A Boldon locksmith,
aiming to be on the doorstep in around 15 minutes.

Boldon sits in NE36, right on the boundary between Sunderland and South Tyneside, and we're typically with you in around 20 minutes from the city centre. It's a mixed area, West Boldon leaning more village with older stone and brick properties, East Boldon slightly newer with 1970s and 1980s semis spreading out towards the A184. We get called out here for everything from straightforward lockouts to cylinder upgrades on doors that haven't been touched since the house was built.

We come in along the A184 from Sunderland, dropping off at the Boldon Lane junction depending on which side of the village you're on. West Boldon's older stock around Front Street and the village green has wooden front doors with aged mortice locks that often give trouble in winter. East Boldon and the streets off Witney Way tend to have uPVC multi-point locks, some installed during the 1990s building wave and well overdue a service or replacement. Honestly, the split between the two Boldons means almost every job here is a different type of door.

Most common Boldon jobs
