Lockforce Selby – 5 Common Locksmith Myths Busted
When it comes to keeping your Selby home secure, there are plenty of myths and misconceptions about locksmiths and locks. At Lockforce Selby, we hear them all the time. To help clear things up, here are the top 5 locksmith myths – and the truth behind them.
Myth 1: All Locks Are the Same
False – Not all locks offer the same level of protection. Basic locks may be cheap, but they provide little resistance against intruders. High security and British Standard locks give Selby homeowners the strong protection they need against break-ins.
Myth 2: Locksmiths Are Too Expensive
Wrong – Many people assume locksmiths cost a fortune, but in reality, using a professional often saves money in the long run. A skilled locksmith does the job properly the first time, avoiding the damage and extra expense that DIY fixes can cause.
Myth 3: Locksmiths Only Cut Keys
Not true – At Lockforce Selby, we do far more than key cutting. Our services include:
- Emergency lockouts
- Lock changes and upgrades
- uPVC door and window lock repairs
- High security and British Standard lock installations
- 24/7 emergency locksmith services
Myth 4: If You’re Locked Out, You’ll Need a New Door
Busted – A professional locksmith can usually get you back inside without damaging your door. At Lockforce Selby, we use specialist tools and techniques for non-destructive entry – so you won’t need an expensive new door.
Myth 5: Locksmiths Only Work 9 to 5
Definitely not – Lock problems don’t wait for office hours. That’s why Lockforce Selby offers 24/7 emergency locksmith services, so help is always just a phone call away, day or night.

Why You Should Change Your Locks When Moving Into a New Home
Moving into a new home in Selby is an exciting chapter — fresh beginnings, new memories, and a space to truly call your own.
But before you settle in, one vital step is essential: changing your locks.
Previous owners, tenants, builders, or estate agents may still have copies of your keys.
Without changing your locks, you can’t be sure who has access to your property. By fitting new locks, you take control of your home security from day one.
Basic Security Locks, High Security Locks & British Standard Locks
Basic Security Locks: Convenient and affordable, but they provide minimal protection. Vulnerable to lock snapping, bumping, or picking.
High Security Locks: Resistant to break-ins with anti-snap, anti-drill, and anti-pick features. Keys are restricted for added security.
British Standard Locks: Carry the BS3621 Kitemark, proven against forced entry. Often required by insurance companies, offering maximum security and peace of mind.
