Locksmiths Gloucester

Emergency locksmith services in Gloucester and Gloucestershire

Locksmiths Gloucester operates a 24-hour emergency locksmith service covering Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud, the Forest of Dean, Worcester, Bristol and surrounding areas. The company states that it aims to reach customers as quickly as possible, often within 30 minutes depending on location, and that its engineers work across the region every day.

The service is contactable by phone around the clock, every day of the year, and offers free quotes. The firm describes itself as a local service without call centres, so callers speak directly to a locksmith.

Emergency callouts and non-destructive entry

The emergency side of the business covers lockouts, lost or stolen keys, broken or snapped keys, faulty or jammed locks, burglary repairs, emergency lock changes, boarding up and urgent UPVC door lock problems. The company says it uses non-destructive entry methods wherever possible to open a door without damaging the door or lock.

Boarding up is available as a 24-hour emergency service, working alongside local emergency services to secure doors and windows and make properties safe.

Lock repairs, replacements and security upgrades

Beyond emergencies, Locksmiths Gloucester carries out lock replacements, anti-snap cylinder upgrades, insurance-approved British Standard locks, mortice lock fitting, lock changes for landlords and letting agents, and full home security upgrades. It states that all parts supplied and fitted are high-quality, tested products designed to meet insurance requirements.

The company also supplies and fits key safes and garage door defenders, which are kept in stock on its vans for immediate installation. It offers a void property inspection service covering insurance aspects with a written report, as well as key holding and alarm fitting and response.

UPVC door and window specialists

UPVC doors are described as one of the most common reasons customers call. The firm repairs and replaces multipoint locking systems, gearboxes and mechanisms, door handles, Euro cylinders, misaligned doors and faulty window locks. Because the vans carry a wide range of parts, most UPVC door repairs are completed in a single visit.

Window work includes boarding up broken windows, replacing damaged friction stays and replacing broken handles and locks. The company can also order and supply new doors, door panels or glass for existing doors.

Master key systems and restricted locks

Locksmiths Gloucester supplies and fits master key systems so that all doors open with one key while user keys can be provided for each lock. It also installs restricted lock systems, which prevent anyone given a key from having it copied without the owner's permission; the company presents these as suitable for flats and rental properties.

Brands, guarantees and professional credentials

The locks supplied and fitted come from manufacturers including Yale, ERA, GU, Winkhaus, Avocet, Union, Asec and Fuhr, among other UK security brands. The company says these products are chosen for reliability, durability and insurance compliance.

Locksmiths Gloucester states that its locksmiths are DBS checked and that the service is fully insured. It offers a 12-month guarantee on parts supplied and fitted, and asks customers to quote their invoice number if a return visit is needed.

Who the company works with

In addition to private households, the firm says it regularly works alongside local authorities, letting agents, landlords, schools, NHS services and insurance companies.
