The problem
What is costing you enquiries.
Common reasons a commercial locksmith site loses enquiries. Some of them will not apply to you; the free audit says which do.
- The homepage leads with house lockouts, so a facilities manager assumes the firm is domestic and moves on.
- Access control, exit hardware and master key systems are named in a list with no page explaining any of them.
- Insurance levels, vetting and scheme memberships are missing, so a buyer has to email to ask for basics they need for a supplier form.
- There is no route for account holders to report a fault separately from new enquiries.
- Photos show padlocks and keys rather than real doors, panic bars and installed hardware on commercial premises.
What is included
One rebuild, everything in it.
Service pages for master key systems, restricted keyways, emergency exit hardware, door closers and access control, written for the person who approves the spend.
A supplier information page stating insurance levels, vetting, memberships and account terms that you actually hold.
Sector pages for the kinds of premises you look after, such as schools, offices, healthcare and residential blocks.
A survey request form that asks for building type, door count and timescale, so the enquiry arrives ready to plan.
A separate fault-reporting route and number for existing account holders.
Your Google Business Profile described around commercial work, with categories and photos that match the site.
Getting found in Stoke-on-Trent
Local search, done properly.
Stoke-on-Trent is a Staffordshire city famous for its pottery industry, with a population of 260,000.
In a large town the commercial work sits with a few property managers, schools, the council estate team, industrial units and multi-site retailers. Firms from neighbouring towns bid for the same contracts, so your website needs to make proximity and continuity count: the engineers who will attend, the travel time to the main estates and business parks, and how you keep door schedules and key records on file. A page for each sector you serve gives a buyer from that sector something to forward to a colleague.
Stoke-on-Trent is large enough that the first page for commercial locksmith searches is genuinely contested, and directories take several of the slots. Ranking above a directory is easier than ranking above a competitor, because a directory cannot say anything specific about the work. Firms in Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stafford show up in the same results, because Google's idea of "near me" does not stop at the city boundary.
Stoke-on-Trent is known for its ceramics heritage, oatcake, and industrial regeneration. That shapes who is searching, what they expect to pay and how far they will travel, so a site for commercial locksmiths here should read like it belongs in Staffordshire, not like a template with the town name swapped in.
What it costs
£1,495, one-off.
The Growth Website is £1,495. That is the whole rebuild for a commercial locksmith business in Stoke-on-Trent: the audit, rewriting how you explain the work, design, build, the conversion and local search groundwork, tracking, speed and launch. About 14 working days. You own it outright.
Ongoing care is £149 a month if you want it, and nothing if you do not. There is no setup fee and no minimum term.

Questions
The ones that come up.
How do I show commercial work when clients will not want their building named?
Describe jobs by type and scale rather than by client: a multi-storey office rekeyed onto a restricted system, a school fitted with new exit hardware over a half term. Photograph the hardware and the finish, not the building frontage. Say on the site that you keep client details confidential, which is itself a reassurance to the next buyer.
Can account customers report faults through the website?
Yes. A separate fault form or number for account holders keeps urgent reports away from sales enquiries. It can ask for the site, the door or area affected and the priority, and send a copy to whoever runs your jobs. It is tested regularly on Growth Care, because a fault form that silently stops working is how contracts are lost.
Do I need a separate website for domestic and commercial work?
Usually not. One site with a clear commercial focus and a separate section for domestic work, if you do it, is easier to run and keeps your reviews and reputation in one place. What matters is that the homepage makes the commercial offer obvious and the domestic pages do not dilute it.
What will you need from me for the supplier information page?
Your insurance levels, how you vet engineers, any memberships or pre-qualification schemes you hold, how you handle purchase orders and invoicing, and whether you provide risk assessments and method statements. Coltura turns that into a page a buyer can use when filling in a supplier form. Nothing is added that you do not actually hold.
