Emergency Lockouts
Our 24/7 emergency service resolves lockouts within 15-60 minutes using non-destructive entry techniques. Engineers carry specialist tools in fully equipped mobile vans to handle residential and commercial lockouts without damaging property. Transparent pricing ensures no hidden fees for urgent access requirements.
High-Security Locks
We install BS3621-compliant locks meeting insurance standards, including anti-snap cylinders and multipoint locking systems. Our security assessments identify vulnerabilities in existing mechanisms, with recommendations to enhance protection against forced entry while potentially reducing insurance premiums for domestic and commercial properties.

We install and maintain systems allowing temporary access codes, staff credential management, and integration with existing security infrastructure for enhanced workplace security and operational efficiency.

We address common security weaknesses in existing installations while ensuring compliance with current safety standards through use of anti-snap components and reinforced hardware.

Highly recommended. On time and very professional. Thought it was a broken gear box and they could have easily done the job and charged but Jason found the problem and managed to rectify all in a hours job.

Really pleased with the work Mark and the team did to help us change some locks in our new property. Super efficient and really took the time to care for our doors; especially one that was sealed shut! Highly recommend and will use them again in future.

Report
Embarrassingly locked ourselves out of the house. Jason from Greater London Locksmiths came round in 20 mins and not only got us in but then noticed that our new front door was catching. Adjusted the door so it didn't need to be slammed anymore all within the same first hours rate.
