Common questions
Do you cover Woolston in Southampton 24 hours a day?
Yes, we cover Woolston day or night, weekends and bank holidays included. It’s genuinely 24/7, no set closing time. Call and Bugsy answers the phone himself, no call centre, on 07453 327708. We’re based over at Holbury in the Waterside, but Southampton is well inside our patch. Tell us what’s happened and we’ll get someone to you and sort it, no drama.
How much does a lock-out cost in Woolston?
A lock-out starts from £80 with non-destructive entry, which means we try to open the door without wrecking your lock first. There’s no call-out fee and no VAT on top. If a lock is jammed or seized, opening it is from £75. We quote you up front before any work starts, so you know the price before we touch anything. Card or cash, whichever suits.
Can you upgrade my locks after a break-in in Woolston?
Yes. Lock changes start from £90 for the first lock, any extras at the same visit quoted on the day. If you want anti-snap TS007 3-star cylinders fitted, that’s from £150. We also fit insurance-spec British Standard locks. If you’ve had a break-in, tell Bugsy and he’ll sort a goodwill discount. Everything we fit comes with a 12-month guarantee on the parts.
Do you fit key safes in Woolston?
Yes, we supply and fit Sold Secure police-approved key safes from £150. Handy if you’ve got carers coming and going, or family who need access. We fit it properly so it’s fixed where it should be and holds up. If you’re a carer or looking after someone vulnerable, ask Bugsy about a discount. We cover Woolston and the wider Southampton area for this.
Are there any discounts for older customers in Woolston?
Yes, older customers get 20% off the work, no need to feel awkward asking. Members of our local crime awareness Facebook groups get 10% off. We also sort goodwill discounts for charities, carers, anyone who’s had a break-in, and folk changing locks after an unsafe situation at home. Just mention it when you call and Bugsy will sort it. No fix, no fee either.
