Opening a lock, not breaking it.

  1. We look at the lock

    Euro cylinder, mortice, rim lock or a uPVC multipoint. Knowing which one decides the gentlest way in.

  2. We set the pins

    Where the lock allows it, each pin is lifted to the shear line by hand, one at a time.

  3. The plug turns

    With every pin set, the cylinder turns and the door opens. No splintered frame.

  4. We leave it working

    If the lock is worn or damaged we’ll say so and can change it there and then.

How quickly can you get to me?

Most call-outs in Fife are reached in 30 to 45 minutes from our Kirkcaldy base. When you ring, we’ll give you a time for your address.

What hours are you open?

We’re open from 7am to 11pm, seven days a week, including weekends. Ring any time in those hours and we’ll give you a time for your address.

Will you have to damage my door?

We always try a non-destructive entry first. Some locks can’t be opened that way, and if a lock has to be drilled we’ll tell you before we start.

My uPVC door handle has gone floppy. Can you fix it?

Usually it’s a failed gearbox or multipoint mechanism. We repair or replace the mechanism so the door locks properly again.

Can you cut spare keys at my house?

Yes. We carry a key cutting machine in the van, so spares can be cut at your door.

Do you do shops and offices?

Yes. We supply, fit and repair commercial locks, and board up broken shop windows after a break-in.

Ring now, or we’ll ring you.
