  • Modern estates on the edges of Dumfries, Annan and Lockerbie

Locksmith near me in Dumfries: common questions

How do you choose which locksmith comes?

By postcode. We send whichever engineer is closest to you at that moment, so the arrival time is as short as it can be.

Is there a locksmith near me in Dumfries right now?

Call and we will tell you within a minute. An engineer is typically with you in 15 to 20 minutes, and within 30 minutes at most.

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 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 Dumfries, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.

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.

Which areas around Dumfries do you cover?

Every DG postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Annan, Lockerbie, Castle Douglas, Dalbeattie, Stranraer. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.

How far across Dumfries and Galloway do you cover?

The same 24-hour line covers the whole DG postcode area, from Gretna, Annan and Langholm in the east to Newton Stewart, Wigtown and Stranraer in the west. Distances are longer in the countryside, so give us your postcode on the call and we will say how soon an engineer can reach you.

Can you deal with the lock on an older cottage or farmhouse door?

Yes. Older timber doors often carry a mortice lock or a rim lock, and our engineers can repair or replace either. Where the door is suitable we fit a BS3621 lock, and the engineer explains the options and confirms the price before starting.
