Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much do locksmiths in South Shields charge?

    You can expect to pay between £65 and £95 to hire a locksmith in South Shields during normal working hours.


    If you need emergency locksmith services, or you contact us out of hours, you’ll likely be charged more – but you can relax knowing that the issue will be dealt with efficiently.


    The parts needed will impact the cost of a locksmith in South Shields, too. For example, higher-quality parts will cost the most but tend to last longer and resist lock snapping and bumping. 


    Likewise, the more time needed to be spent on the job, the more you’ll pay to cover labour costs. 


    Here at NLS Security, we will happily provide a free, no-obligation quote for the locksmith services required. We’ll offer a clear breakdown of our costs, allowing you to see exactly what your money is being spent on.


  • What should I do if my key snaps in the lock?

    If your key has snapped in the lock when you’ve gone to turn it and lock or unlock your door, the best thing to do is call our locksmiths in South Shields and wait.


    You might be able to remove the broken key from the lock yourself, but you don’t want to end up pushing it further inside your lock.


    Our locksmiths have vast knowledge and experience when it comes to door locks and will deal with the issue safely and efficiently. We’ll use only the most reliable tools to extract the broken key from the lock – ensuring minimal damage and disruption.


    To find out more about our locksmith services in South Shields, don’t hesitate to call 0191 238 6000.


  • How long will it take a professional locksmith to change a lock?

    It usually depends on the type of lock you currently have fitted, but it shouldn’t take our locksmiths in South Shields long to change a lock.


    A simple like-for-like change will take us half an hour (if not less). If your lock is broken or faulty, or the door isn’t sitting correctly in the aperture, it will take our locksmith longer to diagnose the problem.


    Our locksmiths in South Shields will be able to offer a more accurate timescale once we know a little more about your requirements and the amount of work required.  So, why not get in touch?


  • Will your locksmiths take long to get to me?

    The locksmith services you need and the urgency of the job can affect response times.


    If you need an emergency locksmith in South Shields, we’ll do everything we can to reach you within the hour. For non-emergency cases, we’ll usually get to you within 1-2 hours.


    The traffic and driving conditions will impact the time it takes for our locksmiths in South Shields to arrive. However, we’ll always keep you in the loop so you know when to look out for us.
