Leicester-based locksmith serving the city and surrounding areas since 2015. We answer the phone, show up when we say, and price the job before we start.
Leicester Locksmiths started in 2015 because we kept hearing the same complaints from local residents: rogue locksmiths charging extortionate call-out fees, turning up hours late, or doing shoddy work and disappearing. We thought we could do better. Turns out, Leicester agreed.
Over the past decade, we've helped thousands of people across Leicester City, Oadby, Wigston, Birstall, and the surrounding towns. We've opened doors for people locked out in the middle of the night, secured properties after break-ins, and fitted upgrades that give homeowners genuine peace of mind.
We're a Leicester business, staffed by Leicester people, working for Leicester residents. When you call us, you speak to someone who knows the roads, knows the area, and will actually be the one showing up at your door.
Every job gets the same treatment. We tell you the cost before we start, work cleanly, and stay accountable if something isn't right. That's the baseline, not a bonus.
These commitments apply on every job: 3pm on a Tuesday or 3am on New Year's Eve, same standards.
We carry full public liability cover on every job. If anything goes wrong on your property, you're covered.
Every person we send to your home has been background checked. You'll know who's coming before they arrive, and you can trust who you open the door to.
We give you the cost before we start. No hidden charges, no extras added on after the job is done. What we quote is what you pay.
We aim to be with you within 30 minutes across Leicester. We'll give you an honest ETA on the phone and call ahead if anything changes.
When you call, you speak to someone who actually knows Leicester. We're not a national company with a local number. We live and work here.
We open locks without destroying them where possible. Most of the time you won't need a replacement at all. It saves time and money.
When we get to a job, we assess what's needed and tell you clearly. We don't recommend unnecessary replacements or try to sell you upgrades you haven't asked about. If your existing lock is fine, we'll say so.
Most of our work in Leicester comes from repeat customers and referrals. People come back because the first job was done right and the price was fair. They tell their neighbours for the same reason.
If we can't do the job, we'll tell you that too and point you in the right direction. We'd rather lose a job than take on something and do it badly.
We cover the whole of Leicester city and the surrounding towns. All Leicester postcodes: LE1, LE2, LE3, LE4, LE5, LE7, LE8, LE9 and surrounding areas. If you're within about 15 miles of the city centre, we can usually be with you inside 30 minutes.
Not sure if we cover your area? Just call and ask. If we can't get to you, we'll say so.
"I was sceptical after a bad experience with another locksmith years ago. These guys were completely different: clear price on the phone, showed up when they said they would, got in without damaging the door."
"Recommended to me by a neighbour in Birstall. Called them at 6am on a Sunday after leaving my keys at work. Friendly on the phone, fast arrival, no complaints. Would use again without question."
"We use them for our rental properties in Leicester. They're reliable, turn up on time, and the tenants are always happy with how they're treated. That matters when it's not your own home."
If we can't open your lock, you pay nothing. We'll tell you on the phone if it's a job we can't do before we set off.
You'll know the cost before we start. The price we quote is the price on the invoice.
We aim to reach you within 30 minutes across Leicester. If we're delayed, we'll call and give you an updated ETA.
