Locksmith work across Greater Manchester

Locked out of your home at 2am? Lost the only set of keys to a uPVC door that will not turn? Had a break-in and need the place secured tonight? You need a locksmith in Manchester who picks up, gives you a straight price on the phone, and gets there fast. That is what we do.

We cover all of Greater Manchester. Evenings, weekends and bank holidays carry an out-of-hours surcharge, and you hear it on the phone rather than on the invoice; whether anyone is free at that hour depends on the night, and you get a straight answer rather than a claim printed on a page. Fixed prices, and most jobs done on the first visit because the van carries the parts that fit the doors round here.

What we cover

We handle the full range of residential and small-commercial locksmith work: emergency lockouts (non-destructive entry whenever possible), lock replacement and upgrades to British Standard BS3621 and anti-snap cylinders, uPVC and composite door repair including multipoint mechanism replacement, burglary repairs with insurance reports, and auto locksmith work for car lockouts and spare keys.

Why people call us

We give a fixed price on the phone before we set off, not a vague "from £X" that doubles when the engineer arrives. Out-of-hours surcharges are disclosed up front, never at the door. We open most locks non-destructively instead of drilling first, which keeps your costs down and your door in one piece. And we work to British Standard so the locks we fit keep your home insurance valid after a break-in.

Serving Greater Manchester

We cover the City Centre, Didsbury, Chorlton, Salford, Old Trafford, Withington and the surrounding postcodes. There is no response time on this page: it depends where the van is when you ring, and a number printed in advance is a number somebody made up.

Call us — or request a callback

If you are locked out right now, calling is faster. If it can wait until morning, request a callback and we will book you in at the standard rate. Either way you get a clear price before any work starts.

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to the most common questions about our services.

A standard lockout where the lock can be opened non-destructively typically runs £75–£150 during the day, with after-hours rates higher. A new lock fitted is usually £100–£250 depending on the lock and door type. We always give a fixed quote on the phone before we set off.

We do not publish an arrival time, because it depends on where we are when you ring. Call and you will be told straight away whether someone can come and roughly when — a number quoted on a web page would be a guess.

Out-of-hours lockouts carry a surcharge, and you are told about it on the phone rather than after we arrive. Whether someone is free at that hour depends on the night — ring and you will get a straight answer instead of a promise.

In most cases, yes. We pick or bypass standard cylinder locks non-destructively for the great majority of lockouts. If a lock is broken, snapped or anti-pick to the point we cannot bypass it, we will explain that before drilling so you know what it will cost.

Yes. After a burglary the property is boarded up and secured first, then fitted with British Standard BS3621-rated locks and anti-snap cylinders so your insurance is in order. You get a written report for the insurer.
