Frequently asked questions
How much does a locksmith cost in York?
At Lock & Key York, our prices are low and rates are reasonable for our valued customers. The cost of hiring a local locksmith will depend on the problem that you’re facing and the solutions available to us. We won’t charge you over the odds like many bigwigs in the industry do. You’ll get a free quotation over the phone with zero obligations. This way, you’ll know what to expect when our locksmith knocks at your door.
Do you have a locksmith near me in York?
Yes, all our locksmiths are 100% local to your area in York and employed directly by us! That is why our experts can arrive at your location ASAP whenever you need emergency services.
How quickly can a locksmith arrive at my location?
The typical response time will be 30 to 60 minutes in case of emergencies. That’s because our locksmiths are all York locals who can easily be at your doorsteps at any given time.
Are your locksmiths certified and insured?
Yes, our locksmiths are insured, certified, accredited, qualified, and highly experienced. They are all fully vetted, background-checked, and okayed by the DBS. So, you can trust us to secure your property.
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes! Here at Lock & Key York, it’s our number one priority to ensure our customers’ satisfaction. Which is why we only use high-quality locks and equipment with a guarantee. Our guarantees are applicable within 12 months from your visit. And in the rare event that our locks and workmanship will go wrong, trust that we’ll return to your property ASAP and replace it. All completely free of charge!
What should I do while waiting for the locksmith to arrive?
We know that waiting for a locksmith to arrive at your location can be a bit exhausting. But please avoid trying to fix the door lock by yourself. Instead, you should wait patiently for the professional to arrive at your location, and stay accessible via phone. Once the locksmith arrives, they’ll take care of everything.
How long will it take for the locksmith to gain entry?
It depends on what sort of locks you have on your property. Standard Yale, Euro Cylinder, rim-cylinder locks, and other lock types will take a few minutes, and you’ll gain access to your property. Complex locking mechanisms, however, are harder to break, and may take more time.
How much time does a locksmith take to change a lock?
Our locksmiths usually take 30 minutes to replace your door locks and then make the necessary adjustments. However, this timeline can vary based on various factors, such as the type of door/lock you have (is it uPVC, garage, patio, or conservatory?) as well as how many locks you want us to replace. It’s better if you ask this question to our locksmith once they arrive at your location. They can give you a better answer.
What kind of locksmith services do you offer?
We offer a wide range of locksmithing services, such as burglary repairs, uPVC door and lock repairs, lock and key replacements, free home security checks, and much more.
Do you provide services after hours or during weekends?
Yes, we provide our essential emergency services beyond normal work hours, and even during weekends. We realise that emergencies rarely arrive announced. That is why our local locksmiths in York can help you get back inside and feel secure ASAP.
Can the locksmith provide a quote beforehand?
Yes, we can provide you with a quote even before taking on the job. This way, you’ll know what you’re paying us for! We will ask relevant questions and assess the situation by using photos. It will help us realise how much it’s fair to charge.
How much Is a locksmith call out charge?
We don’t have a call-out fee here at Lock & Key York. We only bill you for a service that we provide based on your unique situation. We value honesty & transparency. Also, you don’t pay us a hidden fee or something.
How can I pay for the work carried out?
Payments can be easily made in cash or via all major debit and credit cards.
How much does it cost to change my locks and keys?
The cost of making lock and key replacements can vary based on the type, number, and the nature of locks/keys that you want us to change. However, please refer to our general price guide to get a rough idea. But it’s better to get in touch with our locksmiths to get a more accurate quote.
