Emergency Lockout Frome
Locked out anywhere from Bath to Yeovil? Emergency lockouts are the job we attend most across the BA area — we're usually at the door within half an hour, and specialist opening techniques mean most lockouts end with you back inside and the original lock intact.

Moving house, a tenant change or lost keys — we change locks across the whole BA area in a single visit, from £39, fitting British Standard and anti-snap cylinders that satisfy home insurance.
Lock Repair Frome
Between Bath's Georgian terraces and the stone cottages of Frome and Shepton Mallet, this area has more period locks than most — and we'd always rather service an original mortice lock than replace it. Stiff, seized or sticking locks are usually freed on the spot.

Jammed patio doors and uPVC mechanisms stuck in the locked position are everyday work across the BA area. We open the door cleanly, then repair or replace the multipoint mechanism, gearbox or cylinder — usually in a single visit.

What Frome Customers Say
The uPVC front door in Radstock needed lifting and slamming to lock for months. New mechanism fitted in under an hour and it clicks shut first time now.
Moved into a place in Radstock and had every lock changed the same week. Anti-snap cylinders throughout, tidy work, and he left us all the old locks as asked.
Back door lock at our Shepton Mallet house seized solid over winter. Freed, cleaned and working again in one visit — and honest enough to say it didn't need replacing.
Window locks upstairs in Shepton Mallet had never worked since we moved in. All four sorted in a single visit for the insurance renewal. Quick and reasonably priced.
Locked myself out in Street with the keys visible on the windowsill, which somehow made it worse. He was there fast, got me in cleanly and never made me feel daft about it.
New front door cylinder and matching keys for our house in Street, fitted the day after I called. Friendly, quick, and the quote was the final price.

Frome Locksmith FAQs
Will my home insurance accept the locks you fit?
Yes — we fit BS3621 mortice locks and TS007-rated cylinders, the standards most home insurance policies ask for. If your policy names a specific standard, tell us on the phone and we'll bring the right lock.
Do you work with landlords and letting agents in Frome?
Yes — tenant changeovers, lost-key lock changes and urgent lockouts are everyday work for us, including Bath's student lets. Invoices are provided for every job.
My door handle is loose or floppy — what does that mean?
On a uPVC or composite door, a floppy handle usually means the gearbox inside the multipoint mechanism has failed. We can normally replace the gearbox alone rather than the whole mechanism.
How long does a lock change take?
A standard cylinder change takes around 30 minutes; a mortice lock or multipoint mechanism around an hour. Nearly all lock changes in the BA area are completed in a single visit.
Can you open garages, sheds and outbuildings?
Yes. Garage doors, shed padlocks, gates and outbuildings are all covered across the BA area, whether you've lost the key or the lock has seized.
Can you cut new keys on site?
For most standard cylinders, yes — replacement keys are cut at the van during the same visit, so a snapped or lost key doesn't have to mean a trip into town.
I've just moved house in Frome — should I change the locks?
We'd recommend it. You can't know how many keys previous owners, tenants or tradespeople still hold, and a full change with anti-snap cylinders is usually done in one visit.
Locksmith Cover Across Frome and the BA Postcode Area
When you call a locksmith in Frome, you're calling a team that already knows the BA postcode area — Bath, Radstock, Shepton Mallet, Street and Yeovil included. That local knowledge is what keeps response times down, whatever time of day or night you call. Our Bath team covers the whole BA area, so Frome gets the same fast response.
What BA Postcode Coverage Means for You
BA is a big postcode area to cover properly, so we don't rely on a single locksmith trying to be everywhere at once. Several locksmiths work across Frome and the wider area day and night, which is why the 15-30 minute response holds up even when things get busy.
What Happens When You Call
You'll speak to a real person, not a script. We'll ask a few quick questions — what kind of lock, whether you're locked out or the lock itself has failed, and roughly where in Frome you are — so the locksmith heading your way already knows what to bring. You'll get a price before anyone starts work, and that price won't change once you've agreed it, regardless of the time or day.
Moving Into a New Home in Frome
Moving home in Frome? Changing the locks before you move in is one of the simplest security steps you can take. You can't know how many keys are still out there from previous owners, tenants or tradespeople, and a standard cylinder change is usually sorted in one visit, with locks from £25 and the fitting quoted up front.
Anti-Snap Cylinders and Everyday Security
Many of the uPVC doors around Frome, especially on estates built in the 1990s and 2000s, were originally fitted with standard euro cylinders that offer little resistance against snapping. Upgrading to an anti-snap, British Standard cylinder is one of the most cost-effective security improvements you can make to a uPVC door, and it's often a like-for-like swap that takes less time than people expect. If your current cylinder sticks in cold weather or feels loose, that's usually a sign it's worth having checked.
After Losing Your Keys
Lost keys, rather than keys mislaid somewhere at home, are worth taking seriously — especially if anything on the keyring could identify where they open. A same-day cylinder change is usually possible, and if you're locked out while you wait, we'll get you back inside first and sort the lock change once you're safe indoors.
Whatever's brought you here — a lockout in Frome, a jammed mechanism nearby, or a security upgrade before winter — the same call gets the same answer: a locksmith on the way within 15-30 minutes, a clear price, and no call-out fee. Call 0333 344 6467 any time, day or night.
