FAQs

Emergency Locksmith Purley — Frequently Asked Questions

How much does an emergency locksmith cost in Purley?
Emergency door unlocking in Purley starts from £89 for a standard night latch or Yale-type lock. Lockouts involving BS3621 mortice locks or uPVC multi-point systems start from £120. We confirm the exact price over the phone before we travel, so you always know what you will pay. There is no separate call-out fee on top. After midnight, prices increase — call us for a quote. Card or cash accepted.
How fast can you arrive for an emergency in Purley CR8?
We aim to reach any address across Purley CR8 — including Purley Cross, Kenley, Riddlesdown, Purley Oaks and Woodcote — within 30 to 60 minutes of your call. We operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including bank holidays. Response times can vary in heavy traffic, but we will keep you updated from the moment you call.
Is there a call-out charge on top of the quoted price?
No. There is no call-out fee or hidden travel charge. The price we give over the phone covers the full job including labour. Card or cash accepted on the day.
Can you open a uPVC door without breaking or drilling it?
In most cases, yes. Modern uPVC doors with multi-point locking mechanisms can usually be opened using specialist non-destructive entry techniques. If the lock mechanism itself has failed or is heavily damaged, drilling may be necessary — but we will always explain why before starting and get your agreement first. We never drill unnecessarily.
I have lost my house keys in Purley — what should I do?
If you are locked out due to lost keys, call us immediately and we will gain entry using non-destructive techniques. Once you are inside, we strongly recommend a same-day lock change to ensure your home is secure. See our lock change Purley service for full details and pricing.

What happens if my lock is damaged after you gain entry?
After gaining entry, we assess the lock condition and give you an honest recommendation. If the lock is fine, we leave it as is. If it needs replacing for security or functional reasons, we carry a range of BS3621-approved cylinders and mortice locks on the van for a same-day lock change. We quote separately for any additional work — no pressure.
Do you work on weekends and bank holidays in Purley?
Yes. We operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Weekend and bank holiday callouts are available at standard daytime rates. After-midnight prices increase slightly — call us for a quote if you need us in the early hours.
