Prompt response to my inquiry, had a look came back a few days later with the correct replacement and fitted it. Everything exactly how you would want it, and I consider the price to be fair.

Our patio door locking system broke and it was not possible to lock the door. I wrote an email to Lock Solutions quite late in the evening before going to bed, and to my surprise i noticed the next morning that Wayne had answered almost right away, even though it was so late. I explained the issue the next morning, and in less than 2 hours he came and fixed the problem. It was a pleasure to talk with Wayne while he was fixing the problem; he did very professional work and was quick. I would recommend him 100% if you need to fix door issues.

I contacted Lock Solutions as my local locksmith when I accidentally locked myself out. The response was immediate & we then agreed on a time to visit despite it being a Friday night. Lock Solutions then clearly explained what would happen next via phone and text. He arrived and was both polite and professional, resolving my issue - great to have a trusted local locksmith. Would use again if I have other lock issues or lock myself out!

Needed a new front door lock after my keys had broken. Wayne arrived the same day and fitted a temporary lock for me while he ordered the type I wanted. He returned promptly once the new one arrived and offered me a choice of door knobs. Highly recommend. Very friendly and great communication.

Nearly made a very big error by using another company. Fortunately, I got hold of Wayne who had actually been recommended by friends. He came out and, without any fuss or bother, got us back into our home. We live on the outskirts of Maidenhead. He had a job to finish, but he was with us within 40 mins. Our dog had pulled the night catch down from the inside so even though I had the key I couldn’t get in. Wayne had the correct tools for the job and had the door open in 5 mins. He is also a thoroughly decent chap, trustworthy and worth the cost of calling him out.

Wayne came to change all of our locks following a recent property purchase. He asked pertinent questions in advance to ensure he had everything he needed, he was flexible with times, and he was fast and professional once he arrived. I would recommend him and will use him again in the future.

Wayne came and helped me out on Christmas Eve! He has a great attitude and was able to fix what another locksmith could not. He also adjusted the door hinges to make it close smoother! He came out to Chineham, Basingstoke with about an hours notice! Recommend him highly, as he is trust worthy and honest!

Wayne came out at short notice to fix locks for a vulnerable family member who had lost the keys. He was super respectful of the domestic situation and approached the job with efficiency and a gentle humour. He had also brought a key lock safe which I had mentioned and helped install it. Totally professional, lovely chap, would recommend in a heartbeat.
