Sometimes, yes (depending on the diary). Call 07700176109 with photos and your postcode and I’ll tell you the earliest realistic slot.
5. What metals can you weld for door locks?
Most commonly mild/structural steel. Stainless and aluminium may be possible depending on the job and conditions—send a photo and I’ll advise.
6. Do I need to provide power?
Power on-site helps, but it’s not always required. If needed, I can bring a generator—just tell me what’s available.
7. Can you weld outdoors?
Yes, as long as conditions are safe. Heavy rain or strong wind can affect quality and safety—if weather is bad we’ll rearrange.
8. Can you quote from photos?
Photos are the quickest way to get a guide price. Final cost can depend on what the metal is like once I’m on-site (rust/thickness/access).
9. Do you supply plates and brackets?
Yes—small plates, flat bar and brackets can often be supplied as part of the repair. Larger steel may need ordering in advance.
10. Can you weld door locks for commercial security?
Yes, I handle commercial and industrial door lock welding including armoured doors and security gates.
11. How do I prepare for your visit?
Clear the area around the lock or gate, move flammables, and ensure there’s space to park nearby. If access is tight, please advise in advance.

Small repairs can be under an hour. Gate or lock reinforcement often takes 2–4 hours. Larger site jobs can be half day or full day.

Sparks can mark surfaces. I protect the area, but I always recommend moving vehicles and valuables where possible before welding starts.

Basic priming/paint can be added as an optional extra. Many customers prefer to paint later once everything is fully cooled and cleaned.

Bank transfer is preferred. Payment is normally due once the job is completed and you’re happy with the work.
