I was very pleased with the service provided by Lock around the clock. I rang them around midday on 1st November 2021 and they arrived at about 4pm. They quickly identified the reason for the french doors not opening. They fitted a new lock gearbox to the doors which they had brought with them. Both of them were polite and friendly and they left no mess.

Unable to open the conservatory door in to the garden

The staff were very courteous, helpful and professional. They were able to come to us at short notice (late on a Friday afternoon), which was much needed as we were unable to get out of the back door and the dogs need to use the garden! They came at the agreed time. They identified what was needed to be done to fix the backdoor (change the gearbox) and explained it well to us. They were very happy to fix an additional problem despite us not mentioning on beforehand. They fixed an ongoing issue we had with our temperamental front door that they identified on coming/leaving the house. Very tidy. Happy people.

Having used Lock around the Clock’s service successfully before I was glad I kept their contact number to hand. Chris answered my phone call in person late on the Friday and agreed he would attend at my property the following Monday morning (non emergency) to fix a sticking lock on a UPVC Patio door. The repair was quickly carried out to my complete satisfaction. Whatever the problem is around locks I would recommend this firm.

We called Chris as we had a problem with our bi-fold patio door, it wasn’t locking and unlocking properly. Chris always responds quickly and is very helpful, asking for photos to give him an idea of the kind of lock it was. We have used Chris twice before and he has always been friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and gets the job done. Chris arrived at the time he said he would be here and fixed the problem, doing an honest job and it’s working better than before. No hesitation in recommending Chris, honest, professional and an expert in his field.

I contacted the company as my bedroom door was locked and would not open. I was answered straight away and they made an appointment for the next day. They were great timekeepers and came on time ready and equipped to replace my lock. The work was carried out with no fuss, efficiently and courteously. They tidied up and vacuumed up the small amount of debris that was produced. The work cannot be faulted and their manner was helpful and professional.

Having locked my keys in the house, I called on a neighbour who invited me in and allowed me to use her laptop to find a locksmith. I phoned Lock Around the Clock who estimated they would be with me in about an hour. 45 minutes later they called to say they would be another half hour, and they turned up within 25 minutes. They managed to open my door very quickly causing no damage and actually charged me less than they had indicated on the phone. They were polite and friendly. I would certainly use them again.

Elderly parents kept leaving key on inside front door lock which prevented other key holders from unlocking the door from the outside. Contacted Chris who said he could fit a knob to lock the door on the inside so that the front door could still be unlocked from the outside with a key. Chris' quote was 50% cheaper than others I had obtained and the standard of workmanship was top class.

I have used lock around the clock 2 or 3 times. Each time, easy to arrange visit, kept me informed when they would arrive on the day, listened to me about problem, tested if it was the real problem, confirmed problem and proposed solution cost. I approved solution & cost - they did it - I paid - everyone happy with result. Will call them next time I need lock smith. Ps even gave me extra key as copy that works was not to the locksmith’s quality.
