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.
We had been fighting with the front door of our terrace for weeks before it stopped turning altogether, right as guests were due. The locksmith worked the mechanism free rather than drilling straight through it, then showed us how to stop it happening again.
Our houseboat door swelled shut after a run of wet weather and neither of us could shift it with anything we had on board. Someone came out from Shoreham within the hour, eased the lock apart without damaging the frame, and left it working smoother than it had in months.
Needed help quickly for an elderly relative near Mile Oak on a wet Friday night. Polite, quick, and did not try to sell us anything we did not need.

FAQ
Looking for a reliable locksmith near me in Shoreham-by-Sea? 24-hour, same-day emergency locksmith service
Shoreham-by-Sea grew up around its harbour, where the River Adur meets the sea, and that working history still shapes the town. Old timber houseboats sit moored along the riverbank, the art-deco airport terminal stands just outside the centre, and locksmiths here cover everything from seafront flats to older terraces inland. Call-outs stretch from Kingston Buci and the harbourside streets out to Lancing, Sompting, Mile Oak, Portslade Village and Hangleton, so a fitter used to riverside doors, salt air and mixed housing stock is never far away. Getting to Shoreham-by-Sea takes us 15 to 30 minutes as a rule. When it will take longer, we tell you the truth and let you decide. You will be quoted £39 labour plus a lock from £25 if one is needed, and that lock price has the fitting inside it. We stand behind the work for 12 months. If the part fails or the fitting was at fault, the repair is free, labour and all. DBS checks and insurance are conditions of working here, so whoever turns up carries both.
Our local locksmith network reaches every part of Shoreham-by-Sea and the wider BN postcode area, including surrounding neighbourhoods such as West Sussex, Kingston Buci, Lancing, Mile Oak, Portslade Village.
