    New locking mechanism

    Posted 10 April

    My back door would not unlock causing chaos with a puppy who constantly wants to come in and out. Michael dropped his own personal plans to come straight out and managed to unlock the door and fit a new locking mechanism. He was very quick and professional and reasonably priced. Would not hesitate to recommend and use again.

    Moved to new home and he came out at short notice to change all of the locks.

    Posted 02 February

    Really short notice but he was there within less than 30 minutes. Really friendly, professional and gave me helpful info for my home insurance quote. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a professional and reliable service. Thank you so much for helping me on moving day

    The front door handle had become loose and we were concerned the lock would fail.

    Posted 15 January

    I contacted Keyforce yesterday and they advised they would be here today between 9 - 11 am. The chap arrived at 9.10 and told us the barrel of the lock was worn and needed replacing. The work was carried out immediately and efficiently, and with a 2 year guarantee Excellent all round and all in 45 minutes

Keyforce Locksmiths is a locally owned and operated 24 hour emergency Locksmith business ran by Michael Brown.

I offer a 24 hour 7 day a week service to residential and commercial customers including, Emergency door opening, Faulty locks changed and upgraded where necessary, Free security advice given, Insurance work as well as other services such as automotive non destructive entry. I can also fit locks to wrought iron and can carry out welding which may be required on some projects.

I specialise in UPVC and carry around 80% of all Mortice Locks, Padlocks, Euro Cylinders, Bullet Locks, Roller Shutter Locks, Garage Door Locks and Mechanisms so most jobs can be carried out with one visit but if a second visit is necessary I don't charge extra like some Locksmiths.

The price I give is the price you pay.

I cut Mortice and Cylinder keys on site which is a bonus because the keys can be checked with the lock before I leave the property. Unlike most Locksmiths operating in the Northeast when you ring you speak to me directly and I will answer any questions directly and honestly and will give you step by step advice and options as well as a price over the phone if necessary, then I will personally attend your property and carry out the work.

I also offer you a realistic time scale in which I can get to your property, which in most cases is 30 minutes. Upon arrival you will be pleased to know that the engineer you spoke to on the phone is the engineer who will carry out the work, unlike some companies who have call centre staff with no knowledge of Locksmithing.

I am also an affiliate of ADT, the national alarm company so if you need alarms just speak to me about it.
