Open Everyday 8AM-11:30PM
Most emergency calls we take are not dramatic. A door pulled shut with the keys still inside, a key snapped off in the cylinder, a child or a dog on the wrong side of it. Castle Locksmiths Limited answers those calls across the Bradford district around the clock, opens the door without destroying it wherever the lock allows, and leaves you with something that still locks properly afterwards.

Anything that leaves a person shut out, a property standing open, or a vulnerable occupant on the wrong side of a door. Those jump the queue; a planned upgrade does not.

Anything that leaves a person shut out, a property standing open, or someone vulnerable on the wrong side of a door. Those jump the queue; a planned upgrade is booked in normally.
Drilling is the last resort, not the first move. Rim nightlatches are manipulated, cylinders are picked or raked, and letterbox and slip tools are used where the door allows. Only a high-security cylinder with no other route gets drilled.
Vans set off from Manningham Lane, so Manningham, Heaton and the city centre are minutes away, and the run out to Shipley, Bingley and Keighley follows the valley. You get an honest arrival window on the call, not a guess.
Yes. Broken key extraction is routine work — the remaining blade is drawn out with extractors and the lock is then tested. If the cylinder itself is worn or damaged we can replace it on the same visit from van stock.
Yes. Forced doors in timber, composite and aluminium are repaired or boarded, damaged locks are replaced, and every lock is checked before we leave so the property is soundly locked.
Before our van arrives, there are a few steps you can take to prepare. First, get yourself somewhere safe and well-lit.
It's important not to attempt prising the door or forcing a window, as this could cause further damage. If you have a spare key with a family member or neighbour, now is the time to retrieve it.
If possible, take a clear photograph of the lock face. This can help our engineer understand the situation better before arriving.
Remember, our team is fully equipped and can handle a range of lock types, including Ultion, Yale, and Chubb, whether they're on uPVC, composite, or timber doors.
Feel free to raise any concerns with our engineer while they're en route. Call 0113 841 4370 whenever you need us — the line is answered day and night.
