They were incredibly skilled and knowledgeable and finished the job quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this locksmith company.

Andrew B

Fantastic, can't fault anything. I called about a broken front door lock, and they were out and had it fixed within the hour. Very pleased, thank you,

Abel D

Excellent service thanks for getting back to me immediately and calling out so quickly. Definitely recommend your services

VIKKI V

Fast, courteous and professional. Would recommend and use again.

Gary C

Locked out first thing near the Town Hall after the door slammed behind me. Rang, and a fella arrived, got the front lock open and let me straight in with no harm done. Polite and quick. Couldn't have asked for more.

Ailsa W

Our back door lock had been seizing for a while and jammed solid one night with us shut in. I rang round and this lot were the only ones out at that hour. He found the lock worn through, fitted a new BS3621 one, and sorted the loose handle too. Fair, no drama.

Cameron S

Just took on a flat in Waterloo and had every lock changed the day I got the keys. Booked for the evening, he did both doors, tested the keys with me, and ran through exactly what he'd put on. Reasonable price, no mess left behind.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can a locksmith reach me in Ashton-under-Lyne?
Our emergency locksmith Ashton-under-Lyne service aims to have a local engineer at your door within 15–30 minutes of your call. We have teams based throughout the OL postcode area, so you won't be waiting long wherever you are in the city or surrounding Greater Manchester area.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No — Emergency Locksmith 24 charges no call-out fee. You only pay for the work carried out. We'll give you a clear, fixed price before we start and won't proceed without your agreement.
Can you open my door without damaging the lock?
In the majority of cases, yes. Our engineers are trained in non-destructive entry techniques, which means your lock stays intact and doesn't need replacing. If we do need to drill, we'll always tell you beforehand and carry suitable replacements on the van.
How much does a locksmith cost in Ashton-under-Lyne?
Labour starts from £39 and locks from £25, with no call-out charge. The exact cost depends on the type of lock and job required — but we'll always quote you a fixed price before starting work. No surprises on the bill.
Do you cover the whole of Ashton-under-Lyne and nearby areas?
Yes. Our local locksmith near me service covers all OL postcodes — from Ashton-under-Lyne city centre right out to surrounding areas including Greater Manchester, Hurst, Waterloo, St Michael's, Hartshead. If you're in the OL postcode area, we can reach you.
Are your locksmiths qualified and insured?
Absolutely. Every Emergency Locksmith 24 engineer is fully trained, DBS-checked, and carries public liability insurance. We only fit locks from established, trusted manufacturers — British Standard-approved wherever possible — and back all our work with a 12-month parts and labour warranty.
It's the middle of the night and I'm stood outside my house. How quickly can someone come out?
The centre, St Michael's, Waterloo and Cockbrook sit close, so someone reaches you quickly. Hurst, Hartshead, Guide Bridge and Crowhill run further out and take a bit longer when traffic backs up around the market or after heavy rain. At the busiest points of the day the wait can grow, and we'll quote you the true number, not a wishful one.
The door locks fine but the handle is really stiff to lift. Is it about to fail?
A handle that rises but leaves the bolts sitting, or one gone stiff, points straight at the multipoint case in the shutting edge. That case drives the locking points, and once it tires it stops engaging them. We carry replacements to fit the common makes and change the unit the same visit on most doors.
They tried to force the door but didn't get in. Should I still change the locks?
Getting the door locking is the first move, the upgrade the second. Where the barrel was snapped we fit a snap-resistant barrel to current standard, we build up the keeps and strike that took the strain, and we true the leaf so it pulls to and holds properly.
My mum lives just outside Ashton-under-Lyne. Can you get to her or is she out of your patch?
We work right across Ashton and its estates. Dukinfield and Stalybridge are their own Tameside towns next door, and Droylsden and Audenshaw are separate again to the west. Mossley is a distinct town up the valley, and Oldham is a separate town to the north. All of them are on our patch, so wherever the job sits in this part of Tameside, we can get to it.
