I've locked myself out of my house in Eltham and my keys are inside — can you get me back in?

Being shut out of your own home is horrible, but it's one of the most routine jobs we handle. A local locksmith heads straight to you in Eltham and, in the vast majority of cases, opens the door using non-destructive techniques that leave your lock working exactly as before. Once you're back inside, you can relax knowing nothing has been damaged.

Do you push jobs to the front of the queue when there's a child or someone frail trapped indoors?

Yes, without hesitation — when a child or a frail or vulnerable person is trapped inside, that job goes straight to the front of the queue. We redirect the nearest locksmith to you immediately and can typically be there within about 25 to 45 minutes, depending on traffic, staying on the line with you while we're on the way if that helps.

My lock still works fine, I just want the previous keys to stop working — do I really need a full replacement?

Absolutely — if the lock is in good shape, our technician can rekey it right there on your doorstep in Eltham without stripping the door of its existing fittings. The mechanism is adjusted so only your new keys turn it, and everything else stays exactly as it was. It's a tidy way to regain control of who can get in.

When would a lock have to be drilled out, and is that really only a last resort for your engineers?

Drilling only comes into play in the rare cases where a lock is already snapped, seized, or a high-security model that leaves no gentler way in. Even then it's the very last option, tried only once picking and manipulation have been exhausted, and we always explain why first. Whenever a lock does have to be drilled we fit a working replacement there and then, so you're never left insecure.

How can I help the call go quicker so someone gets to me sooner?

The quickest calls are the ones where we know exactly where to come, so having your address and a note about parking or access ready makes a real difference. Telling us whether it's a flat, a house or a communal entrance also saves time once we're at the door. As soon as we've got the basics, we can be with you within about 25 to 45 minutes, depending on traffic and get straight to work.

I'm worried the trapped fragment has knocked the mechanism about. Once the broken piece is out, will you be able to check whether the lock still turns properly?

Once the broken piece is out we always test the lock thoroughly before leaving, turning it several times to be sure nothing inside has been knocked out of true. If the fragment has worn or bent the mechanism we'll tell you plainly and sort a repair or replacement, so you're not left with a lock that fails again a few days later.
