Great work that saved us money

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.

Front door handle broke and with in 15 minutes of making a call to the office someone arrived at my house to access the repairs. A new lock had to be sourced and the replacement lock was installed the next day.

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.

I would highly recommend this firm. I rang at 8.30am and they were polite and explained what might be wrong with my door handle - which needed a lot of force to open it. They said they would ring me back once they were in the office - which they did. They came that afternoon and fixed the problem within 20 minutes. Everyone was so polite, friendly and explained why the problem had occurred. I will definitely use them again if I have problems with any other door or lock.

Lock Assist cannot be faulted. They responded almost immediately to our request for work. Karl was friendly and super efficient. He diagnosed the problem with our front door lock and it was all fixed in under 30 minutes. A very rare standard of service these days. We will certainly use them again if needed and will recommend to friends. Many thanks.

Following the failure of a component in the handle on our back door I was unable to lock or even shut it. I called Paul who answered after about two rings, tried to diagnose and fix the issue over the phone, or at least get it closed and locked so we could avoid having to pay an emergency call out charge. When this proved impossible, he came round within half an hour, fixed the issue, adjusted the door to avoid it happening again and cleared up after himself. Plus he was a lovely chap. 100% recommended.

This was an emergency call-out when my key wouldn't work in the front door and I found myself locked out. Lock Assist attended within 30 minutes. The service was quick, friendly and efficient. The internal workings of the lock were replaced and, best of all, the parts needed were in the van so the job could be done straight away. Very good service.
