    Lock Repair

    Posted 1 week ago

    First class, look no further.

    Darren was first class. The door had been forced and Darren repaired the frame and door and added a security strip and adjusted the lock to make good. Excellent in every sence. Would be my first go to if needed again.

    Polite, professional and reasonable locksmith.

    Darren was very polite and professional. He came to replace 2 door locks but ended up fitting 3. His charges are very reasonable. I would have no hesitation in recommending Darren.

    Emergency Locksmith Service

    Posted 25 June

    Prompt and efficient call out

    Darren attended promptly after contacting him. He arrived within two hours which was when he said he would. I was unable to open my back door as the latches had seized. He quickly managed to open the door and then serviced the locking mechanism. He also made note of the type and make of mechanism just in case I had further trouble with it and in case it needed replacing. It's been fine since. He was efficient, polite, tidy and reasonable priced for what in effect was an emergency call out. I would be happy to use his services again should the need arise
