LANCASHIRE LOCKSMITH • HOMES & BUSINESSES

From £200 · call-out and labour rates
After a break-in or attempted entry, securing the property is a priority. Lancashire Locksmith helps with damaged locks, emergency make-safe work, temporary boarding and replacement security hardware.
If an intruder may still be present or someone is in immediate danger, move to a safe place and call 999. For a non-emergency report, contact the police through their usual reporting channels. Avoid disturbing damaged entry points until the police advise you that repairs can proceed.
When it is safe, describe the affected door or window, whether it closes and whether the lock still works. Tell us if the frame or glazing is damaged. This helps us discuss what can be made secure and whether temporary boarding may be appropriate.
We assess the damage, explain suitable repairs and discuss the cost before work starts. Options may include replacement cylinders, mortice locks, door hardware or temporary protection. More extensive door, frame or glazing damage may require additional specialist work.
Keep photographs and invoices if your insurer requests them, following police advice about evidence. Check any insurer requirements before choosing replacement locks. Burglary repair work is listed from £200; the scope, parts, attendance and labour determine the final charge.
