Common questions
How much does a locksmith in Gosport cost?
I quote you up front, before any work starts. No call-out fee, no VAT surprises tacked on at the end. The price I say on the phone is the price you pay. Most jobs in Gosport are straightforward, a lockout or a lock change, and I’ll tell you straight what it involves. If a job turns out bigger than expected, you hear about it first. No drama, no shock bills.
How quickly can you reach me in Gosport if I’m locked out?
Most Gosport jobs I reach in under 50 minutes from the Waterside, day or night. Gosport’s a peninsula, so I know the run in well, PO12 and PO13 throughout. I answer the phone myself, no call centre, no waiting list. Ring me, tell me where you are and what’s happened, and I’ll give you a straight time. Locked out at 2am is no fun, so I won’t leave you guessing.
Will you break my door to get me in?
No, not unless there’s no other way. The first move is always to pick the lock open and get you in without damage. That saves your door, your cylinder, and a fair bit of money. The national chains often reach straight for the drill because it’s quicker for them. I’d rather do it properly. If a lock genuinely can’t be picked, I’ll tell you straight before I touch anything.
What locks do I need to meet my home insurance in Gosport?
Most UK insurers want British Standard 3621 mortice deadlocks and 3-star anti-snap cylinders. I fit both, and they meet the common insurance requirements.
