What Our Customers Say

Locked out near Banbury Cross with a cake for mum's birthday melting in the sun. He arrived in about 20 minutes, opened the door without a mark and the cake made the party. Hero.

Charlotte V. Emergency lockout
Our Longford Park new-build came with basic cylinders, so we upgraded the lot to 3-star anti-snap. Keyed alike, explained clearly, done in an hour. Excellent job.

Tom D. Lock change
uPVC door in Grimsbury dropped and refused to lock. Engineer realigned it and replaced the worn gearbox in under an hour. £110 with the part — sorted properly.

Karen B. uPVC door repair
Break-in through the back door in Easington while we were at work. They secured it that evening, fitted stronger locks next morning and checked all the windows. Kind and thorough.

Martin H. Burglary repair
Key snapped in the lock on Bretch Hill before the school run. Out within 45 minutes, broken key extracted and a new cylinder fitted for £99. Quick, friendly, tidy.
