I'm Anthony from AD Locksmithing, a locksmith Washington homeowners and businesses can call direct. If you're locked out, a key has snapped or a lock has stopped working, Washington is in my core area - I aim to reach you in 20-30 minutes for most call-outs, and I'll give you an honest estimate when you call. If you need an emergency locksmith at any hour, I'm available around the clock, with no call-out fee and a direct line to me rather than a call centre.
No problem, give me a call on 07865 367 298. I'll have your lock open in no time!
I work the way mobile locksmiths do: I come to you, at any hour. If something has gone wrong with a door or lock, here is what I can help with.
If you're locked out, my aim is to get you back in without damaging the door or frame. Non-destructive entry is how I approach every lockout, day or night, and if the lock needs replacing once you're in, I can do that on the same visit.
A snapped key in a euro cylinder means the fragment needs removing or the cylinder replacing. A snapped key in a rim cylinder, the kind that works a night latch, means the door can't be opened from the outside. In either case, I can clear the fragment, get you back in and replace the cylinder where it's needed.
A break-in calls for more than patching the visible damage. I carry out burglary repairs, repairing or replacing door locks and fitting insurance-approved locks where needed. A free security check on the rest of the property is there if you want one.
I believe that the true measure of my service is reflected in the voices of my customers.
It's one thing for me to tell you about the dedication and expertise I bring to each task. Yet, hearing it directly from those who have experienced my services is entirely different. These testimonials highlight the quality of my work and my commitment to creating lasting relationships with every client I have the privilege of assisting.
Whatever the fault, you get a friendly service and a straight answer on what the lock or door needs before any work starts.
A lock change makes sense after moving into a property, after a break-in, or when a key has been lost and you're not sure who has a copy. I can carry out a complete lock installation on the same visit - mortice locks, cylinders and locks that meet current home insurance requirements. The price agreed before I start is the price you pay, even if the job turns out bigger than expected.
A uPVC door that won't close or latch properly can have a multipoint mechanism fault - the gearbox rather than the cylinder. Multipoint work is the exception to a standard lock replacement cost, and I'll be upfront about that on the phone before I come out.
Anti-snap euro cylinders are built to resist cylinder snapping, and I can fit them on front and back doors. A lock repair sometimes reveals the cylinder is worn past saving - that's a replacement rather than a repair, and I'll tell you that before I start, not after.
On uPVC windows, I repair and replace handles, locking mechanisms, hinges and restrictors. A handle that spins without engaging, a mechanism that has seized or a restrictor that has failed are all things I can sort. Where a mechanism is beyond repair, I'll fit a replacement rather than leave the window unsecured.
I give the same friendly service to landlords and business owners as I do to homeowners. No call-out charges apply regardless of property type.
I change locks between tenancies for landlords, so only the current tenants hold a key.
I cover shops, offices and industrial units for lockouts, lock repairs and lock changes. For a lockout, call me directly and I'll get to you as quickly as I can. For non-urgent work - a planned lock change or a repair that can wait - call ahead and I can arrange a time.
When you call, you reach me directly. There's no call centre - just a direct line to the locksmith doing the work. I can answer questions, give you a sense of what's involved and tell you honestly how soon I can get to you, all in the same call.
There are no call-out charges, wherever you are in the area. I'll give you a free, no-obligation quote before anything starts. The price agreed before I start is the price you pay, even if the job turns out bigger than expected. Out-of-hours visits cost more than daytime ones, and I'll tell you that upfront.
Non-destructive entry is how I approach every lockout, and it works in over 99% of cases, so your door and lock go undamaged. Where a lock has to be replaced rather than opened, I'll tell you that before I start rather than after.
I'm DBS checked and fully insured, so you know who you're letting into your home.
Washington covers a wide area split into distinct villages, and I cover all of them. Washington Village, Columbia, Concord, Sulgrave, Oxclose, Fatfield, Rickleton, Harraton, Barmston, Usworth, Albany, Glebe, Biddick, Springwell and Pattinson are all within my area.
I run a local locksmith business serving Tyne and Wear, and I aim to give a reliable service on every call. I also cover the neighbouring areas: Gateshead, Birtley, Chester-le-Street, Houghton-le-Spring and Sunderland. Wherever you are, it's worth a call to check I can reach you.
Whatever the job, the call is free and there's no obligation - get in touch and I'll talk you through it.
