Locksmiths in Glasgow: Renters vs homeowners

If you’re a homeowner:

You’re responsible for lock changes, upgrades or repairs. If you're claiming through insurance (e.g. after a break-in), keep receipts and get a detailed invoice from your locksmith. Some policies also cover emergency locksmith costs.

If you rent:

Check with your landlord or letting agent before calling a locksmith. They’re usually responsible for repairs to locks, and they may already have a preferred locksmith. If it’s an emergency (like being locked out), they should authorise the visit or reimburse you if you’ve paid upfront.
