Bethnal Green, Haggerston and Columbia Road, day and night

Common lock problems we fix in E2

Older doors, shared entrances and busy nights out in Shoreditch all play a part in the calls we get from this postcode.

Locked out after a night out

Shoreditch and Bethnal Green are busy late, and plenty of our E2 call-outs come after midnight from people whose keys stayed in a bar or taxi. We get you back through your own front door quietly, using damage-free entry methods first.

Communal door won't lock

Many E2 flats share a street door with a worn night latch or a failing closer. A faulty communal lock puts every flat in the building at risk, so we repair or replace it and leave the residents with working keys.

Old mortice lock seized

Georgian and Victorian houses around Columbia Road often still have original mortice locks. When one seizes, we free it where the mechanism is sound, or fit a modern BS 3621 deadlock that suits the existing door.

Locksmith E2 FAQs

Can you get to Bethnal Green in the middle of the night?

Yes. We run a 24-hour service, and night-time calls in E2 are handled the same way as daytime ones, with an arrival estimate and a fixed price before we set off.

My landlord owns the lock. Can you still help?

We can let you in and make the door secure. For replacing a landlord's lock, we'll usually ask you to check with them first, or we can speak to them directly with your permission.

Can you repair an original Victorian lock rather than replace it?

Often, yes. If the case and mechanism are sound, we service or repair it. Where it no longer meets insurance standards, we'll explain the options, including a modern lock that suits the door.

Do you fix communal entrance doors on E2 estates?

We do, for managing agents, housing associations and residents' groups. We repair night latches, door closers and entry locks on shared street doors.

What if my key has broken inside the lock?

We remove the broken piece with specialist extraction tools. If the lock was damaged along the way, we replace it on the same visit.
