10 Excellent job, would use again.
Posted 27 January
My request for a free quote was answered promptly. Visit for the quote was less than 2 hours later and the job completed there and then. I was given help and advise about different product before deciding what would be best for me. I was also told very clearly how to register the product in case I had any issues at any point. My property was respected by a very polite locksmith and no mess was left. I would certainly use them again.Verified reviewerJob location: YO30Response from Towergate Locksmiths Limited

10 Great service

Job location: YO32We contacted David to arrange a convenient time to do a lock change/ repair. He was knowledgeable and professional. He arrived punctually. He assesssed the problem and gave us good honest advice before we committed to having the work done. He went above and beyond by adapting the handle so ensuring we could safely use the door easily. The cost of the change of lock etc was very reasonable. We will certainly use David and Towergate Locksmith Ltd again if required in the future .Response from Towergate Locksmiths Limited
Thank you Janet for your very kind words of support for our business and the service we have provided. We were happy to assist you with your lock issue and would be on hand for you again should you need us. Cheers, David

Towergate Locksmiths Ltd is an independent local locksmith company providing fast, reliable, and friendly service by experienced tradespeople.
Our business and reputation have been built on ensuring that our customers are entirely happy with the work and service we provide them.
We understand that if you're looking for a locksmith then typically one or more of your window or door locks has stopped working properly, has completely broken, or perhaps you just got your key stuck in the lock or you've misplaced or lost the keys. No matter what the problem may be, we will have a fast and efficient solution for you, ensuring your property is always protected.
As an independent local company, we’ll guarantee that when you contact us, we will;
· Always guarantee you speak directly to a locksmith not a call centre who may not be able to understand your needs.
· Always answer the phone or call you back immediately.
· Always ensure you are fully informed about the worked required to be done and the associated costs before the work is commenced.
· Always provide you with choices about the type and quality of locks that could be fitted to ensure you are comfortable about the level of security they provide.
Our Services include.
Lock Repair & Replacement
· We can fix most failing locks before they break. Or if a lock is beyond even our ability to repair, we can replace it from the extensive range we carry.
uPVC Door & Window Locks
· uPVC doors can easily jam in their frame and sliding patio doors stick in their tracks. Ask us to resolve these problems so you will not have to replace those units which can be very expensive.
Lock Installations
· We can install new locks to improve security or where a new door may require a lock fitting from scratch.
Low Prices
· We think we have some of the best locksmith prices in North Yorkshire. Call for a no obligation quote and compare our fees to local and national competitors.
No Call-Out Fee
· 24/7 Service for Emergency Lockouts and No Call-Out Fee. And no fee either for a scheduled appointment which will always be arranged to suit you.
No VAT to Pay!
· As a smaller independent locksmith, unlike National affiliates, we don’t have to charge VAT. That’s usually a saving of at least 20% on prices immediately!
Moved Property Lock Changes
· Homeowners and Tenants – When you move into a new property it is unlikely that you know how many keys for your new property are in circulation and this may be an unwanted and unnecessary risk. For valuable peace of mind and security, we can replace all external door locks at a special package price.
Locks and Handles Etc.
· Locks -We carry a large range of locks which include varying levels of security right through to British Standard and high security options. At the very minimum we will only install locks that are rated as Snap Safe.
As a company we are very proud of the quality of our work and services we provide. To see what our customers say about us please check out our reviews.
