Tell us what help you need

Include your postcode, the type of door or lock and what is happening. Jon may ask for photographs after your first message if they will help identify the parts required.

    What happens next

    Clear advice before any work begins

    Jon will review the information you provide and may ask a few questions to identify the likely fault. Where the problem can be assessed from your description and photographs, the available options and likely costs will be explained before attendance.

    For emergency work, call rather than waiting for a form response. Current availability depends on Jon’s location, traffic and the jobs already in progress.

    • Your postcode and the type of property
    • Whether the door is timber, uPVC, composite or aluminium
    • Whether the key turns, the handle moves or the door can be secured

    Before you get in touch

    What should I do if I am locked out right now?

    Call 01707 242874 for current emergency availability. Calling is faster than submitting the enquiry form when you need immediate help.

    How quickly can you attend?

    Arrival time depends on your location, traffic and work already in progress. Jon will provide an honest estimate when you call.

    Do you charge a call-out fee?

    There is no separate call-out fee. The likely options and costs are explained before work begins wherever the fault can be identified in advance.

    Can I send photographs of the lock or door?

    Yes. Start with the enquiry form or a telephone call. Jon can then explain which photographs will be most useful for identifying the lock, mechanism or replacement part.

    Do you cover homes and commercial properties?

    Yes. Active Lock Centre works for homeowners, tenants, landlords, estate agents, shops, offices, schools and managed properties throughout the service area.
