Lockouts never happen at a convenient time. A snapped key, a slammed door, a failed lock late in the evening — whatever has happened, Lockstead has a DBS-checked locksmith offering fast emergency cover into the evening, at weekends and on bank holidays.

We agree a fixed price with you over the phone or WhatsApp before we set off, so you know exactly what the job costs before we arrive. There is never a call-out charge, a travel fee or a surprise surcharge added on the doorstep.

Wherever possible we open your door without any damage at all. Our engineers carry professional picks, decoders and bypass tools and resolve over 95% of lockouts non-destructively, preserving your existing cylinder, handle and frame.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you reach me in an emergency?

Our engineers are pre-positioned around Sutton and the surrounding South London boroughs, so the average emergency arrival time is 20 to 40 minutes — often sooner for Sutton SM1 and SM2 addresses.

Will you damage my door or lock?

Almost never. We use non-destructive entry as our default and open more than 95% of doors with no damage at all. Drilling is only ever a last resort on high-security locks, and only with your agreement.

Is there a call-out fee for emergencies?

No. We quote a single fixed price before we travel, covering labour and any parts. There are no call-out fees, travel charges or out-of-hours surcharges added on arrival.

Do you cover late evenings, weekends and bank holidays?

Yes. We provide fast emergency cover into the evening, at weekends and on bank holidays — exactly when most lockouts happen. Call us for current availability and an ETA to your address.

Can you replace the lock there and then?

Yes. Our vans carry a wide range of cylinders, deadlocks and nightlatches, so if a lock is worn or compromised we can usually supply and fit a replacement on the same visit.
