Job was to adjust PVC doors which had become a bit loose and weren't closing cleanly or tightly. A bit slow in communicating but a very good job at a good price.Verified reviewerJob location: SE129.67 window lock repair

We have used A&E locksmiths previously. And as always they were outstanding in all aspects from initial consultation to finishing the job. Very knowledgeable, efficient and tidy. Highly recommend for any security concerns or even simple lock changes.Verified reviewerJob location: DA149.33 window lock fitting
