Common reasons people use a locksmith

22/2/2022

 
Collaborative post | You may not think much about locksmiths, especially if you’ve never needed one before or know what services they provide – they help you if you ever get locked out of your house but they actually do much more than that! 

If you do think that you need a locksmith or if any of the following situations seem familiar, then find a Portsmouth locksmith and see how they can help you.

​Broken keys

If you have ever gotten your keys stuck in your lock then you know how frustrating it can be to try and get it out, chances are that you probably wrestled with it a little too much and ended up breaking it off in the lock. A locksmith can get this broken piece out of the lock without causing any damage which means you will not have to get it replaced. They should also thoroughly clean out the lock for you to prevent this situation from reoccurring.

Unlock a car door

Locksmiths do not only unlock the doors to your home, but they can also help you get into a locked car if needed. They have specialist tools to get the car open if your keys are locked inside or broken – but you will need to provide proof that you own the vehicle before they will go ahead with this.

Change your locks

Sometimes you may wish to have your locks changed or add more locks to your home to help make it more secure. If you have been the victim of a break-in or had your keys stolen, then you should hire a professional locksmith to come and make some changes to your home security. They can fit new locks securely and ensure they are completely tamper-proof. You can also get some advice from them about what other ways you can make your home safer and the best security system for you.

Lock repair

If you find that your lock is stiff, your key is getting stuck, or it is not locking securely then you should find a local locksmith to fix it for you. More often than not, a locksmith will be able to repair the lock completely without needing to replace it. A dodgy lock is usually caused by general wear and tear and you can avoid the need for repairs by getting your locks cleaned regularly – another service that locksmiths provide.

Emergency services

Sometimes locksmiths are needed urgently to resolve a problem for you such as being locked out of your house, office, or car. In these situations, you will need to call an emergency locksmith that offers 24-hour services. When we get locked out, we can usually get someone with a spare key or find another way in, but if this is not possible then you should find a local locksmith near to your location as they can sometimes get to you within the hour. Emergency locksmiths should be available at any hour of the day or night, even those inconvenient times when no one else is picking up their phone!
