Excellent service from Chris and his colleague! Called on a Sunday as an emergency as my lock had seized and I couldn’t get in. Managed to get in but booked an appointment for Monday instead. They arrived in the morning, on time, and job was sorted within the hour. All work areas tidied up before they left. Advised on best locks to replace with, but no pressure to up-sell at all. Advised that basic one for my front door would be fine, saving me money too. Very reliable and trustworthy. Price was very reasonable and less than expected. Will definitely call him again if needed.

These guys are great, I have used them before. Rang them close to midday by mid afternoon I had a call to say they were on their way. I needed a new garage door lock, I got stuck in traffic they got there before me and started work. Fast efficient and friendly guys who I feel confident would never do any work that wasn't necessary, or overcharge you. He gave 10% discount as I'd used him before. I'd recommend them every time.

I rang Chris on Saturday to explain that my garage door lock was being temperamental and I was worried I could be locked out of my garage. As it wasn't an emergency he said it would be cheaper to wait until Monday to fix it, which I appreciated. We agreed a time and he rang to tell me when he was on his way. He had confirmed the price beforehand and gave me a ten percent discount as I had been a customer previously. He and his assistant were very pleasant and efficient in changing the lock and even oiled the springs which lift the up and over door. Splendid service!

I rang Lock Around The Clock and was very pleased that they could visit my property the same afternoon. They arrived when they said they would. We discussed the choice of locks and I selected the one I wanted. They then fitted this extremely quickly and then cut some additional keys that I wanted. They were both very polite and friendly.

Service, re-align and repair 2 main door locks Time of arrival and costing issued in advance and adhered to. The 2 man team were both very polite, articulate, with a nice sense of humour and excellent attitude. Clearly explained the work necessary, worked unobtrusively and cleaned up efficiently afterwards. We were highly impressed and would not hesitate to recommend to other potential customers.

Had a problem with the lock on the front. This had been fixed twice before by other locksmiths, which on one occasion cost a small fortune! He needlessly change parts that were not necessary. This was absolutely not the case with Chris , he explained everything that needed to be done and all the costs involved (which was nowhere near what we'd previously paid) before carrying out any work. They were quick, and even cleaned my door when they'd finished, super happy!

I had a key stuck upside down in a door. Lock around the clock were able to get to me within 2 hours. The price, fault and troubleshooting steps were all explained upfront. They left the door spotless and corrected a fault with the door rubbing the frame with out me asking them too. Would happily use them again.

I contacted Chris Cavanah to see how quickly he could replace the lock for me, plus the fact the weekend was approaching as well and I struggling to get in and out of the door. I explained the problem and he said he could come the next day. Communication was excellent and they were bang on time to carry out the replacement. Chris and his colleague were both very polite, friendly and professional and did a great job. Highly recommended and I will be using their services again if I need too.
