We are an Approved Company of the Master Locksmiths Association so if you need expert advice and help from time served, experienced locksmiths who know how to pick locks open if you're locked out, we are the ones to call, 24 hours a day.

Tricky locks? Difficult doors? Catchy keys? If your locks and doors start playing up and they're getting really difficult to use - maybe the key's stiff to turn or the door's not closing properly - it's always best to get the problem resolved before it gets worse.

But you needn't despair. We sort out these sorts of problems daily and with the minimum of fuss and delay. In fact, we're so sure in our abilities, we even give our customers a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. How's that for peace of mind? And that's not just if you're locked out, it's with all our work.

Can’t praise the company enough. My elderly mother locked herself out, a neighbour recommended Lock Assist Ltd, they came immediately, sorted out the problem and made sure it couldn’t happen again. They upgraded and serviced the lock for a very reasonable cost. They were even good enough to trust my mother to allow me to pay them the next day. A great company and superb service. Many thanks indeed! Customer in West Sussex

Local company to me and came out within 30 minutes having sent photos of the door to them, he had identified the part likely to be needed and thankfully it was so door system replaced and also poorly fitting door adjusted. Very pleasant and efficient service would highly recommend

Had a problem with a couple of doors in the house and, after checking the reviews on Which, decided to book Lock Assist and very glad I did. Carl was a true professional from start to finish and managed to resolve both problems for us! Seriously, it's been a very long time since I've experienced such superb customer service - highly recommend and the price was very reasonable for the work undertaken. Huge thanks!

Cannot recommend highly enough, friendly, helpful staff that managed to get a lock smith out to me within 10minutes and even managed to still make it to my afternoon meeting. Really lovely staff, friendly, helpful and approachable.

Anyone who is locked out always jumps to the top of the queue, especially if with young children or elderly or raining! regards, Paul.

We thought that we needed to break the locking mechanism on a door that we had not been able to open in some time. Paul was able to open the door and reset the mechanism in order that we can use the door going forward. He also recommended further work in order to make the door more draught proof. Paul's work was a great help and saved us buying a new locking mechanism. We would thoroughly recommend.

I called Lock Assist out of hours to unlock our fairly new door after leaving the key on the inside. This was done promptly, with excellent communication and professionalism. A change of lock with an internal knob was suggested to prevent this happening again but with no hard sell and I did proceed with this change. Pricing was very clear throughout, I very much trusted the process and the company because of the clarity and approach prior to and on arrival to our home. Thank you very much, it was a really positive experience.

Having found I was unable to get in my house recently, I found Lock Assist's details mentioned on a local Facebook page, I rang them and fifteen minutes later they arrived, found the problem and got me inside. Excellent service!

Had problems with our patio door. Lock Assist came and sorted the situation out - I’d thought we might even need a new door (at massive expense I’m sure) but problem was sorted out and at a very reasonable cost. The two chaps who came were helpful and friendly, explained what was needed and dealt with issue. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Faultless, efficient service, and so friendly. How refreshing it is to find a company that gives the most impeccable service, like in the old days, before complacency set in!!! A door handle came off in my hand due to a ‘spring’ breaking in the mechanism. Within 24 hours of phoning, my door was fixed. I was honestly quite overwhelmed with the high level of service I received, as this certainly isn’t the case with other companies I’ve called over the years. I honestly cannot recommend this company enough, professionalism at its best.
