    Garage Door Lock Fix

    Posted 11 January

    I called John out initially to fix a broken side access garage door handle. This job subsequently morphed into a larger job fixing the lock and metal framework to a broken back gate. John was a top man and went above and beyond to fix both problems. John is very responsive, polite and professional, I’d have no hesitation to contact John again. Thanks John.

    Quick response and great service

    Posted 06 December 2025

    John came over in short notice to come repair my front door gear box which had failed. He was incredibly helpful on the phone consultation before hand and agreed to see what was wrong before quoting me the repair price. He was on time, very friendly and we had a great chat while he was here. He was very informative to what had broken, which was exactly what he said on the phone, and incredibly skilled when it came to the actual repair. Overall, a wonderful service and I highly recommend John for any lock/door related issues!

    Key safe Replacement

    Posted 31 October 2025

    John replied quickly to my request to retrieve keys form an old key safe and to replace the unit. From the request going in at 6pm, the work was complete by 11am the following morning. Would definitely recommend.

    Great from start to finish.

    Posted 23 October 2025

    Great service from start to finish. I was after a full front door upgrade on my lock system, from a basic key lock to a wifi, remote managed lock system for the family with a full back up system via key which is is fully rated for cover with insurance companies. Really happy all is working as it should, great coms through out and would recommend to others.
