I contacted the Emergency Locksmith 24 and they were extremely helpful right from the start. They provided me with a quick appointment and showed up on time ready to do the job. They were incredibly skilled and knowledgeable and finished the job quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this locksmith company.
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,
Excellent service thanks for getting back to me immediately and calling out so quickly. Definitely recommend your services
Fast, courteous and professional. Would recommend and use again.
Our front door mechanism jammed solid on a Bobblestock estate on a wet Tuesday evening, right when we had guests due. Someone was at the house within half an hour and had it working again without any fuss.
The old rim lock on our Hunderton terrace had grown stiffer for weeks, then packed in for good one evening. The locksmith who came out swapped it for something modern in under an hour, no drama, no mess.
We'd had a run of bad luck with a stiff lock on our house near Belmont, the kind that only played up first thing in the morning. Rather than forcing a quick fix, he worked out why the barrel had worn and what would stop it recurring, which we appreciated.

FAQ
Looking for a reliable locksmith near me in Hereford? 24-hour, same-day emergency locksmith service
Hereford's identity is stitched into its cathedral close, where the Mappa Mundi and the chained library still draw visitors past sandstone walls older than most of the doors we work on. Down in Portfields and Widemarsh, close enough to the centre to hear the bells, terraces and courtyard cottages carry a real mix of ironmongery: some Victorian rim locks nobody has touched in decades, some recent multipoint upgrades bolted on top. Cross the Wye into Hunderton and the streets open out into semis and inter-war bungalows, the kind where a swollen back door or a slipped handle is the usual midnight call rather than anything dramatic. Tupsley climbs the hill east of the centre with its bay-windowed villas and later infill, while Westfields, out past the racecourse, mixes solid 1930s semis with pockets of newer build. Bobblestock, the newest of the eight, is mostly 1990s and 2000s estate housing, composite doors, multipoint mechanisms, the sort of lock that fails all at once rather than gradually. Bullinghope sits on the southern edge where the city gives way to cider orchards and grazing land for the cattle this county is known for; a call there means a longer run past hedgerows rather than housing blocks. Belmont, the largest of the estates, holds much of the city's post-war stock and keeps a locksmith busiest on a Friday night. Whichever door you're standing at, timber-framed in the old centre or pebble-dashed out towards Belmont, someone local can reach it fast, day or night, whatever the lock. It usually takes 15 to 30 minutes to reach anywhere in Hereford. Ask when you call and you get the real number for that hour, not a script. Whatever lock we quote, the fitting is part of that price. Locks start at £25 and labour is £39 on top. Should anything we fitted play up inside 12 months, we come back and put it right, parts and labour covered. It is a DBS-checked, insured professional who turns up, whatever time of night you call.
Our local locksmith network reaches every part of Hereford and the wider HR postcode area, including surrounding neighbourhoods such as Herefordshire, Portfields, Widemarsh, Hunderton, Tupsley. From the city centre out to the edges of the HR1-HR4 range, engineers are positioned to respond inside the 15–30 minute window we promise.
Labour starts from £39, locks from £25, and every job comes with a 12-month parts-and-workmanship warranty — no call-out fee, no hidden extras.
