I've been meaning to go and get some keys cut here since moving to the area. Finally had to today, as lost my keys over the weekend. Quick, speedy service and goods - perfect. In fact Lee fixed one of the original keys and it now works perfect. Didn't even realise it was faulty until he pointed it out. Will be back for sure, the next time I lose my keys. Got a selfie to boot :-) made my day.

I engaged the company to supply and fit a new, more secure lock to the back door. They kept me informed about a delay in the previous job and the likely time of arrival, and still attended within the notified period. The work was carried out swiftly, tidily and efficiently with the minimum of disruption. I am very pleased with the result and would not hesitate to use them again

Broken patio door handle

I had a broken patio door handle which needed replacing. Lee advised me that I could replace it myself and save on the labour costs. Even though he did not stock the same handle in his shop, he went to the wholesaler and sourced it for me and advised how I could fit it. After I had fitted the handle he rang to check it was all working OK. I was very happy with the extremely high level of service provided and would highly recommend Mentor Lock Ltd.

I have rarely encountered such fantastic personnel service. Nothing was too much trouble. Our lock fitting was sourced and fitted speedily and efficiently and Lee's charges are extremely reasonable. He even came after work to check the fitting then went back to the shop to cut extra keys at no cost to us. This really is going the extra mile and I wouldn't hesitate for one second in recommending Mentor.

Needed to get locks on house changed after a tenant eviction. Lee is a very genuine and decent guy - gave a ball part figure which was spot on. Just labour and the cost of the locks. No call out fee. Phoned him in the morning, job completed by the afternoon - so efficient. Very difficult to trust tradesmen these days - how wonderful to come across someone who is so genuine, approachable and honest. Would highly recommend and will use again. Thanks Lee at Mentor Locks.

Two rack bolts and a new British Standard cylinder lock fitted following an attempted break-in on glass double doors. Lee and his colleague Andy were very quick and efficient to respond to my request, to assess what was needed, and to deliver a friendly and high-quality service. I am happy to highly recommend Mentor Lock Ltd.
