Reviews
I recently used the services of the Emergency Locksmith 24 and I must say, I was highly impressed.

They did a great job, making sure everything was secure and all of the locks worked perfectly. Highly recommend this locksmith company.
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.
Came home from work to find my key just turning and turning in the door of my terrace near West Bank, wouldn't catch at all. Rang them and a lad was there inside twenty minutes, had the cylinder swapped and a couple of new keys cut without making a mess of the door. Sound bloke.
Back door on our place in Farnworth had been stiff for ages and one morning it just wouldn't lock. They came the same afternoon, changed the gearbox in about half an hour and tightened the hinges while they were at it. Far less than the price a window firm had quoted me to do the whole door.
Someone tried to force the front door of my flat in Hough Green during the night and snapped the lock. I phoned first thing and he was round within the hour, made it safe and put anti-snap cylinders on. Wrote up a proper invoice for the insurance and never once tried to sell me extras.

FAQ
Looking for a reliable locksmith near me in Widnes? 24-hour, same-day emergency locksmith service
24/7 emergency locksmith in Widnes, with a local engineer at your door in 15 to 30 minutes across the WA8 postcode. Locked out, snapped a key in the barrel, or got a uPVC door that's stopped locking properly? We cover the whole town, from the terraces around West Bank and the town centre out through Appleton and Farnworth to the newer estates at Upton Rocks and Hough Green. Labour starts from £39, locks from £25, and there's no call-out fee no matter what time you ring. We pick locks open without damage, change and repair locks, sort failed uPVC multipoint mechanisms, board up and make a property safe after a break-in, get snapped keys out of the barrel, and fit insurance-rated BS3621 mortice locks and 3-star anti-snap cylinders. Every part and every hour of labour carries a 12-month warranty. The price is the same whether it's the middle of the day or three in the morning, weekend or bank holiday, and we'll tell you the cost before the engineer sets off. Widnes sits on the Mersey just over the bridge from Runcorn, all under the WA8 postcode, so wherever you are we're usually close by, whether that's near the Gateway by the bridge, up at Hough Green, or out towards Ditton and Halebank. Most jobs round here fall into a few familiar patterns. People get locked out of the rented terraces near the town centre, euro cylinders snap on the older Farnworth and Appleton doors, and the back-door gearboxes give out on the WA8 estates once they've had a decade or more of use. If you've just taken on a place around Upton Rocks or West Bank and want the locks changed so you know who holds a key, we'll book that in as a planned visit instead of an emergency, which keeps the cost down. Call Emergency Locksmith 24 and we'll tell you what's likely gone wrong and what it'll cost before anyone gets in the van.
Our local locksmith network reaches every part of Widnes and the wider WA postcode area, including surrounding neighbourhoods such as Cheshire, Appleton, Farnworth, Ditton, Hough Green.
