what your policy asks for and the engineer brings the right lock.
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.
Do you cover Broughty Ferry, Carnoustie and Arbroath as well as the city centre?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole DD postcode area, including Monifieth, Newport-on-Tay, Tayport, Forfar, Brechin and Montrose.
Can you open a tenement flat door on a shared stair?
Yes. A shared street door or entry system normally belongs to the owners or the factor, but your own flat door is something we can deal with.
