Why Quickpickings

The locksmith Sheffield
actually trusts.

Quickpickings was founded after a family burglary exposed how few locksmiths could actually be trusted. Everything we do is a reaction to that experience.

Family-run

Independent and Sheffield-based since 2018. Not a national chain. Not a call-centre brand.

Honest pricing

The quote you get is the price you pay. No call-out fees. No "oh, one more thing" on the invoice.

Properly qualified

City & Guilds certified. NFCE registered member. DBS enhanced checked. Insured and traceable.

Direct line

One number, no call centres. Calls answered by a qualified locksmith, every time.
Steven Codman Founder
Our story

Built after a
family burglary.

Quickpickings was started by Steven Codman in 2025, after a burglary at his mum's house exposed how few locksmiths in South Yorkshire he could actually trust. The mission has been the same ever since:
build the locksmith we needed that night — reachable, honest, properly qualified.
"Every job is a family's home. We treat it like we'd treat our own."
— Steven Codman, Founder
Seven years later, Quickpickings is still small on purpose. Fewer jobs, done properly. Independent, accountable, and based in Sheffield rather than dispatched from a call-centre two cities away.

Recently had a key/fob replaced for one of my vans, the service from Quickpickings was fantastic. Was really happy with the price and the quick turn around of them being able to do the work. Couldn't be happier. Will be recommending to all family and friends. 👍👍 Thanks. Again,
