Services

A secure, accessible property is the cornerstone of peace of mind. Whether you’re a homeowner protecting your family, a business owner safeguarding your assets, or a landlord managing a portfolio of properties, the integrity of your locks and security systems is non-negotiable. When you face a lock-related issue—from the sudden panic of being locked out to the strategic need for a security upgrade—you require more than just a quick fix. You need a professional, reliable, and swift response.

That is where KeyPros comes in.

Based in the heart of London, KeyPros is a specialist locksmith company dedicated to providing an unparalleled standard of service. We proudly serve clients across the capital, as well as the surrounding counties of Essex and Kent. Our reputation is built on a foundation of technical expertise, rapid response times, and an unwavering commitment to our clients’ safety and security. We understand that every call is urgent, which is why our team is available around the clock to provide expert assistance.

On this page, you can explore the seven core services that form the backbone of our business. Each service is delivered with precision, professionalism, and a focus on delivering lasting solutions, not just temporary repairs.

1. Emergency Lockout Service

It happens in a moment of distraction: the door clicks shut behind you, and the keys are sitting on the table inside. Being locked out of your home, office, or vehicle is a frustrating and often stressful experience, particularly outside of standard business hours. Your first thought might be to attempt a DIY solution, but this can easily lead to damaged locks, broken doors, and a much higher cost in the long run.

Our Emergency Lock Out service is designed to be your immediate, stress-free solution. When you call KeyPros, you will speak directly with a professional who understands the urgency of your situation. We dispatch a qualified, fully-equipped locksmith to your location promptly. Our technicians are experts in non-destructive entry techniques, meaning we work diligently to gain you access while preserving the integrity of your existing lock and door. Our goal is a swift, clean, and efficient resolution, getting you back inside your property with minimal fuss and no unnecessary damage.

2. Emergency Lock Repair

A damaged lock is more than an inconvenience; it’s a gaping security vulnerability. Whether your lock has been tampered with, has suffered a mechanical failure, or was damaged during a forced entry attempt, it needs immediate attention. A compromised lock leaves your property, belongings, and occupants at risk.

Our Emergency Lock Repair service is available 24/7 to restore your security without delay. Upon arrival, our locksmith will conduct a thorough assessment of the damage. Using their extensive knowledge of all lock types and brands, they will determine the most effective course of action. In many cases, a complex lock can be expertly repaired on-site, reinstating its full function and security. If the lock is beyond repair, we will explain the situation clearly and can immediately proceed with a replacement (see service #4). We always carry a wide range of high-quality replacement parts and locks in our vans to ensure we can solve your problem in a single visit.

3. Emergency Key Cutting

There are few things more frustrating than a key that is worn, bent, or on the verge of breaking in the lock. If you find yourself forcing a key or it has snapped, it’s a clear sign that you need a replacement immediately to avoid being locked out.

KeyPros provides a fast and precise Emergency Key Cutting service. Our mobile locksmiths are equipped with professional-grade key-cutting machinery, allowing us to create perfect, high-quality duplicates and replacements on-site. We can cut a new key for your standard door locks, UPVC door mechanisms, and even vehicle keys for a wide range of makes and models. This service is ideal when you’ve lost a key and need a spare cut urgently, or when an existing key has become damaged and unreliable. We ensure your new key operates smoothly and reliably from the very first turn.

4. Lock Replacement & Installation

There are many situations that call for a new lock. Perhaps you’ve just moved into a new home and want to ensure no old keys are in circulation (a vital security step!). Maybe your current locks are old, inefficient, or no longer meet insurance company requirements. Or, you may wish to upgrade your property’s security with modern, high-specification locks.

Our Lock Replacement & Installation service covers all these needs and more. We supply and fit a comprehensive range of locks from leading manufacturers, including industry-standard Yale locks, high-security deadbolts, and sophisticated multi-point locking systems for UPVC doors. Our team will provide expert advice on the best locking solutions for each specific door and window on your property, balancing security, convenience, and compliance. All installations are carried out to the highest standards, ensuring your new locks provide robust protection for years to come.

5. Broken Key Extraction

It’s a common scenario: you put your key in the lock, turn it, and feel a sudden snap. Part of the key is now lodged inside the lock cylinder, rendering it unusable. Attempting to remove it with improvised tools like pliers or paperclips often pushes the broken piece deeper and can damage the delicate internal components of the lock.

Our Broken Key Extraction service is the safe and correct way to handle this problem. Our locksmiths use specialised tools and techniques designed specifically for this task. They can carefully manipulate the broken key fragment and remove it from the lock without causing any harm to the mechanism. Once the broken piece is out, we can then cut you a brand-new key for the lock (using your remaining key as a template) or, if the lock has been damaged in the process, we can replace it on the spot.

6. Eviction Locksmith Service

Eviction is a sensitive and legally complex process that requires professionalism, discretion, and strict adherence to legal protocols. As a landlord or court-appointed agent, you need a locksmith service that understands these unique requirements.

KeyPros provides a specialist Eviction Locksmith Service to assist landlords and legal professionals. Our team is experienced in working alongside enforcement officers to ensure a smooth and lawful process. We arrive punctually and in discreet vehicles, ready to change the locks on the property promptly and efficiently once possession is legally secured. This action immediately prevents re-entry by former tenants and secures the property for its next chapter. Our service is reliable, confidential, and fully compliant with all legal standards, giving you one less thing to worry about during a challenging time.

7. Safe Box Opening

A safe is the ultimate guardian of your most valuable possessions, from important documents and cash to jewellery and data drives. The moment a safe fails to open, whether due to a lost combination, a jammed mechanism, or a malfunctioning digital keypad, panic can set in.

Our Safe Box Opening service offers a professional and secure way to regain access. Our technicians are highly trained in the art and science of safe cracking. We utilise a range of non-destructive methods first, employing specialist tools and knowledge to manipulate the lock mechanism. If the safe’s lock is irreparably damaged, we will explain the situation and can perform a professional, clean drilled opening to retrieve your contents. Crucially, we can also repair or replace the safe’s locking mechanism afterwards, restoring it to full working order. We handle every job with the utmost discretion and security.
