Emergency locksmith in Chandler’s Ford?
Yes, we are open round the clock and come out across all of SO53, from Hiltingbury and Fryern Hill to Valley Park, Hocombe, Ramalley and Velmore. We are not a call centre, you speak to us directly and we tell you a fair price before we set off. There is no call-out fee and no VAT added at the end.
Locked out in Chandler’s Ford?
If you are stood on the doorstep on Bournemouth Road or anywhere off Hiltingbury, stay put and give us a ring. Most lockouts we open without any damage at all, using non-destructive entry from £80, so you keep your existing lock and door. We do not drill first and ask questions later. If a key has snapped in the barrel, our broken key removal starts at just £50, and most jobs are sorted on the spot.
Need a lock change in Chandler’s Ford?
Lock changes start from £90. Plenty of the 1960s and 70s homes around Hiltingbury and Velmore have older mortice locks, while the newer Valley Park estate is mostly uPVC and composite doors. We carry the right cylinders and mortice locks for both. If you have just moved in, lost a key, or had a relationship change, a fresh set of locks is the simple fix.
One security tip worth doing today
If you have a uPVC or composite front door, look at the euro cylinder. The cheap ones snap easily and are a known weak point on the kind of doors common across SO53. Fitting an anti-snap, anti-bump cylinder is a small job that makes a real difference. For mortice and nightlatch doors, ask us about a BS3621 British Standard lock, as most home insurers want that British Standard kitemark and it is easy to miss. We will tell you honestly what you already have before you spend a penny.
