Locksmith Prices in Poole & Dorset
Andy, your local Dorset locksmith
What I charge and what changes the price. You hear the full price before I start, and it doesn't move once we've agreed it.
What a job costs
- Labour
- from £70
- The exact figure depends on the door and the lock. You hear it before I start.
- Locks and parts
- priced before fitting
- I show you which lock or part the door needs and what it costs before I fit anything.
- Call-out fee
- none
- No call-out fee when the job goes ahead.
- VAT
- none to add
- NOPAS is not VAT registered, so the price I quote is the price you pay.
What changes the price
- Which lock or part the door needs. An anti-snap cylinder for a uPVC door and a British Standard mortice lock for a wooden door are different parts at different prices.
- Whether the door opens without damage. Most do. If a lock has to be drilled it needs replacing, and I explain why before I do it.
- What has failed. A worn cylinder is a quick swap. A uPVC mechanism that has seized takes longer to open and repair.
- What I find at the door. If the job is different from what was described on the phone, I give you the new price before doing anything.

Locksmith prices: your questions
How much does a locksmith cost in Poole and Bournemouth?+
My labour starts from £70. Locks and parts are extra and depend on what your door needs. I give you the full price before I start, and it doesn't change once we've agreed it.
Do you add VAT?+
No. NOPAS is not VAT registered, so there is no VAT to add to the price I quote.
Do you charge a call-out fee?+
No call-out fee when the job goes ahead. I'll tell you the price before I touch anything, and you pay me when the work's done.
Can you give me a price over the phone?+
Usually, yes. Tell me what's happened and what kind of door and lock you have, and I'll give you a price before I set off. If the job turns out to be different when I arrive, you get the new price before I do anything.
When do I pay?+
When the work is done. I take cards.
Need me now?
