Your Local Chester Locksmith
Locked out of your house with your keys trapped inside? Lost your keys on the way from your car to the front door? Or looking for stronger home security? We have been dealing with such cases in Chester for the last 8 years, carrying out over 2,000 jobs in the area.
We are not a call centre. When you ring us, you are speaking to the person who will be attending your site. Chester's architecture is highly diverse, and each building calls for a different method of dealing with it. The Victorian terrace properties in Boughton are very different from the Georgian townhouses that are located near the Rows or Upton and Vicars Cross.
We are fully insured and have DBS clearance. Allowing someone access to your locks means allowing them into your home, so trust matters. All jobs are provided with guarantees and prices agreed upon in advance. We do not apply any kind of pressure and provide no upgrades unnecessarily.
It is important to be a part of this community. Some of our customers include neighbours, business owners, landlords and families who come back to us after many years for more work. Trust develops gradually, and we value that relationship highly.
Emergency Locksmith Chester
Lockouts do not happen at a convenient time. A door closes while keys are still inside. A key breaks inside the lock. You need someone to get you in without breaking your door.

Locksmith Prices in Chester
Cost concerns sometimes lead people not to call a locksmith because of bad experiences of being overcharged. However, we are transparent. A fixed price is provided before any work starts, depending on your description of the job. Labour is already included in the price quote. Any parts that might increase the cost are mentioned upfront.
When it comes to claims concerning break-ins, we offer documentation and receipts that your insurer will take.
Standard callouts and repairs generally start from £80 to £120. Replacement costs for locks and uPVC mechanisms depend upon the exact requirement of the items to be replaced. Out-of-hour callouts and appointments will cost you more than standard day appointments.
We aim to appear fairly priced but not necessarily the least expensive. Very low prices mean there is something lacking somewhere.

Lock repairs provide access to people's homes and lives. This responsibility is not taken lightly. All of our locksmiths have undergone DBS checks. Insurance is provided for all the works carried out, along with a workmanship guarantee for all of our jobs.
