Canterbury FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can’t see yours here? Call and ask — someone picks up at any hour of the day or night.

02034112027
How quickly can you reach Canterbury at night?

Normally 30 to 60 minutes across the city, and the ring road moves at night so Wincheap, Hales Place and Sturry are all much the same. If you are inside the walls on a restricted street, say so when you call and we will sort the access out before we set off rather than on your doorstep.

Do I have to prove I live here before you open the door?

Yes, and any locksmith worth calling will ask. It is the only thing that stops us opening doors for the wrong person. Photo ID, a letter or bill addressed to you at the property, or a tenancy agreement all work, and if you have none of those to hand we will tell you what else will do. If you are a tenant locked out of your own home, we can help as long as you can show you live there.

Do you cover the villages, Whitstable and Herne Bay?

Yes — Sturry, Blean, Harbledown, Chartham, Bridge and Littlebourne, and up to Whitstable and Herne Bay on CT5 and CT6. CT1 through CT4 is where we go most often, not a boundary. Tell us the postcode and we will tell you the time.

I searched for a locksmith near me. How near are you really?

Near enough to matter. It depends on not running everything from one yard, and we do not — our locksmiths work from across Canterbury and the area around it, so a locksmith near me Canterbury search should put someone with you in 30 to 60 minutes whatever the hour. If you typed locksmith urgente Canterbury or SOS locksmith Canterbury instead, you have still reached the right number. Give us your postcode on the phone and we will tell you the real time before you agree to anything.

The door was forced and now it will not shut. Can you fix it tonight?

Yes, that is exactly what a night call-out is for. We make the door secure first, whether that means refitting the lock, repairing the frame, or fitting a temporary board across the opening. Tell us when you ring what the door is made of and what has been damaged, and we will bring the parts most likely to be needed. If a new door or frame is needed, we make it safe for the night and tell you what happens next.

Is it worth calling at 3am, or should I wait for morning?

Call. Standing outside your own front door at night, a door that has been forced open or a key snapped in the lock are all reasons not to wait. If it genuinely can wait until morning we will say so on the phone.
