Upgrading Your High Security Door Locks
When you want to make sure your home feels genuinely secure, you need an expert in high-security locks. At Lock & Key Selby, we have a team of highly professional locksmiths who know locks like the back of their hands!
Are High-Security Locks Worthwhile?
The cost of having high-security locks installed by the Lock & Key Selby team pales in comparison to the cost of recovering after a break-in. Knowing that your locks are durable enough to prevent a break-in means that you can avoid the financial and emotional turmoil that comes from having to replace lost assets due to a break-in taking place. Not only that, but the lock we install makes sure that you meet insurance policy regulations.
Locks installed by the Lock & Key Selby team meet all British Standards requirements. That means that you know your locks are now resistant to all typical break-in methods, from lock snapping to drilling through your locks. With the locks fitted by us, you now know that you have locks in place that will vastly reduce the risk of a break-in being successful – that is a priceless feeling.

What Makes a Door Lock High-Security?
High-security locks play a huge role in making sure that you feel more comfortable about your home or business security. They not only provide you with all-around protection from usually applied break-in methods, but they also provide longevity thanks to the high-quality nature of the parts used in the high-security locks we fit for you. Not only that, but your locks are now compliant with UK insurance policy provider requirements.
Anti-Snap Protection
The locks we install for you provide anti-snap protection. Given its prevalence as a break-in method, this takes away one of the most commonly used techniques in the UK.
Drill and Pick Resistance
Locks that can be picked are an easy game for break-in artists looking to enter your home. With high-security locks fitted by us, you have resistance to such basic methods.
Key Duplication Security
Thanks to the patented nature of the lock pathways in high-security locks, it is nearly impossible for someone to clone your keys without your permission.
Bump-Proof Technology
Like lock snapping, lock bumping is exceedingly easy to carry out, making it a dangerous method for forced entry into your home. High-security locks remain resistant to lock bumping.
Lasting Confidence
High-security locks provide you with protection from today’s methods, but also provide resistance against new-fangled innovations, creating long-term security.
Whatever the time, day or night, if you have a problem with your locks, we can help. We operate a 24/7 service across the Selby and surrounding area, providing locksmithing solutions to both residential and commercial customers.
Protect Your Property’s Security with Anti-Snap Locks
Despite the fact that lock snapping is one of the most commonly used break-in skills in Selby, it is also among the easiest to carry out. With high-security locks, you have protections that make using this skill on your doors impossible. The locks we install for you ensure that one of the most regularly used break-in skills does not work, reducing the risk of successful break-ins by some margin.
Does Your Home or Business in Selby Require High-Security Locks
Break-ins remain a common problem in the UK today, and especially so here in Selby. Part of the reason is the fact that many properties have not upgraded their lock systems. Thus, they leave it easy for a criminal to break in. By investing in high-security locks, you make it far less likely that someone targeting your property is going to be successful in their attempts.
Break-ins are a hugely damaging experience to go through, and they can really shake confidence. With high-security locks, you make sure that criminals need to use increasingly advanced – and likely visible – methods of entry to get into your property. They are far more likely to give up and instead move on to a different target. Also, insurance policy providers expect that homes and businesses in Selby have high-security locks fitted; without them, your policy may be invalidated.
How to Recognise Anti-Snap Locks?
The simplest way to determine if you have locks which meet British Standard regulations is to check your doors for the British Standards Kitemark symbol. This looks like a heart with a squiggle in it, for clarity. Doors that have this Kitemark should be compliant with British Standards. Are you unsure? Call us for a review!

Why Should I Hire Lock & Key Selby to High-Security Locks?
In our decades within the trade, we have sadly seen many DIY-fitted lock systems that lack the right touch and attention to detail. Missing even one step in the installation process can leave your locks far less likely to succeed in terms of their intended purpose.
With Lock & Key Selby staff fitting your locks, though, this is not a problem. All our staff are DBS-checked, City & Guilds-accredited, NCFE-approved professionals who have years of proven success in the trade. When we fit your high-security locks, they are fitted ‘by the book’ with no steps cut out or oversights, ensuring long-lasting protection. All of our works include:
Expert Security Analysis
First off, we make sure that the process is carried out by professionals who double-check that the work has been done to satisfaction. That attention to detail guarantees:
Professional Installation
We make sure that every step is followed and everything is done by the letter of the instructions for the high-security locks fitted for you; thus, installation is 100% accurate.
The Most Reliable Locks
We also make sure that the locks fitted for you are the most up-to-date models. This means that your locks are not going to become compromised soon because they are outdated upon installation.
Emergency Assistance
If your locks break in the middle of the night, you might worry about waiting until morning for support. Our staff operate 24/7, so we can help with Selby lock installation at any time.
Long-Lasting Protection
Nothing beats being able to put your head down at night knowing that your doors are going to resist just about any attempted break-in. There is no monetary value that can match that kind of feeling and peace of mind!

Changing a common door lock takes anywhere from 30-60 minutes. But this timeline can be different based on your door type (garage, uPVC, conservatory, etc.), lock type (Yale or Euro or something else), and how many locks we’re required to repair/replace. Our locksmith can give you a more accurate time estimate once they arrive at your location.
Can the locksmith provide a quote beforehand?
Yes, we’ll be happy to give you a quote before taking on this job. We’ll hop on a phone call in which we’ll ask you relevant questions to better understand what’s bugging you. This way, our quote will be realistic and manageable.
How much Is a locksmith call out charge?
We don’t charge a call-out fee. You only have to pay for the actual work upon completion and when you are 100% satisfied.
