Why Choose Us?

Don't reach for the superglue

When a key breaks, the first instinct for many homeowners in Sunderland is to try a DIY fix. We’ve seen people try everything from tweezers and pliers to—believe it or not—superglue. The problem is that these methods usually end up pushing the broken fragment even deeper into the barrel, or worse, ruining the lock mechanism entirely. Our advice? Just leave it as it is. We use specialised extraction hooks and spirals designed to grip the fragment and slide it out cleanly. By calling us first, you often save yourself the cost of a brand-new lock.

Saving your locks with non-destructive entry

Most of the time, a key snaps because the lock itself is getting a bit tired or the uPVC door has dropped out of alignment. If the handle has been feeling stiff lately, that's usually the warning sign. Our goal is always non-destructive entry. We want to get that fragment out while keeping your original lock perfectly intact. Once the bit of key is out, we can check the health of your multi-point locking system or euro cylinder to make sure it doesn't happen again. We can even cut you a fresh set of keys right there on-site in our van, so you aren't left without a way to lock up.
