    Fantastic service

    Posted 30 September

    Very impressed by the speed and help that Wayne provided. We were unable to open our front door and needed to urgently get it open. I sent out a message on Checkatrade early in the morning and received a very rapid response. After sharing a couple of messages the problem was quickly resolved. I certainly know where to come if any locksmith needs in the future.

    Reliable, quick and friendly

    Posted 27 September

    Wayne is reliable, friendly and efficient. It was a difficult situation with an elderly family member who had lost their keys and wasn't keen on anyone coming in. Wayne was respectful, professional, friendly and dealt with it all with a light humour and kind demeanor. Great service, would highly recommend.

    Highly recommended.

    Posted 23 September

    Submitted request with Checkatrade on the Saturday, received a reply from this company on the Sunday and the job was completed Monday morning even though it wasn’t an emergency. I would highly recommend Lock Solutions. New lock fitted and the closing mechanism adjusted so that now the door closes and locks better than it has ever done. Wayne was prompt, polite and professional and it was a pleasure to meet a true gentleman.

    Quick & Professional - Highly Recommended!

    Posted 02 September

    Wayne was very polite and professional on our first initial call; he even gave advice free of charge to get us out of our immediate issue. He then came out as promised the next day and provide a fast, efficient, professional and cost effective service to resolve our issue. Highly recommended!

    Wayne was professional, friendly, and efficient. He resolved the issue quickly and made the whole process stress-free. I’ll definitely call him again if I ever have a lock issue.

We also work with all the major brands like Yale, Union, Chubb etc and can come to you no matter how big or small the job is, the main thing is that you're secure again that day.
