Efficient and knows his stuff!
All communication with Kevin was prompt and clear from the outset. He accommodated my request without issue, clarified the job required and arrived on time to carry out work. He was friendly, smiley and knowledgeable and gave advice about a couple of other additional jobs which we told him about on the day. He kindly fitted them in too. He was quick and efficient at his job explaining the best locks needed and why. A neighbour, seeing his van, approached him too and he was amenable to taking a look at what help they needed before he left us. A trustworthy, respectful guy whom would wholeheartedly recommend.

Kevin from Fort Locks did an amazing job and I would recommend him to everyone! He was recommended to me by a family member and when I called, he answered straight away. Even though the job wasn’t urgent, he was able to recommend and order the right locks for my door, and booked me in for a couple of days after. He went above and beyond as it wasn’t the easiest job, due to existing issues with the door frame, but he took the extra time to make sure the locks were fitted perfectly. He was also very friendly, tidy and helpful. Thank you!

Kevin was excellent. Very knowledgeable, polite and helpful. He quickly resolved issues with the backdoor lock that had been broken in, advised on replacement locks, and completed all works to high standard in timeframe agreed. Very reasonable cost and aligned to initial quote. No hidden cost, I would definitely recommend Fort Locks and use again.

Kevin was fantastic, and was at my house within 20 minutes of first speaking to him. He explained what the issue was clearly, and went about fixing it, ensuring that everything was sorted before he left. He went above and beyond, all for a very reasonable price. He is also extremely friendly, and has a great level of customer service. I would absolutely recommend Fort Locks to anyone.

Lightening fast
Called Kevin to see if he could help me get in the front door. I was expecting a bit of a wait. It’s not the first time I’ve done this. Anyway. 25 minutes later, turns up and looks at the door and within seconds I was in my house with no damage to the door and the same lock intact. Can’t fault the service. I would recommend you give him a call

Will definitely use Fort Locks again in the future. Kevin was extremely efficient and timely in fixing my door lock. I sent him a message at 9am and he had contacted me back and booked me in in less than 10 minutes. He knew exactly how to fix the problem.

I had an "emergency" when my front door key broke in the lock. I was given an appointment within 1.5 hours and Mr Carloni arrived in little over one hour. A new lock and multiple keys were provided. I found it slightly difficult to use the new key - which may have been due to my own clumsiness, rather than a fault with the lock. Mr Carloni returned and promptly sorted out the problem.
