Locked out at 2 a.m. in a Dubai tower, with no one to call? A 24 hour locksmith is the service you need at that hour. Dubai summers and late shifts mean lockouts do not wait for office hours. Message us on WhatsApp at any time of day or night. You get steps and a clear estimate from us before the job begins.
Message us on WhatsApp or call 056 828 4120. Both lines stay open 24/7, through the night and over public holidays.
A 24 hour locksmith is a lock service you can reach at any hour, every day of the year. The point is availability, not a different kind of lock work. The same jobs are done at 3 p.m. and at 3 a.m. Only the hour of the call changes.
At DubaiRepairs.ae, WhatsApp and phone are open 24/7. Send a photo of the door or lock and tell us where you are. Your options are explained before any work begins. If your problem is the situation itself, such as a break-in or lost keys, read about urgent lockout and lock-damage situations.
A mobile locksmith works at your location. So the first step is to describe the door, the lock and where you are.
Some problems cannot wait until morning. These are the calls that come in after dark.
Not sure which one fits? Send a photo and we will say.
Four short steps take you from a locked door to a decision. The clearer your description, the smoother it goes.
Based on market pricing, costs can vary depending on vehicle or lock type, security technology, replacement requirements, service complexity, and parts required. For a home call, the lock brand and the door condition matter most. Some providers also list the time of day as a factor. A late-night call can be priced differently from a daytime call.
| Job | Typical market range | What changes the price |
|---|---|---|
| Opening a locked home door | About AED 150 to 650 | Lock type, door condition |
| Minor lock repair | About AED 150 to 300 | Part needed, lock brand |
| Cylinder replacement | About AED 100 to 450 | Cylinder grade, door type |
| High-security cylinder | About AED 350 to 950 | Security rating, brand |
| Full lock set | About AED 250 to 1,000 or more | Set type, finish, parts |
These are published market figures, not a DubaiRepairs quote. We give you a clear estimate before any work starts.
Dubai life runs late. Residents come home after long shifts, flights and dinners. A door that shut behind you cannot be opened from the corridor. In a tower, the lift lobby, the parking and the flat sit on different floors. A lost key is not a short walk away.
Heat adds to it. A key left in a hot car park can crack its casing. In summer, many people rush between air-conditioned spaces and forget things. In villas, a back door or side gate left unlocked can mean the main door is the only way in.
Plan ahead with a few simple habits:
These communities show where after-hours lock problems come up most often.

Opening a locked home door has a published market range of about AED 150 to 650. Repairs and new locks can add to that, depending on the lock and parts. Some providers price late-night calls differently. You see a clear estimate before the job begins.
Opening time varies with the lock, the door and what went wrong. Until the lock is known, no fixed time can be named. Share a photo on WhatsApp and we explain your options.
The 24-hour label is about when you can reach us, at any hour. The emergency label is about the situation, such as a break-in or lost keys. Our emergency locksmith page covers those situations.
Share where you are, a photo of the door and lock, and a short account of the cause. Add a photo of any key you still hold. Then your options can be explained first.
Many standard door locks can be opened without drilling, but it depends on the lock. High-security and damaged locks can be harder to open. Send a photo and we will explain what is possible for your lock.
Do not force it or try to turn it with pliers. A snapped key needs careful extraction. Message us a photo of the lock and the broken piece, and see our page on broken key extraction.
Yes. If keys are lost or stolen, a new lock makes the old key useless. Tell us the lock type on WhatsApp and a clear estimate follows before the job begins.
Stay in a safe, well-lit place and keep your phone charged. Check other doors and windows only if it is safe to do so. Do not force the lock, because damage makes the repair harder.
Write to us on WhatsApp whatever the hour and get a clear estimate before the job begins. Message us on WhatsApp, call 056 828 4120, or see all locksmith services.
