Despite many imponderables on my side as to time and requirements, Paul was always willing to try and find a way to accommodate the shifting timetable. Communication was clear, with good advice and I never felt that a particular, more costly solution was being advocated - wonderfully refreshing! Work completed as promised and on time at a reasonable price. Five star, friendly and professional service.

Excellent service from Paul. He arrived as arranged and, having previously seen photos of the lock, very quickly and efficiently carried out the work. The old lock was replaced with one that gave better security, all of which was explained clearly, and Paul gave further information and advice in response to my questions. Highly recommended.

Following a theft of a bag containing, amongst other things, the house keys of my parents-in-law last night, I found Alexandra Locksmiths through Which? Trusted Traders this morning. Paul was very quick to get back to me despite being on another job at the time I called, he got round to the house and changed the lock within a couple of hours of my first call to him and was helpful, courteous, speedy and professional. The invoice was sent by return which was very efficient and so grateful to put a big tick on my to-do list for today.

Very pleased with the service. I contacted Alexandra Locksmiths on Monday, and was asked for photos of the locks needing serviced. Paul got back within a couple of hours, and gave clear advice and recommendations. He later confirmed he could attend either the next day, or in two days. I opted for the next day. All communications were clear (and that is a great bonus), and he arrived within the time he suggested. The work was done both cleanly and efficiently, but it was particularly good to meet someone expert in his craft, and able to give me both advice and also a history of one of the locks. I cannot really comment on relative cost, as I have not attempted any comparisons, I was more concerned to have reliability and competence.

I am very pleased with Paul’s prompt and excellent service. He clearly loves his job. He was friendly and patient as he explained everything he did and answered all my questions. He replaced the cylinder locks on my PVC doors. I now feel happier and more safe, whether I am at home or not. I would highly recommend Paul to all my friends.

Paul changed my locks on my front door. I called him after I was concerned someone undesirable had my keys. He was really responsive - using photos of my door to work out what we needed and giving me a reasonable quote for the work. He was really good at fitting the new lock - diligent in explaining how it worked and reassuring me that the the set-up would be effective - and leaving the place clean and tidy afterwards. He comes highly recommended.

Paul provided excellent service fitting 2 new locks on our front door as well as measuring and sourcing additional security grills. Paul was fast, reliable and courteous. He gave us a number of options and didn’t try to to push the most expensive one. He clearly takes pride in his work and left the porch area spotless. We found Paul an absolute pleasure to deal with and would not hesitate to recommend his services.

Following a situation the night before with a faulty front door RimLock, which necessitated a call to an 'extortionate' emergency locksmith, who had to drill out the lock to let me in. I looked for a locksmith on Which 'Trusted Traders' and decided to phone Alexandra Locksmiths the following morning. I did, and Paul(Locksmith) soon returned my call. I explained my situation and he asked me to send him 'inside and outside' photo's of the 'lock', which I did. Following a further brief phone call, Paul arrived punctually a short while later at the time he said he would and replaced my lock. He also 'reset' a lock on an inner door which had been partially disabled without charging me for it. Paul was friendly, professional and knowledgeable about his work. He charged a reasonable fee; and a 12 month Guarantee capped it for me. Highly Recommended!!

Hello, thank you for leaving me a 5 star review, I do appreciate it. I am so sorry you got taken advantage of by a so called locksmith who treated you the way he did and made you feel insecure in your home and I’m glad I could reassure you that not all locksmiths are the same. This is why it’s so important to always check any tradesmen’s credentials before booking one. Regards Paul
