“We used Dave for the first time today as we locked ourselves out. He responded and arrived quickly (especially considering it is a Sunday), was super lovely and is very reasonably priced. Would certainly recommend him!”

Helen.

Chingford, E4 — Emergency Lockout

“Another happy recommendation for our local locksmith, Dave. We have used him a couple of times, once for general lock update and another for emergency call out. Both times he was v efficient and reliable and his rates are v reasonable! I recommend you keep his details close! M.”

Margaret Almond.

Walthamstow, E17 — Lock Changes

“I found Dave by doing a local Google search of locksmiths and rang him and booked him in. He was friendly and his prices very competitive. His work on my lock was so professional that it is now silent and smooth shutting. He went above and beyond by fixing another lock that is now quiet and smooth. We're very happy with his work and would not hesitate to recommend him..”

Sheridan Vickers.

Highams Park, E4 — uPVC Door Locks

“We wanted to replace our front door lock and Dave advised us about the best model and then came and installed it, promptly. His work was exemplary – he checked with us what he was going to do, and everything was left clean and tidy. Highly recommended.”

Nicholas Graham Smith.

Woodford, IG8 — Home Security Upgrade

“Dave did a great job changing my locks on my front door. I wanted two more mortise keys but wasn’t able to get them cut elsewhere, so Dave came back with a new lock and 4 new mortise keys, and didn’t charge for this. Professional, friendly service, helpful advice and good value for money. Thanks a lot Dave!”
