Reviews

What Croydon customers say

Rated 5.0 out of 5 from38 reviews on Google.

Locked out at 11pm with my little one. Answered straight away, arrived in about 25 minutes and had the door open without any damage. Calm and reassuring the whole time.
Sarah M.South Croydon · Emergency lockout
Came to change the locks after we moved in. Explained exactly what my insurance needed, fitted anti-snap cylinders and keyed the front and back doors to one key. Fair price, no surprises.
David P.Purley · Lock upgrade
Our front door had stopped locking properly. I expected to need a whole new door but he replaced the mechanism the same afternoon for a fraction of the cost.
Aisha R.Beckenham · uPVC door repair
Sorted a master key system for our office so staff only get into their own areas. Professional job and great to have a locksmith we can call any time.
Mark T.Bromley · Commercial
Came out the morning after an attempted break-in, secured everything, upgraded the locks and gave me a clear invoice for the insurance. Took a lot of stress away.
Joanne H.Caterham · Burglary repair
Snapped my key in the lock before work. He was there within the hour, got the broken piece out and cut me new keys. Honest and upfront about the cost.
