Did a very good job. When a problem came up it was explained to us and dealt with really well.Verified reviewerJob location: PO510 Back door wouldn’t open at all so John ( door 25 years old )ordered a lock and adapted it to fit .

John was quick to respond to my emergency and arrived within the hour and temporarily repaired the back door lock till he had ordered a part and came the next day to adapt it to the old door . He also mended the front door lock. He charged what he quoted and was extremely tidy , efficient and a complete professional and I would highly recommend him . ThankyouVerified reviewerJob location: PO610 Repair seized front door locking mechanism

John was fantastic - he arrived when he said he would, was able to assess the problem and offered different solutions. He communicated what he was doing and answered all my questions. I now have a fully functioning front door and peace of mind that I'm not going to get locked out the house! Would highly recommend John!Verified reviewerJob location: PO610 Highly recommended!

After our front door lock failed, we hired John from Lockfit to fit a new multi point lock strip, new cylinders and new handles. John contacted me very quickly after I reached out for a quote and was able to come and look over the issue in person to provide a quote. The job was very reasonably priced and he was able to schedule the job at very short notice, to limit disruption on our side. Work was completed to a high standard, he worked through a couple of unforeseen problems and left the place tidy once finished. Great stuff.Verified reviewerJob location: PO510 3 x new locks plus gearbox

Excellent and helpful service. We got locked out on a bank holiday weekend Sunday morning and were in the house within 2 hours of calling. Highly recommend John and would not hesitate to call on him again.Verified reviewerJob location: PO6
