Who is Bugsy?

Donald ‘Bugsy’ Edwards runs Keywise, family-run, independent, and the 2024 Police & Crime Commissioner Community Volunteer of the Year (Hampshire & Isle of Wight).

Common questions

Are you locked out and need a 24 hour locksmith in Waterlooville?

Ring Bugsy and you get Bugsy, no call centre, no waiting list. We cover PO7 and PO8 day or night, locked out, snapped key, kicked-in door. Most Waterlooville jobs reached inside 55 minutes from the Waterside. The first move is always to pick the lock open, not drill it, which saves your door and your money. No call-out fee, and you’re quoted up front before any work starts. Wellington Park, Wecock Farm, the Forest of Bere fringe, all regular runs for us.

What does a Waterlooville locksmith charge for a lock change?

I’ll tell you straight, you get a price up front before I touch anything, no call-out fee bolted on after. For insurance work I fit British Standard 3621 mortice deadlocks and 3-star anti-snap cylinders, the kind every UK home insurer asks for. Key safes start from £120 supplied and fitted. The national chains often arrive late and reach for the drill, which costs you more. Local and independent works out cheaper and there’s no premium for being a few miles out.

Do you cover Cowplain, Denmead and Horndean from Waterlooville?

Yes, all of them. Cowplain and Denmead are inside 10 minutes from Waterlooville centre, and I serve Horndean and Clanfield regularly too. Same pricing, same response, no extra charge for being a few miles out of the centre. It’s a regular PO7 and PO8 run for me, mix of older village properties and newer estate housing, plus the rural fringe. Locked out or want your locks sorted, ring 07453 327708 and we’ll get it done with no drama.

Can you open a UPVc door without breaking it in Waterlooville?

Most of the time, yes. UPVc doors fail at the multipoint gearbox, and I carry every common UK gearbox on the van, so I can often repair rather than replace. The aim is always non-destructive entry, pick it open, save the door and the cylinder. UPVc work is heavy on the Waterlooville estates so I see plenty of it. Hinges, alignment, sticking doors, all sorted. Quoted up front, no call-out fee, and I’ll point out anything else worth fixing in plain English.

I also sort hinges and alignment while I’m there so it shuts properly again. Quoted up front, no call-out fee, day or night across PO7 and PO8.

Donald 'Bugsy' Edwards, founder of Keywise, with the 2024 Police and Crime Commissioner Community Volunteer of the Year award

Donald “Bugsy” Edwards

Founder, Keywise 24hr Locksmiths. Family-run on the SO45 Waterside since 2013.

Everyone round here calls me Bugsy, and I still answer my own phone, day or night. I got into this trade because I could not stand hearing how people were treated at the worst moment, locked out, broken into, or a door that failed when they needed it most, and then charged the earth for it. So I do it the other way. I tell you straight what a job needs and what it does not, I fix rather than replace where I can, and I never add a call-out fee or VAT. In 2024 the Hampshire Police and Crime Commissioner named me Community Volunteer of the Year, and that one meant the most, because it came from the community I work in. No call centre, no script, just me and the van.
