Getting locked out is stressful, especially late at night. As a 24/7 emergency locksmith serving Kilburn, Acton, Wembley, and nearby areas, we’ve seen how common this problem is. Here are 5 simple tips to avoid a lockout – and what to do if it happens.
---
1. Always Have a Spare Key
Keep a spare key with a trusted neighbour or family member. This can save you time and money when you’re locked out.
---
2. Check Your Keys Before Leaving
It sounds simple, but 50% of lockouts happen because keys are forgotten inside. Make it a habit to tap your pocket or bag before shutting the door.
---
3. Install a Key Safe
A small, secure key safe outside your home can be a lifesaver. We install professional key safes in Kilburn and West London.
---
4. Upgrade to Smart Locks
Smart locks allow you to open your door with a code or app. We supply and fit reliable smart locks across Acton and Wembley.

5. Call a Trusted Emergency Locksmith
