I contacted the Emergency Locksmith 24 and they were extremely helpful right from the start. They provided me with a quick appointment and showed up on time ready to do the job. They were incredibly skilled and knowledgeable and finished the job quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this locksmith company.
Fantastic, can't fault anything. I called about a broken front door lock, and they were out and had it fixed within the hour. Very pleased, thank you,
Excellent service thanks for getting back to me immediately and calling out so quickly. Definitely recommend your services
Fast, courteous and professional. Would recommend and use again.
Locked out of a South Cliff flat late on after a night shift, freezing. He picked it open calm as anything and had me inside without any damage to the door frame. Sound bloke, and fair about the cost too.
We run a guesthouse near the Old Town and one of the letting-room doors stopped locking properly in the middle of the season, worst possible timing with guests due. Phoned about and he came out same day, swapped the worn part and tested every door on the corridor before he left. Proper thorough.
Bought a place out at Eastfield and wanted every lock swapped before we brought the kids in, didn't fancy trusting old keys. Fast, tidy work, and he walked me through each thing he'd fitted so I actually understood it. No complaints here.

FAQ
Looking for a reliable locksmith near me in Scarborough? 24-hour, same-day emergency locksmith service
Scarborough grew from a 17th-century spa into what many call Britain's first seaside resort, and the castle still divides the coast into two bays from its headland. The Old Town runs steep and tight above the harbour, where the boats still land their catch. St Nicholas Cliff and South Cliff hold the tall Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them old boarding houses cut into flats now, each with its own lock quirks. Sandybed sits inland and quieter. Out at the southern edge, Eastfield, Cayton and Osgodby run to post-war estates and newer builds. We've worked doors across every one. Give us a ring from Scarborough and a locksmith is normally out to you in 15 to 30 minutes. Honest delays get mentioned there and then. You will be quoted £39 labour plus a lock from £25 if one is needed, and that lock price has the fitting inside it. Warranty cover lasts 12 months here and takes in parts and labour alike. We do not send anyone out until their DBS check and insurance are both in place.
Our local locksmith network reaches every part of Scarborough and the wider YO postcode area, including surrounding neighbourhoods such as North Yorkshire, The Old Town, St Nicholas Cliff, South Cliff, Sandybed.
