Whether you're moving into a new property and want to replace existing locks for peace of mind, or you've identified weaknesses in your current security setup, we provide expert guidance and precision installation. We stock British Standard locks that meet insurance requirements, including BS3621-certified mortice locks that most home insurance policies now demand.

Our lock installation services include:

  • High-security cylinder lock fitting
  • Mortice lock installation for wooden doors
  • Multi-point locking system installation for uPVC and composite doors

How Much Does a Locksmith Cost in Enfield?

At Key & Lock Fox, we're committed to transparent pricing that reflects fair value for professional service. Unlike some companies operating in the UK market, we never add hidden fees or inflate prices for emergency work.

Typical locksmith costs in Enfield include:

  • Emergency lock out service: Starting from £60-£90
  • Standard lock change: £50-£100 per lock (including parts)
  • Lock repair: £40-£80 depending on complexity
  • Key cutting: From £5 for standard keys, specialist keys from £15
  • Security survey and consultation: Often free with booked work
Several factors influence the final cost of any locksmith service. The time of day, type of lock involved, and whether replacement parts are needed all play a role. However, we always provide a clear quote before starting work, and the price we quote is the price you pay.

When comparing locksmith costs, remember that the cheapest option isn't always the best value. Our experienced team works efficiently, often completing jobs faster than less skilled operators, and our quality workmanship means repairs and installations last. We also offer guarantees on our work, providing additional peace of mind and long-term value.

Key Cutting and Duplication Services

Professional key cutting requires precision equipment and experienced hands. Key & Lock Fox operates advanced key cutting machinery capable of duplicating virtually any key type, from standard Yale and mortice keys to high-security restricted profiles. Our mobile locksmith units carry this equipment, allowing us to cut keys at your location for maximum convenience.

While high street shops like Timpson offer basic key cutting, our service extends to specialist keys that require professional handling. We can duplicate car keys (including transponder programming), restricted security keys with manufacturer authorisation, and antique or unusual key profiles that automated machines can't replicate.

Our key services include:

  • Standard residential key cutting and duplication
  • Mortice and cylinder key copying
  • Window lock and padlock keys
  • Restricted and patented key systems
  • Key cutting from lock - even without an existing key
Many customers ask whether a locksmith can make a new key from a lock when the original is lost. The answer is yes - our skilled team can decode most lock types and create a working key without needing the original. This service proves invaluable when keys are lost or stolen and you don't want the expense of replacing the entire lock. Visit us at our Parsonage Lane location or call for mobile key cutting anywhere in Enfield.

Is It Cheaper to Rekey or Replace Locks?

This is one of the most common questions we hear from Enfield homeowners, and the answer depends on your specific situation. Both rekeying and replacing locks have their place in property security, and understanding the difference helps you make the right choice.

Professional service image 5

Rekeying involves changing the internal pins of a lock so that old keys no longer work. This is typically the more cost-effective option when your existing locks are in good condition but you need to change who has access - perhaps after moving into a new property, ending a tenancy, or if keys have been lost. Rekeying costs approximately 40-60% less than full lock replacement.

Lock replacement becomes the better choice when locks are worn, damaged, or don't meet current security standards. If your locks are older or showing signs of wear, replacing them with modern high-security alternatives provides better protection and often better value long-term. Replacement is also necessary if you want to upgrade to different lock types or add features like anti-snap cylinders.

Our Enfield locksmith team can assess your locks and provide honest advice on which option best suits your needs and budget. We never recommend unnecessary replacement when rekeying would suffice, and we won't cut corners on security just to save a few pounds. Book a free security assessment by calling 2080592380.

How to Choose a Reliable Locksmith in the UK

Selecting a trustworthy locksmith is crucial - you're literally giving someone access to your home or business. Unfortunately, the UK locksmith industry has seen its share of unscrupulous operators. Here's how to ensure you're choosing a legitimate, skilled professional.

Check credentials and affiliations. Reputable locksmiths often belong to trade organisations like the Master Locksmiths Association (MLA) or have verifiable credentials. At Key & Lock Fox, we're proud of our professional standing and happy to verify our qualifications.

Look for local presence. A locksmith with an actual local address in Enfield - like our premises at 42 Parsonage Ln - demonstrates commitment to the community. Be wary of companies with only mobile phone numbers and no verifiable address.

Read genuine reviews. Check Google, Checkatrade, Yell, and other platforms for authentic customer feedback. Patterns in reviews reveal a lot about service quality and reliability.

Get pricing clarity upfront. Trustworthy locksmiths provide clear quotes before starting work. If a company is vague about pricing or mentions "starting from" prices without giving specifics, proceed with caution.

Ask about guarantees. Professional locksmiths stand behind their work. We offer guarantees on all our services because we're confident in our workmanship.

When you call Key & Lock Fox, you're choosing a locksmith with verifiable local experience, transparent pricing, and thousands of satisfied customers across Enfield and North London.

Commonly Asked Questions

How much should a locksmith cost in the UK?
Locksmith costs in the UK typically range from £50-£150 depending on the service required. A standard lock change usually costs £50-£100 including parts, while emergency lock out services range from £60-£90. At Key & Lock Fox, we provide transparent quotes before starting any work, with no hidden call-out charges. The final cost depends on factors like lock type, time of service, and parts needed.
Can a locksmith make a new key from a lock?
Yes, a skilled locksmith can create a new key from a lock even without the original key. This process, called lock decoding, involves reading the internal mechanism to determine the correct key profile. Our Enfield team regularly provides this service for customers who have lost their only key. It's often more cost-effective than replacing the entire lock, especially for high-quality locks in good condition.
How do I choose a reliable locksmith in the UK?
Look for a locksmith with a verifiable local address, positive reviews across multiple platforms, and transparent pricing policies. Check for trade association membership and ask about guarantees on work. Avoid companies that are vague about costs or only provide mobile numbers. Key & Lock Fox operates from 42 Parsonage Ln, Enfield, with verifiable credentials and thousands of satisfied local customers.
Is it cheaper to rekey or replace locks?
Rekeying is typically 40-60% cheaper than full lock replacement. However, replacement becomes the better value when locks are worn, damaged, or don't meet modern security standards. Our locksmiths will honestly assess your locks and recommend the most appropriate and cost-effective solution for your situation. We never push unnecessary replacements when rekeying would serve you just as well.
Can Timpson cut a key without an original key?
High street key cutting services like Timpson typically require an original key to create copies, as they use standard duplication machines. For situations where no original key exists, you need a professional locksmith who can decode the lock and cut a key from scratch. Key & Lock Fox offers this specialist service for Enfield customers who have lost their only key.
What should I do if I'm locked out of my house?
First, check all other possible entry points like windows or back doors that might be open. If you're completely locked out, call a local locksmith like Key & Lock Fox on 2080592380 for emergency assistance. Avoid attempting to force entry yourself, as this often causes expensive damage. Our team typically arrives within 30 minutes and uses non-destructive entry methods wherever possible.
How quickly can a locksmith arrive in Enfield?
Key & Lock Fox typically reaches any location in Enfield within 15-30 minutes for emergency calls. Our base on Parsonage Lane puts us centrally within the borough, and our mobile units are always on the road.
