Locksmith Walsall

Locked out in Walsall, or dealing with a door that will not lock properly? Locksmith Frith is a local, family run locksmith covering Walsall and the surrounding areas, seven days a week.

We are based just up the road in Burntwood, so Ricky and the team are usually with you quickly rather than sending someone across the region. Every job is done by our own engineers, not subcontracted out, and we carry the most common locks and parts on the van so most jobs are finished in a single visit.

We are fully insured, we give you a price before any work starts, and we use non destructive entry wherever the lock allows it, so you are not paying for a new door as well as a new lock.

Our Locksmith Services in Walsall

Whether it is an emergency lockout at midnight or a lock change you have been meaning to sort for months, we cover the lot.

Emergency entry and lockouts. Locked out of your house, shut out by a snapped key, or a lock that has failed with you on the wrong side of the door. We open the door without damage wherever we can.

Lock changes and new locks. Moving into a new home, a tenant handover, a lost set of keys, or a relationship change. We supply and fit a new lock the same day in most cases.

uPVC door lock repairs. The single most common call we get. A uPVC door that is stiff to lift, will not lock when shut, or has a multipoint mechanism that has given up. Usually a repair rather than a whole new door.

Window locks and patio doors. Window locks that have seized, sliding patio door locks and handles that no longer hold.

Door handles and door adjustment. Handles that have gone floppy or hard to lift, and doors that have dropped in the frame and started catching.

Burglary repairs and boarding up. Damaged doors, forced locks and emergency securing after a break in, including the paperwork your insurer will ask for.

Commercial locksmith work. Shops, offices and units around Walsall. Master keyed systems, fire exit hardware and lock changes when staff leave.

Please note we do not cover car keys or auto locksmith work.

No Hidden Call Out Fees

You get a price before we start, and that is the price you pay. No call out fee bolted on at the end, no surcharge because it turned out to be a Sunday, and no engineer turning up to quote a number that bears no relation to what you were told on the phone.

If we cannot help, we will tell you on the call rather than charge you to find out. Quotes are free.

Lock Types We Fit and Insurance Approved Standards

Most home insurance policies specify a lock standard, and a surprising number of people only discover theirs does not meet it when they come to claim. If you are not sure what you have, send us a photo and we will tell you.

BS3621 five lever mortice locks. The British Standard most insurers ask for on wooden front and back doors. Look for the kitemark stamped on the faceplate.

TS007 three star euro cylinders. The anti snap standard for uPVC and composite doors. The older cylinders fitted as standard on a lot of doors around Walsall can be snapped in seconds, and an upgrade is one of the cheapest security improvements you can make.

Multipoint mechanisms. Hooks, rollers and deadbolts on uPVC and composite doors. We repair these far more often than we replace them.

Night latches and rim locks. Including insurance approved British Standard versions for flats and communal doors.

We will always tell you honestly whether an upgrade is genuinely worth it for your door type, or whether what you already have is doing its job.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Walsall Locksmith Service

How much does a locksmith cost in Walsall?

It depends on the job, the lock and the time of day, which is why we give you a price on the phone before we set off rather than a vague range. There is no call out fee on top, and quotes are free.

Do you offer a 24 hour emergency locksmith service in Walsall?

Yes. We cover emergency lockouts and lock failures around the clock, seven days a week.

How quickly can you get to me in Walsall?

We are based in Burntwood, so Walsall is a short run for us rather than a trek across the region. We will give you a realistic arrival time when you call, and we will ring you if anything changes.

Can I get my locks changed for free?

Not as a rule, but it is worth checking two things. If you are a tenant, a lock failure is usually the landlord’s responsibility. And if the lock was damaged in a break in, most home insurance policies cover replacement, and we can provide the paperwork your insurer needs.

Will you damage my door getting me back in?

Almost never. We use non destructive entry wherever the lock allows it. If a lock genuinely cannot be opened without damage, we will tell you before we start and explain what it means.

Do you cover Bloxwich and Aldridge too?

Yes, along with Brownhills, Pelsall, Walsall Wood, Rushall and the rest of the surrounding areas.
