Front door wouldn’t engage lock, phoned Fort Locks and they were at my door within 2 hours. He removed the lock and the strip that goes down the door, no messing about to get parts etc, as he has a large van with all the parts, and the job was done in about 15 minutes. Very friendly guy. Can’t really get anymore reliable. Thank you.

I contacted Kevin at Fort Locks to help with 2 locks with snapped keys in my flat. He called me straight away to discuss the issue and we booked in a slot for him to attend a few days later. He sorted our snapped key problem in a matter of minutes and even sorted out our sticky front door on the way out for free! He was knowledgeable and friendly, I would recommend him to everyone with a lock issue for sure.

Kevin came at the agreed time and was very upfront about the potential cost and possible issues I might have with my particular lock (which ended up being the case). He fixed the issue quickly and explained everything clearly. Zero complaints, I'll be recommending him for sure.

Kevin fitted a new locking mechanism to my front door, and also realigned it. He attended soon after my call, and did a very professional job, going above and beyond, all for a reasonable price. Wouldn't hesitate to use again.

Mechanism for our front door failed. Kevin came out first thing in the morning, advised when he was on his way and was helpful and professional. Would definitely use him again.

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!
