Locked out in Romsey?
If you are locked out, stay put and call us. Most lockouts are sorted with non-destructive entry from £80, which means we pick or manipulate the lock open rather than drilling it, so you keep your existing door and cylinder. If a key has snapped off in the barrel, our broken key removal starts at £15 and you are usually back in within minutes. Lock changes start from £90 if a lock has failed beyond saving.
Need a lock change in Romsey?
We change and upgrade locks across SO51, from worn night latches to modern multipoint mechanisms. If your home insurance asks for a British Standard lock, our insurance-grade BS3621 lock changes will keep you covered. We also fit police-approved key safes from £120 fitted, which are handy for carers, holiday lets and families near Broadlands and Sandy Lane.
One home-security tip for Romsey homes
A lot of Romsey homes, especially the newer builds out at Abbotswood and Whitenap, have uPVC doors with a euro cylinder lock. The older standard cylinders can be snapped by force in seconds, which is a known weak point. Look for an anti-snap cylinder marked to TS007 3-star, or pair a 1-star cylinder with a security handle. It is a small change that closes off one of the easiest ways into a house, and we are happy to advise on it when we visit.
Boarding-up after a break-in
If a door or window has been forced, we carry out boarding-up from £80 to £150 to make the property secure straight away, then sort the locks properly once you are ready.
Romsey locksmith FAQ
How quickly can you reach Romsey?
Under 30 minutes from our Waterside base in most cases. Traffic and time of day make a difference, so we always give you an honest estimate when you call.
Do you charge a call-out fee or VAT in Romsey?
No to both. There is no call-out fee and no VAT. The figure we quote on the phone is what you pay, with non-destructive entry from £80 and lock changes from £90.
Can you replace a lock my insurance needs?
Yes. Plenty of policies require a BS3621 mortice or rim lock, and we fit insurance-approved locks to that standard. Tell us what your insurer asks for and we will match it.
We cover the wider area too, so if you are nearer Chandler’s Ford or Eastleigh we look after those as well. Whatever the lock, call Keywise on 07453327708 and we will get you sorted.
