Locked out, or need a lock changed?
Most locksmith work falls into a few kinds of job: getting back into a home or car, changing locks after a move or a lost key, fixing a uPVC door that won't lock, and upgrading to anti-snap cylinders. Our guide to choosing a locksmith explains what to ask on the phone, what a fair price looks like and how to spot the national call centres that pose as local firms.
How we build the directory
Listings come from Google Maps, then we remove what isn't a local locksmith: key-cutting kiosks, national chains, and the lead-generation networks that list one phone number under dozens of business names. Around a third of Google's UK locksmith listings were removed this way. More about the directory.
