    Replaced lock chamber - good job - would recommend

    Posted 29 October

    Reliable and honest, got the job done. Went beyond by calling Banhams and recommending options. The part didn't fit as it should and he solved that too. Thanks John

    Great Job.

    Posted 01 October

    We were having trouble with the lock on our front door. We thought it would have to be replaced but John worked his magic and he was able to adjust it and now it’s working perfectly. He also checked and adjusted the other doors. All done quickly, efficiently and with a smile.

    Lockforce were great and more than helpful! We were locked out with rapid communication and confirmation. A temporary replacement lock was fitted before the full replacement was later installed. Thank you!

Welcome to Lockforce Locksmiths.

My name is John Blair and I'm a local fully trained locksmith serving all TN postcodes.

If you have a lock emergency - locked in or out - or need a locksmith to do some repairs, upgrade your locks, or install CCTV or Alarms, I can help.

My main aim - To make my local community feel safe in their properties.

Please call me if you have any problems with door & window locks, handles, hinges, alignment issues.

These sort of things that are 'just not working right'.

When locks and handles start sticking or handles start 'flopping', doors start dragging on the cill, or you must use force to shut or open your doors.... Take action BEFORE they jam or break on you, or you get locked out!

Worth Noting:

  • You will get a 12-month warranty on any lock that I supply and fit.
  • I do not charge VAT which helps to keep our prices competitive.
  • I am fully insured.
  • I am committed to offering a competitively priced, high-quality locksmith service with excellent aftercare.

Your recommendations and testimonials mean everything to me and my business.

You choose the service you need:

  • Gain Entry/access - To get YOU back in (or out), you can choose our "Gain entry" service
  • Lock upgrading and fitting - To get new locks fitted, you can choose our standard "new lock measure – fit - test" service
  • Lock upgrading and fitting (premium locks) – the same as above but with our top-grade locks
  • Lock Repairs and Maintenance - to get your doors or locks repaired or services, you can choose our "lock TLC package."
  • Window Locks - to get your windows safe and secure, you can choose our "window checking" service
  • Digital Door Locks - to upgrade to new digital / SMART locks, then choose our "smart lock technology" service
  • CCTV / Alarms - to have added security, then choose our "CCTV/Alarm" Service

Home Security Survey - to check your home security, choose our "Safe Home" survey service (and it's FREE).

MOVING INTO A NEW HOME?

Maybe Unsure of who has keys and therefore access to your property.... Change and upgrade your locks and handles.... I offer premium British Standard Kitemarked products.
