Help! How do I Replace My Damaged Locks?
Do you need to repair or replace your locks for better security or moving into a new home? Our expert local locksmiths in Selby can be with you in under an hour to repair or install high-security locks.
Are Your Locks Causing You a Headache?
When you feel like your home is not as secure as it should be, resting at night becomes that little bit harder – and rightly so. Crime rates in Selby are a valid concern, so nobody wants to go to sleep or head off for a trip knowing their locks are not up to standard. If you have noticed any kind of issue with your locks, ignoring the issue is not advised.
Instead, give us a call and work with the experts we have at Lock & Key Selby. We can fix any issue with your locks, including common issues including the following:
Wear and Tear
Wear and tear remain common problems with locks, given that they are used thousands of times in a single year. As such, locks can begin to wear out, weaken, snap, or become out of line. Whatever the cause of your wear and tear, we can find a solution to repair your locks as soon as possible.
Lost or Stolen Keys
If you have lost your keys, then you are far from alone – hundreds of people in Selby lose their keys on an annual basis. We can replace your keys via re-keying your locks for a new set of keys, or we can duplicate your master keys for replacement sets.
Damaged Locks
Over time, your locks could become damaged. They could be damaged in a storm, attacked by vandals, or even simply damaged in an accident. Whatever the reason, we can fix the damage done or, if needed, replace the lock entirely.
Aged Locks
At Lock & Key, we can replace any locks you have fitted with modern alternatives that provide modern protections against lockpicking, lock snapping, lock bumping and drilling. All locks we fit are BS3621 compliant, ensuring your locks are up-to-date with insurance policy requirements.
Misplaced Keys
One of the most common problems with locks is simply not having the keys to open the door anymore. When your keys cannot be found, you risk having someone access and being unable to get access yourself. If you cannot find the keys in short order, call our expert team of Locksmiths and we will replace the locks and provide new keys – it’s better to be safe than sorry!
Jammed Locks
If your locks feel stiff or like they jam when you lock/unlock them, the reasons could be as simple as needing to be cleaned out. Or, they could be out of line with the lock grooves. Whatever the cause, we can stop that jamming problem.
Key Snapping
In some cases, we receive callout requests from Selby locals who have had their keys snap in the lock itself. While this sounds rare, it happens more often than you would assume – so if your keys have actually broken inside your lock, call Lock & Key for immediate support, ASAP!
Post Moving House
Have you just moved into a new building in the Selby area? Then our professional advice is to get your locks replaced ASAP. It is better to be safe than sorry; you never know how many spare key sets for your old locks are out there, and who might try to use them to gain entry.
Your Local Locksmith in Selby – Keeping You Safe Day and Night
How to Solve Your Lock Problems
There are many things that we can do to try and fix your locks – and we will exhaust every avenue we can go down. Our goal is to find a lock repair/replacement solution that reduces the risk of structural damage to a minimum. The solutions we will attempt on your locks include, but are not limited to:
Lock Maintenance
First off, we will try to see if we can clean out your locks – many problems can emerge with locks just due to the presence of dirt, debris and/or obstacles within the lock mechanism itself.
Having Locks Replaced
To start with, we will look to repair your locks. If your locks are in a situation where they cannot be fixed, though, we can replace the lock with a new alternative. We can replace the lock with a new, British Standards 3621-approved lock model that is robust and perfectly suited for your door type.
Repairing or Realigning Locks
Repairing your locks is often the best choice, and remains our priority as opposed to a replacement. If we can repair your locks through maintenance, realignment, or any other repair service, we will do so.
Upgrading to Smart Locks
Many homeowners in Selby now want to go down the route of changing to a keyless entry system for their homes. Being able to control your locks from miles away is a nice feeling, as is having full control whether you are lying in bed or in a meeting.
With smart locks, you get the next generation of lock mechanisms, which are proven to make a real difference to your ease of use. No longer do you need to worry about keys getting lost; you can manage your locks with smartphone apps or entry methods like keypad entry.
We are proud to say that all our expert locksmiths are both City & Guilds Accredited and NCFE-approved. This means when your local locksmith turns up on your doorstep, you can be totally confident in the service and quality of workmanship you will receive.

Changing a common door lock takes anywhere from 30-60 minutes.

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.
