Getting In Through The Letterbox
A Lockout That Happens a Lot in Romsey
Last week, I had to go to a house near Cupernham Lane in Romsey. The homeowner went outside to get a package, and the door clicked shut behind her, which was lucky. She could see her keys on the kitchen counter, but they were completely out of reach.
We've all felt that way before. You think about your choices: break a window or call a pro. She made a good choice and called Locksmith Romsey instead, which is good.
Getting There Quickly, Ready To Assist
I got there in twenty minutes flat. The homeowner was cold, irritated embarrassed, and had that half-smile that people get when they've had a bad day. I could tell right away that it would be an easy job for someone who knew how to get in without breaking anything. In this case, it meant using a special letterbox tool, which is a long, flexible tool made just for this kind of work.
How We Got In Through The Letterbox
I was able to get through the letterbox without scratching the door or lock at all, thanks to a little patience and a steady hand. It took less than five minutes for everything to happen.
When the latch popped open, the look of relief on her face said it all. No damage, no drama, and no need for costly replacements.
Why It's Important For Professionals To Get Access
People don't realise how common this kind of gaining access work is, especially around Romsey's family homes and newer estates where modern door locks are sensitive.
It's always better to call a professional locksmith than to try to fix your door or frame yourself and risk damaging them. We don't just use any old tools; they need to be used safely with the right knowledge, experience, and a little bit of skill.
Our Local Promise: Non-Destructive Entry
The best part of this job was how thankful the customer was that we didn't have to drill or break the lock. Using skill instead of force is something we at Locksmith Romsey are proud of.
There is usually a way to get back in without breaking anything if you know how to do it.
