Emergency locksmith in Totton?
Call us on 07453327708 and we will be on our way. Totton sits a short hop from Holbury, so whether you are out by Rumbridge Street, up in Calmore, near Testwood or down by Eling Tide Mill, we get there quickly. We work around the clock, weekends and bank holidays included, and the price you are quoted is the price you pay. No call-out fee and no VAT, ever.
Locked out in Totton?
Locked out is the call we get most, and most of the time we are in without breaking anything. We use non-destructive entry wherever the lock allows, which starts from £80. That means picking or manipulating the lock open rather than drilling it, so you keep your existing cylinder and you are not left with a bill for new parts. If a key has snapped off in the barrel, our broken key removal starts from just £15, and you would be surprised how often that is all it takes.
Need a lock change in Totton?
Lock changes start from £90. If you have just moved into one of the newer estates around Calmore or Testbourne Avenue, or you have lost a key, it is worth doing. For home insurance you usually need a lock that meets BS3621, and we fit insurance-approved BS3621 locks to keep your policy valid. While we are there we can also fit a key safe from £120, and we always recommend a police-approved key safe rather than a cheap one off the shelf.
A useful tip for Totton homes
A lot of houses around Totton have uPVC doors with euro cylinder locks, and the older flat ones are the weak point. They can be snapped by anyone who knows the trick, often in seconds, leaving the door wide open. Look at the cylinder where it meets the handle. If it sticks out past the metal plate, it is vulnerable. Ask us about an anti-snap cylinder to British Standard TS007 three star. It is a small job that makes a real difference, and we will tell you honestly if yours is already fine.
Totton locksmith FAQ
How fast can you get to Totton?
Under 30 minutes from our Waterside base in most cases. Traffic and time of day can move that a little, but Totton is close to us and we do not keep you waiting.
Will you damage my door getting me back in?
Usually not. We open most locks without damage, so you keep your door and lock as they were. We only drill as a last resort, and we tell you before we do anything.
Do you charge a call-out fee or add VAT?
No to both. There is no call-out fee and no VAT on top. You get a clear price before we start the work.
We also look after neighbouring areas, so if you are over towards Waterside Southampton, Dibden or Calshot, give us a ring. Donald ‘Bugsy’ Edwards and the team are always happy to help.
