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.
Bolt on the back door seized solid and wouldn't shift either way. The chap sorted it there and then, no drama, and showed me why it had stuck. Sound job all round.
I run a small B&B near the castle and a guest jammed the front lock with everyone's keys shut inside on a busy Saturday. Rang in a panic, got a clear answer on when someone would land, and the fella had us open before the next check-in. Proper professional the whole way through, honestly a relief.
Bought a house on Heron Hill and wanted the old locks swapped for something that meets BS3621 for the insurer. Quick, tidy, and he ran through exactly what he was putting on without any bother.

FAQ
Looking for a reliable locksmith near me in Kendal? 24-hour, same-day emergency locksmith service
Kendal took its name, the Auld Grey Town, from the grey limestone fronting its buildings, sat on the River Kent just short of the Lake District. The old street hides yards and ginnels behind the main run, and Kendal Castle stands ruined on the hill east of the water. We work all of it: the terraces around Kirkbarrow and Sandylands, the homes at Hallgarth, the mixed yards up at Mintsfeet, the estate on Heron Hill, the railway settlement at Oxenholme, and Castle Green below the castle mound. Locked out or a key snapped in the door, we deal with it. Expect us in 15 to 30 minutes across Kendal. On the rare day that slips, the person answering tells you an honest time instead. A replacement lock starts at £25 with fitting built into the quote, and labour is a flat £39. The lock and the work that went into fitting it are both guaranteed for 12 months. Every locksmith technician on our books has passed a DBS check and is covered by full insurance.
Our local locksmith network reaches every part of Kendal and the wider LA postcode area, including surrounding neighbourhoods such as Cumbria, Kirkbarrow, Sandylands, Hallgarth, Mintsfeet. From the city centre out to the edges of the LA9 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.

Our engineers fit British Standard BS3621 mortice locks and insurance-approved anti-snap cylinders across the LA postcode area, suiting modern uPVC doors and older period properties alike.
If your existing lock is sticking, stiff, or starting to fail, a quick repair visit usually restores it without a full replacement — keeping costs down while keeping security intact.

uPVC doors fail in three common ways: the gearbox wears out, the handle snaps, or the multipoint mechanism jams. Our Kendal engineers carry replacement gearboxes, handles, hinges, and cylinders for every major brand on every van — meaning most uPVC faults are diagnosed and repaired on the same call-out, with no second visit needed.
uPVC repairs start from £79, and emergency uPVC entries from £39, with the exact fixed price quoted before any work begins.
