Lockout cards, lock upgrade flyers, landlord change-of-tenant cards and security check sheets
Locksmiths need two kinds of print: a tough A6 card with a clear price-and-call-out promise that people keep for the day they are locked out, and a DL flyer for planned work such as anti-snap cylinder upgrades and lock changes after moving house. This page covers what to print, live prices, ready packs, sample layouts, wording, timing and the pricing rules that matter most in this trade.
Many people search for a locksmith while standing on the doorstep, and some end up with a national call centre and a bill far above the quote. A local locksmith's print is there to be found first: a card in the drawer, the car or a neighbour's hand, with a real name, a real area and a price structure people can understand.
A stiff A6 card, or a smaller one for a wallet, with your number, the areas you cover and what a lockout call costs. It is kept because it is the answer to a worry most people have had.
Many older uPVC doors still have euro cylinders that can be snapped. A flyer explaining the risk calmly, with a photo of the cylinder to look for, gives people a reason to call for planned work.
New owners rarely know how many keys are out there. Leaflets left with local estate agents and conveyancers, and dropped on new-build estates, reach people in the weeks they move in.
Letting agents need locks changed between tenants and quick lockout help for residents. A card on the agent's desk, and a leaflet for landlords, wins repeat work.
A writable sheet for a home security visit: doors, windows, cylinders, garage and shed, with notes and a price for each suggestion. It makes recommendations clear and easy to agree to.
Flyers for shops and offices offering master key systems, shutter locks and access control, delivered by hand along high streets and business parks.
Locksmiths with a shop use counter leaflets in a holder so customers waiting for keys pick up information on upgrades and safes.

These are sample designs we made to show layout and wording. The business names, numbers and addresses are invented.

Locksmith wording should be calm, local and exact about price. Swap the bracketed parts.
Lockouts happen all year; planned security work rises when the nights draw in. Keep cards flowing all year and time upgrade drops for autumn.
October to December is peak for security upgrades as the evenings get darker and burglary worries grow. Summer brings holiday-time lockouts and moving-house lock changes.
Run cylinder and security flyers in late September and October, when the clocks go back. Lock-change flyers to new estates and via estate agents work in spring and summer, when most house moves complete.
Lockout cards are year-round: give them out with every job.
A mobile locksmith usually does well with 1,000 to 2,500 flyers a month in target streets and a steady supply of cards: one or two per customer, plus a stack for each agent.
Through doors on estates with uPVC and composite doors, with estate agents, conveyancers and letting agents, at key-cutting counters, on community noticeboards and in local business parks for commercial work.
Respect 'no junk mail' signs and any council rules on leaflet handouts.
Upgrade flyers usually bring a handful of calls per thousand, more after local news of break-ins. Lockout cards pay back slowly and unpredictably, which is why tracking where each caller got your number matters.
Locksmith cards are carried and kept; flyers explain planned work. Choose weight for how long each needs to last.
| Job | Size | Paper | Finish | Why |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lockout keep cards | A6 | 350gsm silk card | Gloss front | Durable in drawers and gloveboxes. |
| Wallet cards | A7 | 350gsm silk card | Rounded corners | Fits a wallet without fraying corners. |
| Upgrade flyers | DL | 170gsm silk | None | Room to explain the risk with a photo. |
| Security check sheets | A4 | 120gsm smooth white | None | Takes pen; works in an office printer. |
| Shop counter leaflets | DL or A5 | 170gsm silk | In a counter holder | Neat display while customers wait. |
Make the phone number the largest text on any lockout card, at least 24pt.
Keep pricing wording identical across cards, flyers and your website, so customers see the same terms everywhere.
Locksmiths have no licensing body in England and Wales, but price advertising rules apply firmly. These are the points to check before printing.
If you print a price, it must include charges every customer pays, such as a call-out fee or minimum labour, or show them clearly beside it. The CAP Code treats a headline price that hides compulsory charges as misleading.
CAP Code (non-broadcast)Saying or implying you are local when calls go to a distant firm can mislead. The unfair commercial practices rules in the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 cover misleading claims about a trader.
DMCC Act 2024Show the Master Locksmiths Association logo or other scheme badges only while you are a member, and name a lock standard only if the products you fit meet it.
Master Locksmiths AssociationPlanned upgrades agreed in the customer's home usually carry a 14-day cancellation right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. Urgent lockouts the customer asks you to do straight away are treated differently.
Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013This is a printer's checklist, not legal advice. If you are unsure about a claim, ask Trading Standards or your locksmith trade body before the leaflets go to print.
A stiff A6 card on 350gsm with your number, area and how lockout calls are priced. People keep it in a drawer or glovebox for the day they need it. Add a DL flyer for planned work such as anti-snap cylinder upgrades and lock changes after moving house.
Clear pricing builds trust in this trade, but any figure must include the call-out and charges every customer pays. Many locksmiths print how the price is made up and promise the exact figure on the phone before setting off.
Late September to November, when the clocks change and people think about home security. Spring and summer suit lock-change leaflets for people moving house. Lockout cards should go out with every job all year.
A7 (74 × 105 mm) is a good wallet size on 350gsm card, especially with rounded corners. It holds your name, number, area and one line on pricing. Use A6 for door drops so it is not lost among the post.
Only while you are a current member and as the association allows. The same goes for any other scheme or standard you mention: claim it only when it is true for your business and the products you fit.
Yes. Agents need locks changed between tenants and help when residents are locked out. A small card on the desk, with how you bill agents and log keys, often leads to steady repeat work.
