Emergency locksmith, Dún Laoghaire
One call, day or night. Tell us where you are and what has happened, and we will tell you what we can do and roughly how long we will be.
Lock emergencies do not keep office hours. A door that will not open at midnight, a key snapped in a cylinder before work, a break-in that has left a property insecure — these need someone who answers the phone and turns up.
What counts as an emergency
- You are locked out of your home, business or car
- A key has snapped in the lock or the cylinder has seized
- A door will not lock, leaving the property insecure overnight
- A break-in or attempted break-in has damaged the lock or frame
- Keys have been lost or stolen and the locks need changing quickly
What happens when you call
We ask three things: where you are, what type of door or vehicle it is, and whether the property is currently secure. That tells us what to bring and how quickly we need to be there. We will give you a clear idea of cost before any work starts.
Non-destructive entry first
Wherever the lock allows it, we open it without damage — picking, bypassing or manipulating rather than drilling. Drilling is a last resort, and if it is the only option we will say so before we start, along with what replacing the cylinder will cost.
Emergency locksmith — common questions
Do you really answer at night?
Yes. The number on this site is answered around the clock, including weekends and bank holidays.
Will you have to drill my lock?
Usually not. Most locks can be opened without damage. Where drilling genuinely is the only route in, we will tell you before we start and explain what replacing the cylinder involves.
How much will an emergency call-out cost?
It depends on the lock, the door and the time of day. Tell us what has happened when you call and we will give you a clear price before any work begins.
Can you make the property secure tonight and finish tomorrow?
Often, yes. If a full repair needs a part we do not carry, we will secure the property first and come back to complete the work.
