I am locked out of my house right now, how fast can a locksmith come?

Most locksmiths on PronearMe respond to emergency lockouts within 30-60 minutes depending on your location. Contact us on WhatsApp with your location and we will dispatch the nearest available locksmith.

How much does a locksmith charge in Lagos?

Cost depends on whether it is a simple lockout, a lock replacement, or installing a new security or smart lock. Emergency callouts outside normal hours may cost more. Contact us with your issue for an accurate price before the locksmith arrives.

Can a locksmith open my door without damaging it?

In most cases, yes. Experienced locksmiths use non-destructive entry techniques first. If the lock is old or already broken, replacement may be recommended instead of forcing entry.

Do you install smart locks or keypad locks?

Yes. Our locksmiths install smart locks, keypad locks, and biometric locks in addition to standard mechanical locks and deadbolts.

Can you make a replacement key if I lost mine?

Yes. If your lock supports key duplication or a spare cylinder is available, we can cut a replacement key. If the lock cannot be safely duplicated, the locksmith will recommend a full lock replacement.
