Chelmsford
Efficient, friendly and knowledgeable when calling to make booking- charges clearly explained. Andy arrived on date and time booked and effectively repaired door catch, explains what had gone wrong and also the likelihood of future maintenance requirements. He also gave us very helpful security advice ... and made friends with our puppy! Would definitely recommend The Lockfather.
Replacing a faulty lock
If you need a trusted and reliable locksmith look no further than The Lock Father. I needed guidance on whether it was worth replacing a faulty lock on an old UPVC door. I called and spoke to Cheryl and Andy - both extremely helpful. Over a video call Andy took the time to check my door for all potential issues and quickly confirmed the problem. Ben then arrived a couple of hours later and replaced the gear box and also realigned the door with great attention to detail. Highly, highly recommend this company for both their advice and workmanship.

They changed my front door lock
This is the second time that I've used the Lock Father; both times they came to complete the work within 24 hours of me calling them. The locksmiths were friendly, polite, professional and did a really good job. The cost of both jobs were well worth the money, I highly recommended them.
Lock repair to external kitchen door
Prompt proficient professional. I was pleased with work carried out however on reflection the price charged for replacement parts rather exorbitant. Checking what I was charged by the contractor against comparable items on the web the difference was in excess of 50% at least. In saying this I did agree to what was charged and will be more careful in future. For the work I would use this trader again for the price not.
