    Replacing broken conservatory lock

    Posted 15 May

    Alan came round immediately to examine what was needed doing and then after repairing one of the conservatory doors spent time adjusting it so that it wouldn't break again. He communicated all the time about what he was doing and why, and even checked out another worry I had at the same time. Excellent service and price. I cannot recommend him highly enough. This is exactly the great service we had for him two years ago when our main door lock gave up the ghost on a sunny Sunday when all our family had just returned from the seaside.

    Replacement of broken front door lock

    Posted 05 May

    As our front door lock had broken, we had no way of securing the house so we needed an emergency locksmith visit asap. After contacting Alan from All Locked Out and explaining our situation, he arrived within half an hour. Made sure that our broken lock at least secured the front door temporarily and ordered a new insurance compliant lock for delivery and fitting the next day. We are now fully secure thanks to the excellent prompt, efficient and effective response from All Locked Out. Communication from start to finish could not be faulted. All round excellence at a very reasonable price.

    Excellent change of locking gear and fitting handles

    Posted 04 May

    Alan responded really quickly. Replacement all fitted next morning! Excellent. Very tricky job as the old locking gear was different fit to new replacement. Alan's skills are amazing ! We now have a better lock than previously. All fitted professionally and with a smile. Definitely would recommend.

I'm Alan Hocknell, trading as All Locked Out. I am a skilled 24 hour locksmith with over 15 years experience and I live in Tenterden, Kent, with my wife, daughter and our Jack Russell, Baxter.Unlike many other locksmiths, I don’t charge a call out fee; instead I provide a clear price for the job to be done, with no surprises later. I am reliable, conscientious, fast, friendly and good value.

I work for private individuals, commercial clients, housing associations and letting agencies. 90% of jobs are completed in one visit as my van is always well stocked with a variety of insurance compliant BS3621 locks.

I work as non-destructively as possible (ie: picking locks rather than drilling) and I reach most customers within 30 minutes of their call, and often much quicker!

Please call me for a no obligation quotation. I am not a call centre or agency, so when you call you will reach me directly.
