Emergency guidance
Locked Out or Need to Secure a Property?
A few practical steps can protect the door, your safety and your options while help is arranged.
If you are locked out: avoid forcing the door or repeatedly turning a stiff key, as this can turn a straightforward entry job into a broken lock or snapped key. Call and describe the door, lock and what happened so the locksmith can discuss likely entry options before attending.
After a break-in: contact the police first if there is immediate danger or the incident has just happened. Once it is appropriate to repair the entry point, our burglary repair service can assess damaged locks, doors, frames or glazing and explain temporary or permanent make-safe options.
If keys are lost or stolen: tell us whether they can be linked to your address and which doors they open. We can help you decide whether emergency entry alone is enough or whether the affected cylinders or locks should be changed. See our lost keys service.
Catford and SE6 are our core service area, with nearby coverage including Bellingham, Lewisham, Hither Green, Forest Hill and Sydenham. Check the full service-area guide or call to confirm your location.
