Who We Are: Built On Professionalism & Integrity
Locksafe York Ltd is a registered local locksmith company based in the heart of North Yorkshire (Registered Company No: 12439734). Operating from our base at 9 Bossall, York, YO60 7NT, we have earned an enviable reputation as the go-to independent specialist for emergency entry, comprehensive lock replacements, and high-security installations.
Founded on the simple principle of delivering premium tradesman services without the extortionate price tag, we have always prioritized customer satisfaction. When you call us, you do not reach a national, faceless call centre; you speak directly with a dedicated, highly trained local locksmith. We understand how stressful lockouts, burglaries, and faulty locking mechanisms can be, which is why we approach every job with empathy, urgency, and absolute professionalism.
From cold winter nights causing uPVC doors to contract and jam, to unfortunate summer break-ins requiring urgent burglary repairs, our team works tirelessly to keep York and surrounding areas secure.

The Principles That Guide Us
At Locksafe York Ltd, we hold ourselves to rigorous standards. We understand that a lock is more than just hardware; it represents the ultimate safety of your family, your livelihood, and your assets.
Empathy and Reassurance
Getting locked out of your home or premises can be deeply stressful. Our team is trained to deliver calming, helpful support from the second you call until the lock is securely resolved.
Quality of Workmanship
We do not cut corners. Whether repairing a uPVC mechanism or fitting a premium mortice lock, we only install superior locks from recognized, dependable brands.
Fair and Transparent Pricing
We strongly reject the bait-and-switch pricing common in the trade industry. We offer clear, transparent quotes with zero hidden fees, so you always know exactly what to expect.
Expert Compliance & Security Standards
We ensure all work adheres to rigorous UK regulatory guidelines, preventing any risk of your home or commercial insurance being invalidated.
British Standard BS3621 Compliance
A vast majority of major UK home insurance policies mandate that all external timber exit doors are fitted with locks that comply with British Standard BS3621. Fitting non-compliant locks could completely void your home insurance coverage in the event of a break-in. We carry a wide stock of BS3621 approved sashlocks and deadbolts to secure your home correctly.
