To save you some time we have put together a list of frequently asked questions the help you.
The short answer to this is yes, prices will be more expensive if they are outside of usual working hours for instance in the night or weekends and bank holidays however dependent on the type of service you require this can vary. We will however give you an upfront costing for the job before any work is carried out to make sure you are happy with the price and we will never show up and charge you more for he job we quoted.
We offer a 12 month warranty as standard with the majority of our locks, however some can come with a 2 year warranty and it is also possible to purchase an extended warranty should you wish to do so. Either contact us for a quote of you can speak with the engineer at the time and he will be able to advise you of the options available and prices.
Well the first thing we would always say is to make sure that you have decent insurance approved high security locks installed. this in itself can deter criminals from attempting to break in. We also recommend to secure your windows properly and in some cases dependent on where the windows are we would also advise window locks. this is also a very good feature if you have small children to prevent them for being able to open the windows un assisted. Another way to add security to your home is to have some kind of CCTV installed, either a camera system or something like a ring doorbell, again this could deter any potential intruder from even trying to break in. Lastly we would recommend good lighting, such as spot or flood lights above your front door as in the event that anyone did attempt to break in you would stand a far better chance of them being caught.
We are based in St Albans but we serve the whole of Hertfordshire. We have engineers based in many of the locations across the County so we are in a position to be able to get to you quickly wherever you are.
Not necesserely, it will depend on the reason that you are locked out and if it is possible to gain access via a non-destructive method. Most of the time if you have locked your keys in your house and you know they are not lost then we can just open the door and let you back in and your keys will still work fine but if however you have lost your keys or think they may be stolen then we would always advise to change your locks for safety reasons even if you had spares. If you had snapped your key in the lock but had a spare then again most often time we can remove the broken key and you can use the spare but if for instance you had double locked your door or it wasn't possible to remove the key then again you would need a new lock.
Yes we do.

Our locksmiths are fully trained to deal with a wide variety of door and window problems so whatever the job, we've got it covered!
Well there is no 1 answer for this question as it will depend on the door and lock type and also the nature of the job for instance an emergency lock change will always incur a higher fee, particularly if it is during the night hours, weekends or bank holidays. If you are interested in having your locks changed then there is one thing we can guarantee when it comes to the price we absolutely wont be beaten!
