A genuinely local locksmith, not a call centre
Emergency Locksmith Peckham is the local call-out brand of Lucky Locks, run by Phillip Stevens from Glengall Rd in SE15. When you call, you're speaking to the locksmith who'll actually be on your doorstep - not a national dispatch line passing your job to a stranger.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can you get to me in Peckham or Southwark?
We aim to be moving as soon as you call. For a genuine lockout emergency, we're typically on site within 30-60 minutes depending on where you are and the traffic on the day.
What does a locksmith call-out cost in South London?
It depends on the job, the time of day and how complex the access is. We'll always talk you through pricing on the phone before anything starts, so there are no surprises.
Will you damage my door to get me back in?
Not if we can help it. Non-destructive entry is our first approach for almost every residential lockout, so your existing door and lock usually stay intact.
Which areas do you actually cover?
Peckham, Nunhead, Southwark, Camberwell, Bermondsey, Elephant & Castle, Walworth, Denmark Hill, Surrey Quays, Rotherhithe and the wider SE postcodes - see our areas page for the full list, and just call if you're unsure.
Should I change the locks when I move into a new place?
Generally yes. You've no way of knowing who else might still hold a key from a previous tenant, contractor or family member, so fresh locks are the safest starting point.
What lock types can you work on?
Deadbolts, mortice locks, euro and rim cylinders, multipoint systems, window locks and smart locks - if it's a residential lock, we can very likely help.
Do you handle emergencies outside normal hours?
Yes, that's a large part of what we do. Lockouts, break-in damage and jammed locks don't wait for office hours, and neither do we.
Can you cut spare keys while I wait?
Yes, spare key cutting for residential locks is usually done on the spot, so you can have copies ready for family or trusted neighbours the same visit.
