    Handy Locks: excellent service, strongly recommended.

    Posted 26 January

    Andy came and fixed our front gate lock on Friday. This has not been working for sometime. As soon as he had arrived Andy quickly replaced the old mechanism and very soon after that the gate lock was working again. We were really pleased that Andy responded to our request for help so quickly and professionally. We most strongly recommend Handy Locks.

    Good to have Andy for any lock problems

    Posted 31 October 2025

    Andy came out within a couple of hours when my front door key snapped off in the lock. After trying every implement to remove it it wouldn’t budge so he replaced the lock like for like very quickly. Friendly and a quick worker I would recommend him to anyone in this area.

    Andy was a very friendly, helpful and efficient. He fitted us in very quickly and came the next day when we had a slight problem that ended up being nothing to do with his work!

    Highly Recommend Handy Locks for excellent, affordable and swift service

    Posted 16 September 2025

    We had several different problems with various locks around our house. One doorhandle had a broken spindle, two external double glazed doors were very stiff to lock and unlock, a double glazed window lock refused to open and some of our front door keys worked and some did not. A real variety and all annoying as well as the concern that one day the locks would seize up and not work at all. Andy came promptly to look at all these problems, gave us an afforable quote to cover all the work and then returned swiftly and replaced/mended each one expertly. Professional, friendly and prompt.

    Locked out of house without the key

    Posted 08 June 2025

    Upon returning from a Sunday evening walk I discovered I hadn’t taken the door key with me and was therefore locked out of my house. I called Handy locks for help. The locksmith arrived within 20 minutes and very quickly produced a key to unlock my door. It was such a relief to be able to enter my house, especially as I had thought I wouldn’t find anyone to come out on a Sunday evening!

    Lock repaired

    Posted 25 September 2024

    After calling another supposed local locksmith first for a quote, we decided not to use them, then called Handy Locks who came to look at our lock without a call out fee, talked us through the issue and remedy and with clear pricing, the work was carried out to a high standard and the price was exactly as quoted, would highly recommend.
