Why Trust Lock & Key Emergency Locksmiths in Doncaster?

National companies often use contractors to carry out their work. This means they send out locksmiths who aren’t trained and directly employed by them. As a result, many of our customers want to know, “Where can I find a professional, friendly and trustworthy emergency locksmith near me?”

At Lock & Key, we offer a 24 hour Sheffield locksmith service, with the best locksmith team in the area. Our locksmiths are:

Whatever the time, day or night, if you’re locked out, we can help. We operate 24/7 across Sheffield and the surrounding areas, providing our services to both domestic and commercial customers who have locked themselves out.

Contact friends or family as they may have a spare key

Review your day

Consider where you have been during the day; you might have left your keys in a café, a shop, at a friend’s house, or even at your place of work. Review where you have been today, and then make some calls to the locations visited. Who knows? You might even have left your keys next to your locker in the gym!

Avoid trying to make any repairs yourself as this could cause more damage

Wait for the experts

We understand that you want to get this situation over with and quickly, but taking on a do-it-yourself attitude is likely to make your lock situation worse. Professional locksmiths are in high demand for a reason; there is no ‘easy’ way to fix your locks or get yourself back inside. While we appreciate the desire, leave repairs to us!

Ask your neighbours if they have a spare key

Wait in a safe location

With an expert local locksmith on the way, you will not have long to wait until we can get you safely back inside your property. However, waiting around can feel like an eternity, so we recommend you find a safe place to wait: your car, maybe your shed/garage, with a neighbour, or in a nearby place where you can see us coming.

Why Place Your Trust in a Local Company

Unfortunately, we’ve seen first-hand customers who have contacted a national locksmith company that promised fast callouts from locksmiths in the area; only to be left waiting for hours out in the cold! This is because most national companies use sub-contractors and as such they priorities their own workload first, which means more often than not you get pushed down the queue! More importantly, many national companies do not vet their locksmiths to the extent we do, so you can never be quite sure who is turning up!

Instead, we strongly recommend using a truly local company that is based in Rotherham – like us! Due to the fact we’re based in the area, we can minimise travel time and get to you in the quickest possible time, usually within 60 minutes. Additionally, we are focussed on ensuring our customer care is of the highest standard, we can’t afford to let customers down, our reputation depends on you!

How to Avoid Being Locked Out of Your Home in Sheffield

Of course, we never truly know when our locks are going to break or we are going to come home to a break-in attempt. If you want to avoid getting locked out in the future, though, we recommend that you consider the following:

Police approved key safes

Invest in and Install One or More Accredited Police-Approved Key Safes

First off, you should install a key safe that is kept in a safe place outside your home, i.e., your garage or porch. Only invest your money into police-approved key safes, though; many other models lack the same protection quality and make it easier for someone to force open the lock. Police-approved safes need angle grinders to open!

Regularly service existing locks

Regularly Service Existing locks Around Your Home and Business

Annually (or at least twice each year, if you can remember), you should thoroughly clean out your locks using a cleaning lubricant. Keeping the parts of your locks in working order is very important. We can clean out your locks for you, but you should use PTFE lubricant for multi-point locks and graphite powder lubricant for Euro locks.

Lost my front door key on hols so was dreading getting back and having to wait around for a locksmith. Called Lock and Key they were here within half an hour took less than that to open the door and replace the lock. Given plenty of spare keys the locksmith was efficient and friendly and didn't cost the earth. Highly recommended.

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.
