This is one of the services that we offer at CJ locksmiths, the opening of furniture locks where the keys have been misplaced. Its surprising how many calls we get for this service so today i thought we could shed some light on how much it costs, as most people assume that calling a locksmith is going to be exspensive.
Well it is if you don't use locally based companys, as most if not all out of town locksmiths are going to want a minimum payment simply because they are not based locally and have to include travel time.
By using a locally based locksmiths such as us, the answer would probably surprise you . its not as much as you would think. Based in Chepstow we routinely only charge a nominal charge of £35.00 within the Chepstow area and £45.00 for the Caldicot areas.
So next time you lose a key don't be put off calling us at CJ Locksmiths as a lot of the work we do is routine non emergency work and if you pre-book us for the following day or later in the week we only charge a hourly rate no call out costs or minimum charges.
