What Constitutes an Emergency Lockout?

An emergency lockout is any situation where you are unexpectedly denied access to your property or vehicle and require urgent entry. These situations demand a quick response to prevent prolonged inconvenience, security risks, or even danger, especially during adverse weather or late hours.

Residential Lockouts

This is perhaps the most common emergency. You might have left your keys inside, lost them, or had them stolen. The lock itself might have seized up, or the key could have snapped inside the mechanism. Whatever the cause, being unable to get into your home, especially with children, pets, or valuables inside, is a pressing emergency that needs immediate attention.

Commercial Lockouts

For businesses, a lockout means lost productivity, potential security risks, and disruption to operations. This could be due to lost staff keys, a faulty commercial-grade lock, or a security system malfunction. Prompt access is vital to resume business activities and ensure the safety of assets and information.

Vehicle Lockouts

Being locked out of your car, van, or lorry due to lost, broken, or locked-in keys is a classic emergency. It can leave you stranded, late for appointments, or unable to move essential goods. Our auto locksmith services are a crucial part of our emergency offering.

Broken Key or Faulty Lock

Sometimes you have the key, but it either snaps inside the lock or the lock itself simply seizes and won’t turn. This transforms a simple entry into an immediate emergency, as the mechanism is compromised, preventing access and potentially leaving your property vulnerable.

On-Site Key Cutting and Replacement

If your lockout is due to lost or broken keys, we can often provide an immediate solution. Our mobile workshops are fully stocked with a wide range of blank keys and equipped with precision cutting and programming tools. We can cut new keys on-site for both residential and commercial locks, and for vehicles, we can cut and program transponder keys and remote fobs on the spot.

Lock Repair and Replacement

In cases where the lockout is caused by a faulty or broken lock, we can diagnose the issue and, where possible, carry out immediate repairs. If the lock is severely damaged or beyond economical repair, we carry a variety of standard replacement locks on our vans, allowing us to install a new, secure lock right away, restoring your property’s integrity.

Security Advice Post-Lockout

After gaining access, especially if a break-in attempt or a security vulnerability was involved, our locksmiths can offer immediate advice on enhancing your property’s security. This might include recommendations for lock upgrades, additional security measures, or changes to key management practices to prevent future incidents.

If your keys are lost or stolen, we can still gain entry to your property or vehicle using our non-destructive methods.

For vehicles, we can even erase the data of the old keys from your car's system to ensure maximum security, providing you with complete peace of mind.

Indeed. If your lockout is caused by a faulty or broken lock mechanism rather than lost or trapped keys, our locksmiths can diagnose the issue on-site.
