Unfortunately we had our back door broken in, we rang Kevin who was with us, very promptly. Kevin is really friendly and with no fuss, replaced the lock and gave great advice on how to make the door more secure. I would definitely recommend Kevin to family and friends.

I emailed Kevin late on Saturday about the gearbox failing on our French doors. He called me on Sunday and attended in the afternoon, and fitted a new gearbox, tested and adjusted the lock and door. Kevin was easy to deal with and did a quick, clean job. We're very happy with him and his work and will use him again.

I lost the key to my shed with my tools. I called Fort Locks on Saturday afternoon, Kevin came out the next day, Sunday, at exactly the promised time. Cut the bolt with an angle grinder without damaging the shed, removed the lock and replaced it with one of the same size from his van. Whole job done efficiently and professionally in minutes. I've made sure I've kept his phone number for future use!

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.

Fantastic lock fixing service for 2 snapped keys

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.
