How a quote works from SE1

Quote

How we price a visit from SE1

Inspect the lock, speak the figure, start only when you say yes. That holds for a cylinder behind Vauxhall station and a 2am lockout on Albert Embankment. Service detail: residential unlocks, door maintenance, emergency locksmith, commercial locksmith, burglary repairs, safe lockout.

From

What from means on this page

Each from-cost is a starting band for a straightforward job in social hours, with common hardware and street access. An unlock from £95 assumes we can open without drilling. A cylinder from £110 assumes a standard euro on a square door. Night work, dual locks, BS 3621 and restricted keyways sit above the floor.

Night

Night rates, weekends and the surcharge

Late evening rises to £110/hr. After midnight it is £125 to £160/hr. We name the band on the phone and confirm it at the door. How we move after dark: emergency locksmith. Forced doors: burglary repairs.
