A locksmith who knows York

York is a walled city of Georgian townhouses around Bootham and Micklegate, Victorian terraces in Holgate, Heworth and Fishergate, and suburbs such as Acomb and Haxby further out. Our engineers cover York and the whole YO postcode area, from Selby, Thirsk and Malton to Pocklington, Pickering, Easingwold and Boroughbridge, and across to the coast at Scarborough, Whitby, Filey and Bridlington.

Calls are answered 24 hours a day, and there is no callout fee if you go ahead whatever the hour. Arrival is typically 15 to 20 minutes, with 30 minutes the longest. Every engineer is fully insured and fits BS3621 locks and anti-snap cylinders, carries common uPVC parts and backs parts fitted with a 12-month guarantee. If you need a York locksmith at any hour, call and we will arrange the rest.

Streets close to the Ouse and the Foss have flooded in wet winters, and lingering damp swells timber doors and corrodes old locks and cylinders.

Locksmith in York: common questions

What does a locksmith in York cost?

Lockouts start from £39, lock changes from £88 and uPVC gearbox replacements from £89, plus VAT where applicable. You get a free quote on the phone, and the engineer confirms the price before starting.

What do you work on?

Front and back doors on homes and small businesses: lockouts, lock changes, lock repairs, uPVC and composite doors, window locks and repairs after a break-in. We do not work on cars or safes.

Can you fit insurance-approved locks?

Yes. BS3621 mortice deadlocks for timber doors and anti-snap euro cylinders for uPVC and composite doors. Tell us what your policy asks for and the engineer brings the right lock.

Do nights and weekends cost more?

No. The price is the same at 3am on a Sunday as it is at midday on a Tuesday, bank holidays included.

How does pricing work?

Tell us the door, the lock and what has happened, and we give you a free quote on the phone. When the engineer arrives, they check the lock and confirm the final price with you before starting any work. Nothing is done without your agreement. A £49 assessment fee applies only if you cancel after the engineer has arrived.

How quickly can someone get to me?

An engineer is typically with you in 15 to 20 minutes, and within 30 minutes at most. We give you a time on the phone based on where the nearest engineer is right now.

Can you work on an older door in a listed building inside the city walls?

Yes. Our engineers can repair, re-key or fit a suitable lock to older timber doors, and the engineer will explain what is possible and confirm the price first. Where a change would alter how a listed door looks, it is worth checking with the council before we go ahead.

Do you cover Scarborough, Whitby and Bridlington or only York?

Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole YO postcode area, from York and Selby to Malton, Pickering, Scarborough, Whitby, Filey and Bridlington.
