About

Paul started Lock Assist in 2003 after working as a master locksmith for over 20 years. 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. So whether it's a lock or a door closer to be fitted, maybe a safe to supply or just a key to cut, you're in safe hands.

Sorted out problems with Upvc doors which were not shutting correctly and made replacement keys for a long lost safe key and an old cabinet. Excellent service and great attention to detail. Would strongly recommend.

Paul comes across as hugely enthusiastic about what he does as well as extremely professional. Quoted two prices, based on potential difficulty, and then charged less than either of the quotes as the job proved a little more straightforward than anticipated. Very strongly recommended.

Brilliant from quote to completion of job. Can't express enough how easy and professional this service was. I had struggled to find any business that would secure my sash window for me and had a couple of failed tries. Lock Assist LTD assessed and fixed my problem promptly, with minimum of fuss and with a pleasant attitude. I am so relieved to have secured my window for good! I will definitely use again if required. Highly recommended.

Sash windows and their locks are a bit 'old school' and not everyone is familiar with them but we have been in locksmithing for over 40 years so have seen most things! Thank you for your kind review. Regards, Paul.

Three locks were faulty and Paul managed to repair two locks, replace one, and adjust a door to fit correctly - all within the original callout time allocation, so the only extra to pay was for the new lock. It was a friendly, fast and efficient service. Highly recommended.

Thank you very much for taking the time to post your kind review. We will always try to repair or adjust locks rather than replacing them - so long as we are confident they will be reliable. Regards, Paul.

This is the second time I have had to use them. They arrived when they said they would. They repaired my patio door and even took my utility room door handle away to remake the spring. I can not praise this company highly enough. This is a company I trust and would endorse to friends and family if they needed a locksmith.

Replaced front door lock that was on the way out

Lockassist were fast and efficient in replacing our front door lock system that was on the way out as it was jamming. They came out to remove the faulty lock so it didn't jam whilst parts were ordered and then swapped it out the following day. All done within 4 days of initial contact. Can't recommend them enough.

Thank you for posting your kind review. If we feel feel something is not quite right with the old lock and it's likely to fail, we will always fit a temporary replacement to ensure you don't end up locked in or out! Regards, Paul.
Generous attitude
I saw the Lock Assist van parked up the road in my close, & thought to ask them for advise as they were leaving.. I was a bit concerned about my front door lock & thought it might need changing.. After a brief chat, The guy (Paul?) came to my door & took a look. He asked about how it functions & informed me that with a simple adjustment it could work better..on noticing my bewildered look he went back to the van & came back with a tool, took off the lock, and did the adjustment. I was very grateful & asked hime to send me an invoice which he waved off & said to just leave a revue on Trusted Trader.. Which I now have. Like the feel of this guy, very honest & straightforward, & will be my goto when looking at lock issues in the future ... I don't hesitate to recommend ... Many Thanks John Perry

Hi John, thank you very much for your great review! Sometimes, it just makes sense to fit us to do the job for you if it’s straightforward for us but maybe not so straightforward for the customer. Kind regards, Paul.

We contacted Lock Assist on Tuesday, 18th, had a call back from Paul almost immediately and fixed up to have a new lock fitted the next day. On schedule, Mark turned up, assessed the work needed and carried it out most efficiently. Further, he was able to look at another issue we had with a lock and, again, resolved the issue. The personnel we dealt with at Lock Assist were extremely helpful, most efficient and we would certainly recommend them and use them for our security needs in the future.
