Be Assured - We Never Use Sub-Contractors
Using subcontractors can pose several risks, including inconsistent service quality, security concerns, and potential damage to reputation. Since subcontractors may not always adhere to the same training standards, techniques, or customer service protocols as the ones we do, this can result in unsatisfactory workmanship or delays.
Additionally, if background checks are not thoroughly conducted, there’s an increased risk of security breaches or untrustworthy individuals handling sensitive customer information.
At Lock & Key Barnsley you can be assured that all our locksmiths are fully employed by us direct. We will never use sub-contractors to carry out work on our behalf.

A Brief History of Barnsley
Barnsley, nestled in the heart of South Yorkshire, is a town rich in heritage and culture, boasting iconic landmarks such as the 18th-century Cannon Hall, impressive St. Mary’s Church, the imposing Old Courthouse and the breath-taking Locke Park Tower which attracts visitors year-round. Many visitors to the town could easily be forgiven for thinking that Barnsley has always been this way, a thriving place with all the features, conveniences, and amenities of a 21st-century town.
Many people fail to recognise Barnsley’s rich cultural and historical roots, from being an important centre of trade and commerce in the 11th century to a bustling coal mining and glassmaking hub in the early 19th century. This vibrant traditional South Yorkshire town embraces its colourful history while at the same time welcomes in the 21st century with fully open arms.
Visitors flock to the Victorian-era Wentworth Castle Gardens and other local destinations if not spending the rest of the day exploring the Town Centre’s many world-class offerings, from high-street chains to local artisan shops. Centuries-old markets remain a must go-to for those seeking out the rarest finds.
Barnsley made it to the silver screen, too, in the 1969 film “Kes.” and more recently in the 1996 film “Brassed Off” which illustrated the towns long standing association with brass bands. Renowned personalities like cricket umpire Dickie Bird, broadcaster Michael Parkinson and folk singer Kate Rusby also can claim their birth place as Barnsley. Unsurprisingly, annual events, like the Barnsley Live music festival, never fail to draw large crowds, as do annual food and drink events.
Unfortunately, there have been challenges in Barnsley’s remarkable growth in South Yorkshire. Recent statistics indicate that burglary and vehicle crime continue to remain ongoing concerns, reflecting national trends in urban crime.
Barnsley and its 72,000 residents recognise the necessity of safeguarding their homes, shops, offices, vehicles, and other valuable possessions against theft, burglary, and other property crimes. While not absolute, professional locksmith services can play an important role in improving property security while ensuring the rest of the town is safe for everyone.
Local locksmiths in Barnsley are in the best position to help residents and businesses protect their investments, from houses and small shops to vehicles and large commercial premises. Our expert local locksmiths understand what the town needs and how property crimes can sow fear among residents.
From comprehensive security assessments to heavy-duty lock installations, smart lock upgrades, and more, professional locksmiths in Barnsley offer more than a practical solution to deter criminal elements. They work to create a safer environment and help restore people’s confidence in their town.
