Locksmith for Keith
Keith is an inland market town in the east of Moray, on the River Isla and the A96, and it’s listed among the towns Moray Locksmith covers. It’s about 30 miles from Forres, so give Colin a call to check timings, especially for emergencies.
Rural and farm security
Much of the area around Keith is farmland, with steadings, sheds, workshops and machinery stores. Rural security is a different job from town security: buildings are spread out, often can’t be seen from the road, and hold valuable kit. Sensible measures include:
- closed-shackle padlocks and heavy-duty hasps on outbuildings
- keyed-alike padlocks, so one key works across the yard
- bolts and locks on garage and workshop side doors
- good lighting and keeping ladders and tools locked away

Town homes
In Keith itself, Colin deals with the usual mix: uPVC doors that won’t lock, worn cylinders, lock changes after moving house and BS 3621 upgrades for insurance.
Distillery country
Keith is home to the Strathisla distillery and sits on the edge of Speyside. Businesses here benefit from master key systems, access control and properly secured stores. See commercial services.
