SERVICES
Every price we charge, on one page.
A locksmith who will not put a number on a website is telling you something. These are the prices we quote on the phone, and they are the prices on the invoice.
£69 24/7 lockout — no call-out fee
Call 0161 496 0271
- Lockout — non-destructive entry
- Picked or bypassed wherever the lock allows it. A drilled cylinder is a failure, not a method, and it is charged the same either way.
- Euro cylinder change
- Anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-bump, three-star. Keyed alike across your doors at no extra labour if we do them in one visit.
- Five-lever mortice to BS 3621
- The lock most home insurers name on the policy. We measure the existing mortice first; a wider case means a new door edge and we say so before we start.
- Rekey an existing cylinder
- New pins, same hardware. Cheaper than replacement and the right answer after a lost key or a tenancy change.
- Master-key suite
- Charted, pinned and cut in the workshop. Design is quoted once against the door schedule; see the suite page for how the chart is built.
- Safe opening
- Manipulation or a manufacturer override where one exists. Drilling is quoted separately and always includes the repair.
- Emergency boarding
- After a break-in, before the glazier. We photograph the damage for your insurer and leave the property secure.

- Prices are for Greater Manchester, exclude VAT, and hold from 08:00 to 20:00.
- Outside those hours add £40 to the call-out. There is no separate weekend rate.
- Parts are charged at trade cost. The invoice lists the part number.
What we will not do
- Drill first. Drilling a cylinder takes four minutes and costs you a cylinder. We pick, bypass or pull, and we drill only when the lock's own design leaves nothing else.
- Quote a call-out and add a "labour charge" on arrival. The first hour is in the price above.
- Fit a lock your insurer will not accept. If your policy names BS 3621 we fit BS 3621 and the invoice says so.
- Cut a key from a photograph. Not for a door we have no record of, and not without proof you live there.
