How much does Emergency locksmiths cost? (2026 price guide)
Emergency call-out fees for lock-outs typically add £60-£120 on top of standard repair costs, with total prices for an evening or weekend lock-out and lock change usually running £120-£280. Overnight or bank holiday call-outs often cost more, typically £150-£350 all-in, while non-destructive entry without damaging the door usually sits at the lower end of that range.
The main factors affecting price are the time of the call-out (daytime, evening, overnight or bank holiday), how the entry is gained, whether the lock needs replacing afterwards, and travel distance to reach the property quickly. Genuine 24-hour firms with local, mobile locksmiths typically respond faster but may charge a premium for guaranteed arrival times.
Ask for the total expected cost, including call-out and parts, before the locksmith travels out, since some emergency firms quote a low call-out fee but add substantial charges once on site.
