Using subcontractors comes with a whole range of risks, including inconsistent workmanship, varied standards of service, and potential security concerns. 

Many subcontractors do not always follow the same high-level training, techniques, or customer service protocols which at Lock & Key we hold ourselves to. This can result in unnecessary delays and a disappointing customer experience.

There’s also the added concern of safety, especially when proper DBS background checks aren’t performed, increasing the risk of unvetted people gaining access to your property.

At Lock & Key Doncaster your safety and satisfaction are our number priorities. That’s why we only use locksmiths who are directly employed by us. Every member of our team is fully trained in-house, DBS-checked, and held to the highest industry standards, providing you with complete peace of mind.

Lost my front door key on hols so was dreading getting back and having to wait around for a locksmith. Called Lock and Key they were here within half an hour took less than that to open the door and replace the lock.

Came within an hour Sunday evening. Explained and showed me the damage that had caused the jam and broken key and gave me a fair quote for the repair. Replaced the lock and handle mechanism and thoroughly checked everything, even adjusted the door mountings as they were out. Brilliant job and smashing fella, wholeheartedly recommend.

Having found that the French doors would not lock on Sunday evening I phoned lock and key Barnsley. I gave a description of the problem and John gave me a quote for what he thought the problem would be but explained if it was something else he may have to adjust the quote. He said he could be with me in 30 minutes, it was actually more like 20 minutes. He checked the lock and confirmed it was the issue we had discussed. John completed the required work promptly and with minimum fuss. He left me with a receipt for the work, after demonstrating the new lock working. Very happy with this service and would recommend.

We put care into every job we do, and it shows - our locksmiths truly work hard, and our 5-star Google reviews just keep growing!

A Brief History of Auckley

The small parish of Auckley has a population of almost 5,000 and is located just 5 miles from the Doncaster borough’s administrative centre. Famous for its community-oriented atmosphere, this small town gained regional fame in the 1960’s when a new housing development was built to accommodate the families working at nearby RAF Finningley. 

The discovery of 7th-century Saxon jewellery shows Auckley’s rich past and continuous history presence in British historical records. Constructed in the Gothic Revival style, the St. Saviour’s Church is one of the many notable landmarks in this parish, along with tourist-attracting lores like the Grey Lady Apparition. 

Along with the Hayfield fishing lakes, this Doncaster town is also famous for the annual Auckley Show featuring disco dancing, gardening, and tug-of-war contests, attracting visitors from all over South Yorkshire.

Despite its suburban setting, Auckley is challenged with burglaries and vehicle crimes that make area residents and local businesses in much need of locksmithing services. The crime rate here is 109 per 1,000 people, showcasing how property crimes and home invasions have turned into a major headache for the locals. 

The police recorded 27 burglaries in this small village in the last 12 months alone. Moreover, the vehic;e crime rate here is 1.63 times higher than the national average. That’s why Auckley homeowners and business owners are investing in additional security measures and working closely with our team of expert locksmith at Lock & Key Doncaster to deter criminal activity

Our team of Auckley locksmiths enhance the security of local homes, for example by installing anti-snap, high-security door and window locks that make it difficult for burglars to break into homes. Our experts can thoroughly evaluate the security of your home, with zero obligation to proceed, and provide additional security upgrade suggestions for your property.
