Why Accreditations are so Important?

At Lock & Key all our locksmiths are accredited by the City & Guilds, the highest standard in locksmithing in the United Kingdom and furthermore, NCFE-certified! Passionate about what we do, we are constantly seeking to improve our skills through professional training courses, keeping everyone updated with the latest techniques and practices in the industry. This means that when we arrive at your location, you can fully trust in the quality of the service you’ll receive. 

We Never Use Sub-Contractors

Using subcontractors can bring a variety of unwanted risks, such as inconsistent service, poor workmanship, and even safety and security issues. Subcontracted workers often do not follow the same high levels of training, techniques, or service standards that we pride ourselves on, which can lead to disappointing results or unnecessary delays. 

Without strict DBS background checks, there’s also the potential danger to your own personal safety and for businesses, that of sensitive customer information falling into the wrong hands. 

At Lock & Key Sheffield, you can feel confident knowing that every locksmith we send is a trusted member of our own team — we never rely on subcontractors.

Came within an hour Sunday evening. Explained and showed me the damage that had caused the jam and broken key and gave me a fair quote for the repair. Replaced the lock and handle mechanism and thoroughly checked everything, even adjusted the door mountings as they were out. Brilliant job and smashing fella, wholeheartedly recommend.

Having found that the French doors would not lock on Sunday evening I phoned lock and key Barnsley. I gave a description of the problem and John gave me a quote for what he thought the problem would be but explained if it was something else he may have to adjust the quote. He said he could be with me in 30 minutes, it was actually more like 20 minutes. He checked the lock and confirmed it was the issue we had discussed. John completed the required work promptly and with minimum fuss. He left me with a receipt for the work, after demonstrating the new lock working. Very happy with this service and would recommend.

Every job we complete is carried out with care, precision, and pride and it shows in our growing 5-star reputation on Google. Experience the Lock & Key Sheffield difference for yourself.
