Hi, I’m Cammy Fraser — owner of Castle Lock & Key, your local locksmith serving Edinburgh and the surrounding areas.
I’ve lived and worked in Edinburgh all my life. At 16, I left school and began my career as an apprentice locksmith at Duncan McLarens, where I spent 9 years gaining hands-on experience and learning the trade. I then continued working in the locksmith industry for another 15 years with a local firm, honing my skills, building strong client relationships, and earning a reputation for reliable, honest work.
With over 24 years of experience, I decided to set up Castle Lock & Key — a fully mobile locksmith service dedicated to helping people across Edinburgh with everything from emergency lockouts to British Standard lock upgrades.
Whether you’re locked out, need your locks repaired, or want to improve your home security, I bring the tools, experience, and customer-first attitude to get the job done right.
Your security is my priority — and I look forward to helping you feel safe and secure in your home or business.
