Mid Ulster is a dispersed rural district in the centre of Northern Ireland, home to around 152,000 people across towns like Cookstown, Dungannon and Magherafelt. Mid Ulster has one of the highest rates of rural and self-build housing in Northern Ireland, with bungalows and detached homes across the countryside and more concentrated stock in Cookstown, Dungannon and Magherafelt.
For a locksmith that usually means lock changes, lockouts and security upgrades. Towns such as Cookstown, Dungannon and Magherafelt were connected under the Gas to the West project, but the district is strongly oil-dependent given how rural and dispersed its housing is.
