What affects the price
No two locksmith jobs are identical, which is why fixed price lists mislead. The honest factors are:
- Type of lock and door — a standard cylinder change costs less than a full multipoint mechanism
- Time of day — nights, weekends and bank holidays reflect out-of-hours attendance
- Parts needed — locks, gearboxes and cylinders vary in price
- Complexity — non-destructive entry versus drilling and replacing
- Access and location within the service area
How our quotes work
Every call follows the same pattern: you describe the problem, we ask what we need, and you get a clear quote before anything is booked. The quote covers labour and the expected parts.
If the situation turns out differently on arrival, the price is re-confirmed with you before any work starts — never after. That is the whole policy: no surprises.
Getting the best value
The cheapest quote is not always the cheapest job. A rushed drilling when non-destructive entry was possible costs you a new lock you did not need. Whoever you call — us or anyone else — ask what methods will be used, what parts are included, and whether the quote is fixed before booking.
And if a price sounds too good to be true on the phone, ask what is excluded. A proper quote names the labour, the parts and the total.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a locksmith cost in Brixton?
It depends on the job — the lock type, the time of day and the parts required all affect the price. Rather than publish figures that may not match your situation, we quote every job on the call. Call 07984 547185, describe the problem, and you will get a clear price before anything is booked.
What affects the price of a locksmith visit?
The main factors are the type of lock and door, whether the visit is in normal hours or out of hours, the parts needed, and how complex the work is. A straightforward lock change costs less than a jammed multipoint mechanism that needs opening first.
Do you charge for giving a quote?
No. The quote is given on the call before anything is booked, and it is confirmed again before work starts. There is no obligation to proceed if the price is not right for you.
Does it cost more at night or on bank holidays?
Out-of-hours attendance — nights, weekends and bank holidays — is reflected in the quote, and you will be told the full price on the call before anything is agreed. There are no hidden additions after the work is done.
Is there a separate callout charge?
The quote you receive covers the visit and the work described. It is given as one clear figure on the call, so you know exactly what to expect before the van sets off.
Will I know the price of parts before they are fitted?
Yes. Parts are priced before they are fitted, and the total is confirmed with you before work starts. If a different part is needed once the lock is opened, the revised price is agreed with you first.
