I'm locked out of my flat but I can get into the building, can you open just my door?+
Yes, that's the standard job in Bournemouth's converted houses. Your own door opens non-destructively and the communal door never gets touched.
I'm a student in Winton and I've lost my keys, is this going to cost a fortune?+
No call-out fee and an honest price agreed up front before I start. If the lock needs changing because the keys are lost, I'll say so and do it the same visit.
The landlord is away and I'm locked out, can you still help?+
Yes, as long as you can show me you live there once the door is open, which protects you as much as anyone. I work with plenty of Bournemouth landlords and agents and can loop yours in.
My key turns but the door won't open, is that still a lockout job?+
Yes, that's usually the mechanism rather than the key, and it's a normal call-out. I'll diagnose it at the door and open it without damage wherever possible.

Ask Andy to call you back
Most of my Bournemouth lockouts happen in converted buildings, the big Victorian properties around Charminster, Springbourne and Boscombe now carved up into flats, with a shared entrance out front and individual doors inside. The right way in is non-destructive entry on your own door, because forcing anything in a shared building damages what every other tenant relies on too. Nearly all of these openings finish with the door exactly as I found it.
Flats, house shares and student lets
Converted houses collect an odd mix of locks over the years, original mortices, cheap night latches, replacement euro cylinders, sometimes all on one door. That mix is exactly what picking and bypassing techniques are for, and it's why I get through most Bournemouth lockouts quickly. Around Winton and Charminster the student houses keep me busy with lost keys and door-slam lockouts, and September tenancy changeovers bring a rush of them.
If a key has snapped in the lock, leave it be, digging at it pushes the piece deeper. I'll extract it, get you in and sort the cylinder so it doesn't repeat.
What it costs
No call-out fee anywhere in Bournemouth. I quote before I touch the door, the price doesn't move once I'm there, and you pay when you're back inside. If a lock genuinely has to be replaced I carry stock on the van, so a lockout never turns into a night behind an unsecured door.
