Customer complained the latch had broken.
As you can see the damage so we replaced with a new lock but transferred the levers so no need for new keys to handed out to the family.

Customer had a some worn out keys - rather than just program a whole new one we refreshed both, in new shells and cut new blades saving the customer significantly.

I wanted to give a shout out to Lewis at Colin Thompson & Sons Locksmiths as he's come to my rescue for the 2nd time!!
Once on a customer's driveway when the keys got locked inside the vehicle. Now this time with a lost set (we think they might have gone out with the bins 🙈😬).
In less than 24 hours he's been out, new remote key set up and a spare.
Super reasonable price too, I didn't have to mess around using my key cover!

Thank you, I'm sure I'll have the opportunity to use you again 🤦🏼‍♀️😅😂

Great to see that the media are picking up a story that we hear about a lot in our trade, of locksmiths taking advantage of vulnerable people.

We are upfront with our charges and proud members of the Master Locksmith Association, DBS checked and vetted.

A couple expecting to pay £50 for a locksmith say they ended up forking out more than £5,000.

VW steering lock broken. Very common fault that people mis diagnosis as the lock barrel. Removed and replaced without having to change the ignition barrel keeping the existing keys.
