Locked Out – Keys Inside?
Timpson security can gain entry to most locks without having to change the lock, enabling the continual use of your existing set of keys. We can help if you have accidentally left your keys in your house and are now locked out.
Locked Out – Lost Keys?
Timpson Security employs only professional Locksmiths who, using the latest technology and techniques, will help you regain entry into your house. Where possible we will open your door by lock picking or drilling the lock, keeping any potentially costly damage to the surrounding door to a minimum. How we open your door will depend on the type of lock on the door:
We repair & replace all types of locks
Cylinder Rim Locks (Yale Locks)
If you lose keys to a cylinder rim lock (Yale lock) our locksmiths will try and pick the cylinders where possible. If this is not possible, the locksmith will likely have to drill into the lock to open the door and then change the lock barrel. Barrel changes on Yale type locks are generally inexpensive.

Mortice Locks
If you lose keys to a mortice lock, a locksmith will usually drill the lock to gain entry, replace the lock and provide a new set of keys. Alternatively a locksmith could pick the lock to gain entry and then make a new key for the lock. However, making keys is more time consuming and therefore often the more expensive option.
