Locksmith Invoicing Tips

  • 1State your call-out fee clearly and whether it includes the first 30 minutes of labour
  • 2Note 'British Standard (BS3621)' on locks you fit — it's what insurers require and reassures the customer
  • 3Charge an out-of-hours premium and label it as such so there's no confusion
  • 4Take card on site — emergency customers often don't have cash, and it speeds up payment
  • 5Note the lock brand and model fitted; useful for the customer's insurance and future keys

Frequently Asked Questions

How do locksmiths charge in the UK?

Typically a call-out fee of £50–£90 plus labour and hardware, with an out-of-hours premium for emergencies. Lockouts are often a fixed price; lock changes are call-out plus the cost of the cylinder or lock.

Should I mention British Standard locks on the invoice?

Yes — noting that a fitted lock meets BS3621 helps the customer satisfy their home-insurance requirements and demonstrates you've done the job to standard.

Do locksmiths charge more out of hours?

Most do. Emergency and night call-outs carry a premium — state it clearly as a separate line on the invoice so the customer understands the higher charge.
