Very easy to deal with from start to finish. Chris fully understood my requirements, provided a competitive price, arranged a mutually convenient date and time to undertake the work, and arrived when he said he would. He did the work in an efficient and professional manner. Very satisfied and happy to recommend.

Found his details in my local - called and answered straight away. Informed me he was at a job but he would call when he finished and would come to me next. Did as he said - arrived , polite and completed the job. An emergency that was resolved within 10 minutes. Number has been stored for future and would recommend.

Lock Around the Clock came and fitted a new lock and supplied new keys. Service was great. They were available next working day, were really friendly and professional and provided good advice about what to install. Even adjusted a defect that was and issue before they installed the new lock for us. Would definitely recommend.

Chris Cavanagh and son came within an hour of calling them when my back door would not open. They opened the door and fitted a new screw within minutes. Very polite, very efficient and reasonably priced. I am glad I know of them in case I need them again.

I don't usually leave feedback on work done, however, on this occasion it is an absolute pleasure to do so. He and his colleague arrived on time and explained what our options were. It didn't sound like he was selling but more of these are the advantages and disadvantages, very simple. A very respectful and professional company....I would NOT hesitate recommending this company.

Chris Cavanah called today to fix a new lock on my back gate. The work was carried out very expeditiously and everything was left tidy. I would be ready to recommend his services to anyone.

Chris Cavanah and his son of Lock Around The Clock were on the scene within approximately 30 minutes of me calling to say I had locked myself out of my house. I was back in my property within a matter of minutes. The service was polite and professional, and I thought the rate for the job was very reasonable. I would not hesitate to use them again... but hopefully not for the same purpose!

Having used Trusted Traders once before both tradesmen were very efficient. Chris was the only person to return my emergency call. He telephoned to advise when he would be arriving and completed a very efficient job for me. I would strongly recommend his Company.

I locked myself and three dogs outside my son's house. I didn't know the area and had to get in to get keys before picking the children up from school. I looked on line and found Chris and rang. He was great, he reassured me he would be with me within the hour and turned up as promised. He had to replace the lock to gain entrance and then replaced it with a new one and did a clean and tidy job. I was so pleased and so relieved. The cost was very reasonable too. Highly recommended.

An excellent service from these locksmiths. Speedy response to our emergency callout - we'd locked ourselves out- & they phoned us to tell us an eta. Impressed! Very professional, friendly, helpful and very reasonable cost. I strongly recommend them.

Having been very pleased with Chris’ work previously, I rang to see if he could urgently gain access as I’d locked myself out of my boat. He gave me an ETA & arrived promptly. He gained access by replacing the lock & providing new keys plus 2 spares. He was professional & polite throughout & the cost was very reasonable. I would highly recommend Lock Around the Clock & wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

We managed to break a key in a lock. Had kept Chris’s number on my phone on his advice - you’re more likely to be locked out than locked in. Worked a treat and within an hour of phone call Chris and son had turned up and fixed the problem. Excellent service.

Selected Lock around the Clock based on high volume of positive reviews. We identified that our front door lift & lock handle was not working and therefore unable to close our front door! From our initial call at 17:30 - Chris Cavanah arrived 30 minutes later and resolved the issue. Chris was simply fantastic and very professional. Locksmith reliability is a must! Would highly recommend Chris and his company to support your requirements.

I locked myself out with the key in the lock on the inside. They kept me informed on when they would arrive. They opened the door extremely quickly, making no mess. The charge was the one quoted. The service was very professional and there is no hesitation in recommending them.

Our son required a new door lock fitted to comply with his house insurance policy, but needed us to be there when the work was done. We recommended Chris as we had used him in the past. Chris came on time, showed and explained the lock he was going to fit and confirmed it complied with the insurance requirements. He was friendly, but got on with doing the work and cleaned up after. He was able cut extra keys for us and charged the agreed price.
