“Locked out at 1am after a wedding in town. Rang the (01) number and a real Dublin man answered straight away — no menu, no call centre. Eighteen minutes later he was at the door of my apartment on Rathmines Road and had me inside in five without a single mark on the door. Charged exactly the €95 he quoted on the phone. Genuinely brilliant service. I will be saving the number for life.”
Weekend Locksmith Service — Dublin
Saturday and Sunday locksmith service — no weekend surcharge.
4.9/5 from 250+ verified Dublin reviews
If you are locked out anywhere in Dublin — at home, at the office, or in a car park — we are the closest PSA-licensed locksmith on call. Our 24-hour emergency line is a real Dublin 01 landline answered by a member of our team day or night. Not a premium-rate number, not a divert to a UK call centre, and not auctioned to a third-party sub-contractor.
What "emergency" means to us
An emergency call is anyone locked out, locked in, broken into, or with a snapped key in the lock. We dispatch a fully-stocked van the moment the phone hangs up — no waiting on quotes, no waiting until morning, no surcharge for late nights or weekends. Our average on-site arrival time across Dublin city and the Greater Dublin Area is twenty to thirty minutes; inside the M50 it is usually fifteen.
What we do on the job
- Open the door without damage — bypass tools and PSA-approved entry methods open over 95% of doors with no damage to the lock, frame or door itself.
- Cut a new key on-site if the original has been lost, broken or stolen.
- Re-key the cylinder when keys have been lost so old keys no longer work.
- Upgrade the lock if the existing one is below British Standard or showing signs of attack — we carry anti-snap TS007 3-star cylinders on the van.
- Issue a written invoice and 12-month guarantee on every job.
Fixed price up front
We quote a fixed price on the phone before we leave the depot. The minimum job price is €90 — that is the fee for opening a door with no further work. There is no separate "call-out fee" added on top, no late-night surcharge, no weekend surcharge, no premium for bank holidays.
Areas we cover
We cover every Dublin postcode (D1 through D24), every Dublin county town (Tallaght, Swords, Blanchardstown, Lucan, Clondalkin, Dundrum, Malahide, Howth) and the surrounding Kildare / Meath / Wicklow border. See the full coverage list.

Reviews
“Came home from work to a UPVC front door I couldn't get open — handle had gone completely floppy. Got a fixed price of €185 on the phone before he left and that's exactly what I paid. Fitted a new gearbox in under an hour and showed me what had gone wrong with the old one. Polite, tidy and made sure I had three working keys before he left. Top class.”
“Genuinely the fastest locksmith I've ever used in Dublin. Locked the keys inside the apartment in Beacon South Quarter, rang at 11pm, was at my door in twelve minutes. €95 fixed price, no call-out fee on top, no hidden anything. He even waited to make sure my new keys worked before driving off. I have his number saved as "the locksmith who actually shows up".”
“Came out on a Sunday morning for a burglary repair in Tyrrelstown. House had been hit Saturday night while we were away for a christening. Replaced the snapped cylinder with an anti-snap one, fitted a new mortice on the back door and gave us a written report for the insurance — all in under two hours. The insurance handler said it was the cleanest report she'd seen all month. Highly recommend.”
“Lost my car keys somewhere in the long-term car park at Dublin Airport coming back from a trip. Called the AA first — they wanted to tow it to the dealer, two days minimum, €400+. Rang Locksmiths.ie instead, the auto-locksmith van was at the car in twenty minutes, cut and programmed a new key on the spot, total €165 fixed price. Drove home that evening. Lifesavers.”
“My elderly mother locked herself out of her apartment near Spencer Dock late on a Saturday night. She's 84 and I was an hour away. The lad on the phone reassured her, was there in fifteen minutes, opened the door without damage, made sure she had a cup of tea before he left. Charged me the standard €95. The kind of service you don't expect any more in Dublin.”
