Emergency Assistance for Lock Outs
While every situation is completely unique, we believe that being locked out of your property certainly constitutes an emergency, which is exactly why we treat it as such. In an emergency situation, you don’t want to be left alone waiting for hours for help to arrive.
Instead, you want (and need) the help of a trained professional as soon as possible. Which is exactly what you get when you choose Rotherham Lock & Key.
Why Place Your Trust in a Local Company
Unfortunately, we’ve seen first-hand customers who have contacted a national locksmith company that promised fast callouts from locksmiths in the area; only to be left waiting for hours out in the cold! This is because most national companies use sub-contractors and as such they priorities their own workload first, which means more often than not you get pushed down the queue! More importantly, many national companies do not vet their locksmiths to the extent we do, so you can never be quite sure who is turning up!
Instead, we strongly recommend using a truly local company that is based in Rotherham – like us! Due to the fact we’re based in the area, we can minimise travel time and get to you in the quickest possible time, usually within 60 minutes. Additionally, we are focussed on ensuring our customer care is of the highest standard, we can’t afford to let customers down, our reputation depends on you!

How to Avoid Being Locked Out of Your Home in Rotherham
Did you get locked out of your home? Are you afraid it might happen again? It’s very reasonable to have such fears. Getting locked out of your home isn’t a happy feeling. So, here’s how you can avoid emergency lockouts:
Invest in and Install One or More Accredited Police-Approved Key Safes
Having an accredited key safe fitted by one of our skilled locksmiths provides a secure location for storing spare keys, ensuring they are readily available in case of an emergency. These key safes are exceptionally secure, with the only unauthorised access method requiring an angle grinder, thereby offering additional reassurance.
Regularly Service Existing locks Around Your Home and Business
It is advisable to arrange for your locks to be serviced every 6-12 months by a professional locksmith in order to maintain them in optimal working condition. A crucial aspect of lock maintenance is using the correct lubricants: PTFE lubricant is suitable for multi-point locking mechanisms, while graphite powder is perfect for traditional Euro locks.
