An established joiner from Southport has unlocked the key to success after launching a thriving new locksmith business. 

Shaun Huyton, who has over 35 years’ experience as one of the top joiners in the region, now runs the fast-growing Lockbusters locksmiths.

The family-run business covers the Southport area as well as parts of Merseyside and Lancashire. 

Shuan offers a wide range of services for customers including home owners, local businesses, estate agents, property management companies and more. 

Lockbusters is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for anyone who needs help and support – often at a time when they are in urgent need of help. 

Shaun offers:

  • A reliable, professional and friendly service
  • Available 24 hours a day 365 days a year 
  • Competitive pricing 
  • All work fully guaranteed 

If you’re locked out, security-conscious, or would simply like Lockbusters to review and maintain your current locks, they would love you to get in touch.

Shaun Huyton said: “I am much more than a locksmith. I am a qualified joiner by trade, with over 35 years in handling locks, repairs, and servicing, which really helps what I do. 

“Many locksmiths can help people when they are locked out of their home. But I can offer far more. 

“I launched the business in July because I felt there was a real need for what I do in the area. 

“The response has been fantastic. I’ve got lots of work coming in, from local residents, local businesses, local property management companies. 

“I have enjoyed going to some of the networking events in Southport such as the Sandgrounders Business Club, Real 5 and Shout Network. 

“I am really keen to get the word out to as many people in Southport and the surrounding areas that if anyone ever needs a good, reliable local locksmith, then I am here. 

“At Lockbusters, we offer a tailored, personalised approach to addressing your lock and security needs. 

“Whether your lock has failed due to wear and tear or it’s been maliciously damaged, we are here to help 24 hours a day. Ensure your home is secured as soon as possible by calling us. If you’re locked out and need access to your property, we are ready to help! 

“When an emergency happens and you’re locked out of your home, you need someone who can get there fast, and that means Lockbusters.

“Unlike larger companies, we typically operate on a smaller scale, focusing on providing individualised attention and high-quality service to each client.

“Residential locksmithing services that we provide may include installing new locks and repairing damaged locks. 

“We can also help with emergency lockouts, ensuring you can get back into your home quickly and efficiently.

“We work 24 hours a day, 365 hours a year. In this job, you have to be able to offer a service like that. When people need help, you have to be able to be there, and not in 24 hours, but as soon as you can.

“If someone gets locked out of their home on Christmas Day they know where to find us!” 

Shaun’s extensive background in joinery has provided him with the perfect grounding, and also allows him to provide additional services should they be required.. 

He said: “We are a one-stop shop for UPVC and aluminium. We can fix it, we can supply it, we can get into it. 

“We can gain entry; repair locks; replace locks; we can work with any type of door, whether it’s timber, UPVC, aluminium etc. 

“We have just completed a job in Crossens, fixing a smart lock into a lovely, arched oak door. 

“The home owner contacted a couple of national locksmith firms who said the job just couldn’t be done. 

“I love a challenge like that. I have been out and completed the work, and the client is delighted with it. 

“That’s where 35 years’ experience in joinery helps. I have always wanted to be the best at what I do. 

“Our prices are extremely competitive too, just £60 for a call out to gain entry with £80 between 5pm and 8am.

“Unlike some firms, we will always do all I can to try and unpick the pock rather than replace it, to keep people’s costs down.”
