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.
Front door lock jammed solid with my little one asleep upstairs. Called late and someone reached me faster than I'd dared hope, and had it open with no fuss. Proper relief that night.
I'd been fighting a back door that wouldn't lock properly for a fortnight, kept catching halfway. The chap who came took the whole mechanism apart on the step, showed me the worn bit, and fitted a replacement there and then. Tidy work, explained every step, no surprises on the bill.
Locked myself out after a quick dash to the shop, keys left on the side just inside the door. Rang around and got through to these. He explained the plan, turned up and sorted it, then waited while I dug out my spare so I wasn't caught short again.

FAQ

Heywood earned the name Monkey Town back when cotton spinning ran the place, and the compact market centre still keeps that old mill-town shape. We work the terraced streets near the middle and the post-war estates out at Darnhill and Back o' th' Moss. Hopwood sits to the south, Heap Bridge leans over toward Bury, and Summit, Captain Fold and Bamford mark the fringes. Locked out, a snapped key, a door that won't shut before bed? Whatever the lock has thrown at you, someone who knows these roads will get it sorted. Callers in Heywood usually wait 15 to 30 minutes. The estimate you get is real, based on where the nearest locksmith actually is. Whatever lock we quote, the fitting is part of that price. Locks start at £25 and labour is £39 on top. Any fault in the first 12 months gets fixed at no charge, whether it lies in the part or in the labour. The locksmith engineer we send is covered by insurance and holds a current DBS certificate.
