Late evening a callout was made regarding a family locked out of their home.
Our emergency locksmith The Newcastle Locksmith attended the lockout situation. The euro lock in a upvc door had been sticking for a while and had now decided to give up completely.
It was a distressing situation for the family who had young children and was made worse by the freezing weather. They had purchased a new door only a year ago but the lock failed leading to a lockout.
The Newcastle Locksmith gained entry very quickly much to the relief of the family. Although the lock had been sticking for a while they had failed to have it seen to and it eventually gave up.
The Newcastle Locksmith changed the lock for a high security lock and also serviced the door. There was no callout fee for the out of hours service and it saved the family more than £100 from the nearest quote.
The Newcastle Locksmith are a low cost 24 hr emergency locksmith with no callout fee.

A sticky lock can quickly turn into a frustrating lockout situation, leaving you stranded or unable to access your property. Dirt, debris, or worn-out internal components often cause locks to jam, making them difficult to turn. Regular maintenance, such as lubrication, can help prevent these issues. If the problem persists, a locksmith can provide quick and professional assistance to repair or replace the faulty lock. Addressing a sticky lock early can save time, stress, and unexpected lockout emergencies.
