Professional service

Here for you,
day or night.
Losing your keys is unsettling, especially when you have no idea where they have ended up. The natural reaction is to get a new set cut. The trouble is that cutting copies changes nothing about your security. The keys you lost still open your door, so if anyone has them, they can still walk in.
That is why Darren doesn’t cut replacement keys. On a lost-keys job the only fix that actually makes you secure is a new lock. He fits a fresh cylinder or lock, hands you a new set of keys, and from that moment the old keys are useless. Lockshire Locksmiths covers Wilmslow, Knutsford, Macclesfield, Cheadle Hulme and Cheadle, with the parts carried on the van so most jobs are done on the first visit. No call-out fee, no VAT, and a clear quote before any work starts.
New lock and fresh keys, usually on the same visit.
Lost keys come in all sorts of forms. A set dropped while you were out, a bag or wallet taken, a key snapped off in the door, or a spare you handed over and never got back. Whatever the situation, the answer is the same: change the lock so the missing keys are useless. These are the lost-key callouts Darren handles most often, and because the cylinder is being changed anyway it is the ideal moment to move up to an anti-snap, insurance-approved lock if you want to.
Lost House Keys
Front or back door keys lost or unaccounted for. Darren replaces the cylinder so the missing keys stop working, and supplies a fresh set on the same visit.
Keys Stolen With Your Address
If your keys went with a bag, wallet or phone that shows where you live, treat it as urgent. Whoever has them knows the door they fit. New lock fitted the same day in most cases.
Snapped Key in the Lock
Key broken off inside the cylinder. Darren removes the broken piece where he can and fits a new cylinder, with fresh keys included.
Lost Keys to a uPVC Door
On a uPVC door it is the euro cylinder that gets swapped, not the whole mechanism. Quick to do and keeps the cost down.
Just Moved In
No way of knowing how many copies of the old keys are still out there with previous owners or tradespeople. Changing the cylinders on day one is the only way to start fresh.
Landlord Between Tenancies
Tenant moved out and not every key came back. Darren changes the cylinder so the old keys are dead before the next tenant gets theirs.
Spare Key You Can't Get Back
Gave a spare to a lodger, an ex or a tradesperson and never got it returned? Darren replaces the cylinder so that key no longer works, without touching your other doors.
Locked Out With No Spare
Lost your keys and no spare to fall back on? Darren gets you back in, then changes the lock so the missing set is useless. Access restored and security sorted in one visit.

If there is any chance someone else could have them, yes. Cutting a new set leaves the lost keys working, so you would be no more secure than before. Changing the cylinder is the only way to be sure the old keys are useless. If you are certain they are somewhere safe in the house, Darren will give you an honest steer on the phone first.
Darren doesn't cut replacement keys, and that is on purpose. On a lost-keys job new copies don't solve the actual problem, because the missing keys still open your door. Fitting a new lock with fresh keys does. It is the difference between feeling secure and being secure.
Treat that as a priority. Darren is normally out on the road across Cheshire and can reach most jobs within about half an hour. Call him and he will tell you straight away how soon he can be with you.
Yes. A fresh set is included with every lock or cylinder he fits, so you are never left needing to get keys cut separately afterwards.
Yes. Darren removes the broken piece where he can and fits a new cylinder, with new keys included. A snapped key is often a sign the cylinder is worn, so replacing it solves the cause rather than just the symptom.
It is well worth it. You have no way of knowing how many copies of the old keys are still out there with previous owners, tradespeople or estate agents. Changing the cylinders on day one is the only way to know exactly who holds a working key.
