With thousands of apartments and flats in London, it’s no surprise that we are called out to many situations each month where residents have been locked out of their flat. Flat lockouts in Knightsbridge happen more often than you’d think, whether it’s a ground-floor flat where the keys have been locked inside or a room in an HMO that you’ve lost the key too.
Many times, leaving a key with friends or a neighbor is a good idea, but if you haven’t had the foresight to do that, Knightsbridge Locksmith is here for you. Don’t panic and worry if you’ve been locked out of your flat or apartment; just get in touch with our team of locksmiths on 07309909989, and we’ll resolve your issue quickly.
Whether you’re the owner of the flat, are renting it as a tenant, or are the landlord, we can help you get back inside fast. We offer essential assistance to customers all over London when they need us to unlock their door, assist with a lock change, or provide answers over the phone.
When you call us, we won’t make you wait for a locksmith to arrive. We can get there as quickly as 30 minutes, even on a weekend, when you need us to fix a jammed latch or install a brand new gearbox for your door. We deliver a first-class service to solve your issues and turn a stressful event into a pleasant one when you can finally get back inside.
What’s more, when you talk to our team member beforehand, we will let you know about all of the pricing structures for work completed, as well as show you examples of the locks you can have installed. We stock budget locks if you’re leasing a property, or high-security locks if you live in an apartment that you own.
When you need urgent help, our 24/7 emergency locksmith service in Knightsbridge is always available for you.
If it’s a case of a lost key, we can help you install a lockbox so you don’t have to carry your keys around with you. Please note, we cannot handle vehicle or car lockouts.
Any good locksmith can gain access to a property without causing damage to the door, door frame or lock. We will use various techniques to obtain access, such as picking the lock or bypassing the latch.
This is possible for cylinder locks, but we also have other tips and tricks to open stuck nightlatches and complicated mechanisms.
We will always try to open a lock by picking it first which is the least invasive method, but there are times when we will need to bypass it. We will explain all points to you before we continue to unlock a door using our methods.
If the key isn’t turning in the lock, then we have a number of options to still gain access if the lock barrel is blocked. We will first diagnose the issue, and if possible, we will take the lock apart and fix it, or replace the cylinder entirely.
After we have exhausted all other options to deal with your flat lockout, we can use precise drilling techniques. This means the lock itself is drilled, not the door or frame, so we can replace the lock and give you a replacement key.
Our locked out of flat service in London can help with a wide variety of problems, including:
If you’ve made the mistake of getting locked out without a spare key left with a partner or a close friend, then we can help. We’ll need consent and ID to get you back into the flat, but once we do, we can cut you a new one if we install a new lock for you.
There are multiple instances where a smart lock can lock you out of your flat. You might have forgotten the password or code, and our services eliminate the need to install a brand new lock. We can rewire the lock and reconnect the power supply with a new battery to get you back inside.
We are unable to fit a new lock on a shared entry building or unit unless you are the building manager who is authorising it. We can show you a range of communal entry options, including intercom systems and digital locks, and we can coordinate with a concierge if required.
When you’ve been using a worn key for a long time without getting a new one cut, one day it might snap in the lock or get stuck. We don’t recommend putting pressure on the lock, as you could damage it. Instead, call our services, and we can perform a full key extraction service.
With many years of operating in Knightsbridge, you can rest assured that we are familiar with flats and apartments in the area. We’re here for you 24/7 and will get you back inside without damaging your lock, door, or door frame.
Our locksmiths have all the parts we need to fix any issues, and we can take multiple payment options, including withdrawing cash locally to pay with, using a credit or debit card, contactless payments, or bank account transfers. You can be sure we will always offer you the best option, so you won’t need to spend extra cash on a product you don’t need.
Get in touch now for fast apartment locksmith services whenever you need to get in. We will provide all of the options before we do any work, so you can choose whether you want to install a budget lock on your home or upgrade to a more secure BS3621 lock, which is also insurance-approved.
Our skilled locksmiths will always try to use non-destructive methods first to save the lock and perform repairs if it is more cost-effective, rather than simply replacing it like-for-like.
For 24-hour assistance when you’ve been locked out of your flat, with affordable and fair pricing, contact us on 07309909989.
We have lots of different specialist tools and techniques that we use to gain access to a door that doesn’t require us to damage the lock. If we’ve tried all other options, then we can use a drill to remove the lock completely and install a new one.
We offer a 24/7 service, and we aim to get to most of our customers in the London area within just 30 to 60 minutes. It might be a little longer or even quicker in some cases, depending on the traffic at the time of your call and the location of our on-call locksmith.
