A locksmith who knows Lerwick
Lerwick is the main town of Shetland, a working harbour on the east coast of the Mainland that faces the island of Bressay across the sound. Flagstoned Commercial Street and its narrow stone lanes follow the old waterfront, and each January the streets fill with torches for the Up Helly Aa fire festival. Our engineers cover Lerwick and the whole ZE postcode area, including Scalloway, Brae, Sandwick, Sumburgh and Baltasound on Unst.
The line is answered 24 hours a day, with no callout fee if you go ahead at any hour. Shetland is a long chain of islands linked by ferries, so arrival times vary; give us your postcode and we will tell you how long on the call. Need a Lerwick locksmith? Call now.
Shetland has few trees to slow the wind, so winter gales and salt spray hit doors and windows head on, wearing hinges, handles and cylinders and swelling timber frames.
