Getting In Through the Letterbox

Getting In Through the Letterbox


A Windy Afternoon in Warsash

Not every lockout happens at night; some happen in the middle of the day. A woman who lives just off Newtown Road in Warsash called me a few days ago. She had gone outside to feed her dog in the back garden, and the wind slammed the kitchen door shut behind her. As usual, her keys were neatly hanging from the lock's inside.
She tried the handle a few times and then called me when it didn't move. I was lucky that I was already finishing another job near Locks Heath, so I was at her door in less than twenty minutes.

Fast thinking and the right tools

I took a quick look at the setup when I got there. The door was a modern composite type, which means it was a solid unit that was safe but could be difficult to open if you didn't know how. I could tell right away that the best way to get in was through the letterbox.
I was able to pop the latch cleanly without drilling or damaging it by using a few gentle movements and the right specialist tool. It only took five minutes to do the whole thing. The customer was amazed, and more importantly, they were back inside before the rain started.

Why It's Important to Get in Safely

A lot of people don't know that pushing on a UPVC or composite door can break the gearbox or frame, which can be very costly. That's why it's always best to hire a professional locksmith who knows how to get into a building without breaking anything.
I constantly try to use skill, not force, at Locksmith Warsash. If you get in cleanly, you won't have to pay anything extra, your lock won't be broken, and it will still be as good as new when you get back inside.
