Great service from Ricardo at Banham

Just had Ricardo out to fix my doorlock and he was fantastic.Polite, professional and courteous, he quickly assessed the problem and offered me the alternatives – whether to get him to fix the lock or to bring in an alternative supplier to fix the door. He fixed the problem himself and his work was very neat and tidy. Looks like I won't need him back for another 25 years! Great service from the team at Banham

We're delighted to hear that Ricardo provided such excellent service. His professionalism, clear communication, and attention to detail are qualities we take great pride in, and it's fantastic to know he was able to quickly assess the issue, explain the available options, and carry out a neat and effective repair.

We'll be sure to pass your kind comments on to Ricardo. It's especially rewarding to hear that the repair was completed to such a high standard.

Thank you again for choosing Banham. We truly appreciate your feedback and look forward to being of assistance whenever you need us in the future.

No one turned up for my maintenance…

No one turned up for my maintenance visit and no one called in advance to cancel. I wasted half a day waiting in for them. It’s the third time I’ve had scheduled service appointments cancelled with little or no notice. While the engineers themselves are great, the office support and booking process seems to be chaotic.

Two failed key-cutting attempts, ignored complaint, no follow-through

EDIT: John went out of his way to make this right, so I appreciate that.

I took 6 keys to the Banham Golders Green branch to be cut. When I collected them, 5 of the 6 were cut incorrectly and didn't work. I went back a week later to have them redone, then the replacements were also cut incorrectly, meaning two separate visits and the same failure both times.
What makes this worse is that Banham keys can only be cut by Banham, customers have no alternative supplier to go to. When a company holds that kind of exclusivity, it feels like a basic obligation to actually get the job done correctly. Instead, I've paid for a service that has failed twice, with no fix and no refund. It's hard not to feel like you're stuck paying for something they simply can't deliver.
I submitted a formal written complaint asking Banham to collect the originals from my home, correctly cut the keys, and issue a refund given the service had failed twice. I never received a reply. I then called the Golders Green branch directly, where I was told someone would be sent to collect the keys and resolve it. No one came, and I've had no further contact since.
I urgently need these keys for contractor access, and this has caused real delays because of Banham's repeated errors and lack of response. For a security company, this level of unaccountability is genuinely concerning. I'd think carefully before ever getting Banham locks. There are a total of 5 Banham locks on this property, one just expects a level of service from such an expensive and renowned brand.

Thank you for taking the time to update your review.

We're very sorry for the frustration and inconvenience caused by the repeated issues with your key cutting, as well as the lack of communication you experienced while trying to get the matter resolved. We appreciate how important it was for you to have working keys available for contractor access, and we understand the disappointment caused by the delays and the need for multiple visits.

We are pleased that John was able to intervene and work with you to put things right. Your feedback has been shared with the relevant teams, as the level of service you described falls short of the standards we aim to provide. We also recognise your concerns regarding the handling of your complaint and the follow-up arrangements that were not carried out as promised.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention and for updating your review to reflect the outcome. We value your longstanding trust in Banham and the opportunity to resolve this matter.

Kind regards,
