We help homeowners, tenants, landlords and businesses across SW13, SW14 and the wider SW postcodes — with non-destructive entry wherever possible, honest advice, and tidy workmanship.

Whatever's happened with your locks, there's a good chance we handle it. Not sure? Just call — we'll tell you straight away.
Emergency lockouts
Stuck outside your home or business? Lockouts go straight to the front of the queue, and we open the door without damaging the lock whenever the mechanism allows.
Learn moreLock repairs
Sticking cylinders, latches that won't spring back, mortice locks that bind — we diagnose and repair rather than replace where it's safe and cost-effective.
Learn moreLock changes & replacement
New tenancy, lost keys or aftermath of a break-in — we change or rekey the locks so only the right people have access.
Learn moreDoor & multipoint repairs
If the door only locks when you fight the handle, the multipoint mechanism is wearing or the door's misaligned. We diagnose, then repair or replace.
Learn moreSecurity upgrades
Cylinders rated against snap, bump and pick attacks, alongside BS-grade locks that satisfy insurers and stand up to today's break-in techniques.
Learn moreBurglary repairs & boarding
After a break-in, the make-safe comes first — then permanent repairs to the door, frame, locks and any weak point that was exploited.
Learn moreWindows, garages & shutters
Front doors aren't the whole story — we repair window locks, garage locks, roller shutters and security grilles too.
Learn moreCommercial locksmiths
Access control, master-key suites, smart locks and lock maintenance for shops, offices, landlords and HMOs.
Learn moreWhat affects the cost?
Locksmith pricing varies because the work varies — but we're always upfront. You'll get a clear price before we start, with no call-out fee and no VAT surprises.
- Type of job. Lockout, repair, lock change or a security upgrade.
- Time of attendance. Standard working hours vs evening, night or weekend callouts.
- Parts required. Standard hardware vs high-spec parts like anti-snap cylinders or BS-rated locks.
- Complexity. The number of locks and doors, and the complexity of the mechanism.
A locksmith you can trust
Outcomes vary widely between traders, so trust comes down to process and transparency. With us you get:
- Plain-English breakdown: what we'd repair, what we'd replace, and why
- Non-destructive entry first; drilling only when no other route works
- Compatibility checks on parts, especially for multipoint locks
- Post-job test: latch smooth, bolt throws fully, and all locking points engage correctly
- Itemised receipt covering parts fitted and work completed
Locksmith FAQs
Is there a call-out fee?
No — we don't charge a call-out fee. The price quoted on the phone (or at the door) is the price you pay; if anything would change it, we tell you first.
How quickly can you get to me in Richmond?
For emergencies such as lockouts we aim to be with you in around 30 minutes, depending on traffic and where you are in the SW postcodes. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Why does my uPVC door in Richmond only lock if I force the handle up?
That's usually a failing multipoint gearbox or door misalignment. We can repair or replace the mechanism and realign the door so it locks smoothly again.
After losing my keys, do I need a full lock change?
A straightforward lock change normally does the job. If the existing locks are weak (basic euro cylinders, no anti-snap protection), we'll mention it — but there's no pressure to upgrade.
Are your locksmiths insured and vetted?
Every engineer is DBS-checked, fully insured and credential-verified. You get a named, vetted locksmith at your door — never a sub-contracted unknown.
Can most lockouts be solved without drilling?
In the vast majority of lockouts we use non-destructive entry — picking, bypass or letterbox tools — so the existing lock stays intact and you don't need to pay for a new one.
