Very straightforward. Called around 1 pm, explained that our front door wouldn't latch unless we pushed it hard. Locksmith came later that afternoon, adjusted a few things and fixed it. No new lock... See more

Andrew did a tremendous job
Andrew performed exceptionally well, demonstrating a high level of professionalism and care. For locksmith services, please do not hesitate to contact him.
Don’t use this locksmith
The locksmith refused to unlock door, claiming that the whole lock needed to be replaced. Then tried to charge us 3x the price of the fee listed on the website (more than £300!) for a very standard door. The locksmith felt very scammy and tried to pressure us when we were not happy about the price. Then he wouldn’t leave until we paid him a significant call-out fee. I suppose he felt he could take advantage of us being locked out on a 30+ degree hot summer day. Back inside now - and very glad I didn’t get pressured into his scam. Wish I had have advocated for myself more though - I regret being pressured into paying him anything to leave my house.
If in the tower hamlets area, I would recommend using E14 Locksmith Tower Hamlets. They were quick, cheap, professional, and not scammy.

I honestly couldn’t be happier with the service! John is friendly, professional, and got straight to work. He was incredibly quick and efficient, but never rushed the job. What I really appreciated was that he explained everything he was doing along the way, so I knew exactly what was happening and felt completely at ease.
The whole experience was stress-free, and the results were perfect. It’s so refreshing to find someone who genuinely cares about doing a great job and providing excellent customer service. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again and will definitely be recommending him to family and friends.
We had an issue with a bedroom lock then our front door. Both work perfectly like new.
Thanks again for such fantastic service!
I wasn't even at the property
I wasn't even at the property. My tenant called saying that there was an issue with the lock, so I arranged everything over the phone. The locksmith kept both of us updated and sent me the invoice afterwards and I was able to pay online. Saved me driving across London for something that was sorted in one visit.
waited 2 hrs to be charged £200 to drill holes into a basic lock
Quoted £75, then charged £200 to drill 3 holes into a lock. My lock was quite basic and they didn't seem to have much equipment beyond a laminate card and a drill. Also took them 2 hours to see me- locksmith left before trying to access the building/find me, apparently operator took my number down wrong (despite repeating >4 times), second operator also declined to give me an estimated time of arrival which is why I waited almost 2 hrs before recontacting them. Better to try other locksmith companies, might even be quicker and cheaper just to buy your own drill and just wreck your own lock as this seems to be their definitive solution.
Very helpful and kind person.

AVOID AVOID AVOID
Unfortunately, my experience with the company’s customer service fell short of expectations.
I was initially quoted from £75 for entry, but once the technician arrived, I was told it would be £139 to drill the lock and then a further £85 for a replacement lock, bringing the total to £268. I completely understand that the final cost can vary depending on the type of lock, but this wasn’t explained clearly beforehand, so the increase came as an unexpected surprise.
What disappointed me most was the communication from the office. When I expressed that the price seemed quite steep, there was no acknowledgement of my concern or any explanation beyond “it depends on what lock it is.” I then asked if I could simply pay for the entry and arrange for another locksmith to replace the lock, but I was told to “deal with the technician” despite the technician himself advising me to contact the office. As a customer, I felt I was being passed between the office and the technician instead of someone taking ownership of my query.
I do want to make it clear that this is not a reflection on the technician. He was polite, professional, tidy, and completed the work to a high standard. My review is directed solely at the company’s communication and lack of transparency around pricing. A little more empathy and clearer explanations would have made a stressful situation much easier.
John the engineer was brilliant
John the engineer was brilliant, clear in explaining what was wrong with the lock. And options to remediate it. Worked quietly and professionally. Really impressed.
Very quick and sorted the lock
Friendly quick efficient but waaay over priced
The guy was friendly and arrived quick but it cost me £300 he did explain what he needed to do and of course I didn’t have a standard lock and so this was £129 not £75, but that’s ok then it was £40 labour I thought the £129 was part of the labour as all he did was drill a hole through my lock and it came off, anyway I had to get a new lock and the whole thing cost me £300. I was gutted as it only took 10minutes and the vat didn’t help either. They were good and efficient but the cost was extreme but I guess they can exploit the fact that your desperate to get in your house

Had a locksmith booked regarding a rental property in North London after the tenant problems with the lock.
The issue was dealt with quickly and I was kept updated throughout the process.
I wasn’t able to pay in person, so a payment link was sent over which made everything very convenient. Smooth experience all around.
Professional and friendly
John was professional, friendly and efficient.

Gigi was at my property within 30 mins of me calling. After looking at my door he thought it would be a tough entry having to damage the lock. As I wasn’t happy with damaging the lock he tried another method which didn’t involve damaging the lock and within a few attempts he had prized the door open! I was over the moon and would highly recommend Gigi if you’re ever in need of a locksmith

I needed my locks replaced after I lost my keys. The whole process was straightforward and done on the same day.
dishonest scammers
dishonest scammers, avoid at all costs. They quote £90-120 on the phone inclusive of labour and call out fee. They arrived and told me it required a high security lock, £200+, and labour chagre (because the high secuirty lock 'takes longer' - he was there 20 mins max). Did not tell me the total cost and whacked on VAT (not previously mentioned that was additional). Ended up being £340, and locksmith became hostile when I queried this. Avoid like the plague
