Without the proper training or recognised industry certifications, there is no guarantee the locksmith performing the work has the skills or knowledge to complete the job safely and effectively!

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. Given plenty of spare keys the locksmith was efficient and friendly and didn't cost the earth. Highly recommended.

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 Tickhill

The market town of Tickhill has a population of 5,100 individuals, all living in an area of 10.73 square miles. As a Doncaster neighbourhood, Tickhill is 8 miles south of Doncaster and is situated on the conjunction of the A60 and A631. 

Tickhill was the most important town in South Yorkshire after Doncaster in the medieval days. With origins dating back to the 11th century, Tickhill boasts notable landmarks such as the impressive Tickhill Castle, which features a well-preserved motte and bailey structure. St. Mary’s Church is another 12th-century highlight and showcases stunning medieval architecture. 

The town is also home to the Mill Dam, which is a scenic spot popular for fishing and birdwatching. With the River Torne flowing nearby, Tickhill is home to St. Leonard’s Hospital, which was constructed in the 15th century as a monastery and was later turned into a hospice. 

The town also organises several festivals throughout the year, such as the annual Tickhill Gala. This standout occasion features live music, stalls, and parades, along with cosy pubs and delightful eateries for local residents to enjoy.

Despite its tranquil charm, Tickhill is not immune to crime. Even though it’s regarded as one of the top 20 safest small towns in South Yorkshire (crime rate: 53/1,000 persons), the crime risk here has increased dramatically after a very peaceful period in October 2021. The police saw 16 burglaries and 44 vehicle crimes happening here in a 12-month period. That’s why locals rely on quality locksmithing services from Lock & Key Doncaster to deter criminal activities in their town. Our team of local locksmiths offer them a variety of services for their total peace of mind.

Our locksmiths provide emergency locksmithing services to people whose keys have snapped in their locks or who have jammed or damaged locks. Our emergency services are available 24/7 throughout Doncaster and the wider South Yorkshire areas.

Additionally, at Lock & Key we not only offer lock repairs and replacements for outdated or damaged locks, but we can advise on through our free home security survey of any additional upgrades which may be necessary.
