Fantastic service, brilliant locksmith!
Chris and George came to our house and fitted a replacement garage door lock. We called in the morning and they arrived in the afternoon. Chris explained what the job would be and how long it would take and provided an estimate. The work was carried out quickly, to a very high standard. They were clean and tidy and very polite. I feel really lucky we were given Chris’s number, I would highly recommend Chris if you need any locks replacing for any reason. 5 Stars! Brilliant Service and a really nice guy! Thanks.

Chris called ahead and arrived on time, within an hour of me phoning. Our bedroom door handle was stuck closed. It turned out to be a more difficult job than it looked. After trying usual methods, Chris had to drill it out and cut some door trim. He got it open, replaced parts, and made good the woodwork and cleaned up. He was friendly, polite, and explained what he was doing. His bill was as he quoted. Would definitely recommend him.

Chris and his apprentice arrived at the agreed time to sort out a faulty front door handle which meant the door could not be opened from the outside. They quickly determined the fault and were able to replace the part at the same time. Both Chris and his son were courteous and friendly whilst still being very professional. I will definitely use them again should the need arise and would recommend them to others.

Needed Chris’ help again after a Yale door latch snapped off in my son‘s hand, just wear and tear but it meant we couldn’t lock our inner front porch door. Chris came within an hour of calling on a Saturday morning and immediately replaced the latch. He also replaced another lock and cut additional keys that we needed doing. Very friendly, competent and can do attitude. Had used previously a couple of years ago for other door locks. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again or recommend. Many thanks Chris.

I contacted Chris about a replacement window lock and some general repairs that we needed on a few window lock handles. He was prompt in providing availability for the job. He offered to come on the day but we chose the following working day. He came on time for the job and was assisted by his son. Both were professional and were wearing face-masks to minimise any potential risks regarding Covid-19. The job was completed efficiently and they checked other window locks for damage and provided maintenance on any requiring it. We were also offered advice on various locks, which showed honesty and helpfulness. I would recommend this company and would use them again if required.

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.

Needed a locksmith urgently to replace UPC front door locking arrangement as old had seized. Responded quickly to this call even although it was in the evening. Carried out replacement efficiently and effectively, price as quoted. Courteous manner, would definitely use again.

Our UPVc front door lock was failing , with part of a spring emerging behind the handle/lock assembly. We called Lock Around The Clock, and Chris agreed to visit later that day. He arrived shortly afterwards, and assured us that the lock and key mechanisms were in good order. He tried to reassemble the handle components, but it proved necessary to fully replace it. It took rather longer than the hour covered by the callout charge, but Chris did not charge extra other than the cost of the new handle assembly. The lock is now working satisfactorily, and we will certainly use Chris in future should the occasion arise. We have stored his number on our mobiles just in case!

Chris attended within 3 hours of being called and quickly solved the problem with our front door lock in an efficient and professional manner. He let us know when he was on his way and advised on costs. His charge of £49 represents very good value, we would definitely use him again.

On a very stressful house moving day...and no garage key! Lock Around the Clock arrived quickly and changed the garage lock and others on the house, at my request. So impressed, took time to explain how the new locks worked and checked I was ok with opening and closing them before he left. Would definitely use again. Thank you :)

I called Chris at Lock Around The Clock as a door would not open (the cupboard contained medicines which were urgently required for the next day). He arrived before time originally arranged after phoning to see if earlier was acceptable. He carried out the job and I was really impressed, as explained all stages of work required. Great job - would recommend this company with hesitation.

Chris came the same afternoon following a lunchtime phone call. He replaced the Yale lock on my front door and cut several extra keys for me. He work quickly, tidily and was very pleasant and polite. He charged me exactly what he quoted me over the phone and I thought his charges were very reasonable. I would recommend him to other people.

I used this trader to resolve a problem with a UPVC door which I was unable to lock. They answered my call promptly and gave a generous estimate of how long it would take them to respond promising to call me with reasonable notice when they were on their way, This happened. They also advised their hourly rate (which they adhered to) giving me opportunity to decline the work if I was unhappy with it On arrival they swiftly diagnosed the problem and clearly explained the fault giving me ample opportunity to ask questions, They also advised the cost of a required replacement part before proceeding with the work The work was undertaken swiftly and efficiently and I was able to test it to ensure that I was satisfied that it had cured the fault. I was also given useful advice on how to prevent the fault from recurring. Throughout the work I was treated respectfully and I was very pleased with the service received.

Patio door wasn't locking, now fixed, along with several other odd jobs around the house which we'd lived with for years. Great service, kept us informed of costs as he went, and payment by debit card made the whole transaction lovely and smooth. He worked quickly and efficiently, and at £44 an hour we got a lot of things fixed for a reasonable price. Oh, and loved the advice to put his number in my phone rather than in the house, in case I'm locked out.

Good, tidy work
Fitted a new lock to back door. Works well. Made no mess. My other problem is an intermittent stiffness to the lock on the fairly new composite front door. Unfortunately, it was working perfectly when Chris came round. He oiled it and loosened it, so hopefully that will permanently solve the problem.

Which? Local Review
A tradesman arrived within about 20 minutes of our phone call. He correctly diagnosed the faults with our two doors, explaining that we didn't need new parts just adjustments. One one star for value for money as I feel that £44 per hour borders on extortionate.

Mother-in-law locked out of house. Phones Chris and he was with me within the house. Access gained in minutes. Very pleased to deal with.
