South Gloucestershire Locksmith & Security is a locksmith and security specialist serving Bristol and the surrounding South Gloucestershire area. The company presents itself as a local alternative to call centres, emphasising direct contact with a locksmith, no call-out charge and no VAT, alongside a 24-hour emergency service. Its stated average response time is 30 minutes, and it describes its team as fully insured and DBS checked.

The team consists of five locksmiths covering Bristol, Yate, Chipping Sodbury, Thornbury, Bradley Stoke, Filton, Patchway, Kingswood and nearby areas. The business works with homeowners, landlords, estate agents and commercial clients, handling both emergency lockouts and planned security upgrades.

Emergency locksmith service

The emergency service operates 24 hours a day and covers lockouts, non-destructive entry, broken key removal and urgent lock failures. The company also responds to burglary damage, offering emergency boarding up and lock repairs or replacements to secure the property. For probate and repossession cases, it provides discreet legal entry, changes locks and secures the property the same day.

Residential locksmith work

For homes, the company installs new locks on wooden, composite and steel doors, including insurance-approved locks. It carries out lock repairs and door or window security upgrades, and fits anti-snap and 3-star cylinders designed to resist forced entry. Smart lock installation and configuration for app-controlled access is also offered for homes and managed properties.

A significant part of the residential work focuses on uPVC doors and windows. The company repairs and adjusts stiff handles, doors that will not lock and dropped uPVC doors, and replaces faulty gearboxes and multi-point locking mechanisms. It also realigns doors by adjusting hinges, keeps and locking mechanisms, aiming to avoid unnecessary full-door replacement.

Commercial security services

It installs master key systems and access control, and carries out security lock upgrades intended to meet insurance requirements. The company states that it regularly supports estate agents, HMOs, rental properties and commercial units.
