Locked Out in Grantham? My Quick Response to a Scammer’s Price Jump
2025-09-17Earlier this week in Grantham I was called out to a distressed homeowner who had been locked out for three hours while a national locksmith waited to arrive, then drilled the lock and tried to raise the price from the quoted £59 to £314 before fleeing and leaving the front door wide open; I promptly travelled to the Grantham address, replaced the damaged hardware with a high‑security BS‑approved dead‑bolt, tested the new lock for smooth operation and secured the property—all with transparent pricing, no hidden fees and the peace of mind that only a trusted local Grantham locksmith can provide.
