Hi,
He was very nice and helpful. Saved me a potential changing a lock by cutting me a key for my shed based on his experience. Highly recommended.

Great service, very professional. Helpful advice. They even took the keys away to get extra cut and then dropped them off (This was during Covid 19 - 1 June 2020)

When I moved into my new flat Trevor came and replaced the front door locks and installed bolts and chains. All done quickly, quietly and efficiently. Advice given in the shop was great too.
