A locksmith in Folkestone who confirms the price before starting

Folkestone runs from the Harbour Arm and the old Bayle up to the Edwardian West End and the cliff-top Leas. Call the 24/7 line if you are locked out or need locks changed, and you get a free quote on the phone with the engineer confirming the price before starting.

Most calls we take in Folkestone 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.
