Excellent service

Responded to my emails very quickly, and did a great job repairing our door, and even cleared up his mess before he left, obvious but not something a lot of tradesman consider.
highly recommended!

Having this kind of person in your address book makes a difference in your life . It makes a difference to mine
for sure .!!

Excellent service

Thank you Martin for your assistance this morning. I thought I would need a locksmith to fix my jammed front door but you provided me with free advice which solved the problem. Thank you so much for saving me time and money.

Dear Martin,

This is to say a big fat THANK YOU, not only on behalf of my friend Andre, who used your services recently but also from me.

After great but long 5 weeks I was looking forward to get my place back when not even after 24 hours of receiving his new keys Andre called me in slight panic asking me for a locksmith!

Your respond was very quick, calm and professional. Within a few hours my friend called me to tell me that he is finally in and here is what he has to say for himself:

“I needed my lock changed after I had misplaced my keys. Martins pricing was excellent considering it was an emergency. I would recommend him to anyone, he was reliable and professional”.

Once again Martin, really huge thank you for your great and quick work and I have no hesitation to recommend your services to all my friends, clients and family.

Best wishes

Thanks for getting us out of trouble

I still can't understand what our visitors did to jam the lock - but it locked half the family out and half the family in!
Thanks Martin for your swift response to deal with the immediate issue.
You also highlighted that the locks on our front door were inadequate for insurance. Your advice was greatly appreciated, the service you provided was very good value and we are now proud members of the 'Blue Key Club'.

Just a phone call away...

I have used IKS Locksmiths personally and also through my business. They have always provided a speedy response and top quality work, at really reasonable prices - even for an emergency callout - they are also skilful and reliable. I would not hesitate to recommend IKS Locksmiths (and I do !)

Outstanding service!

We had a suspicion that our key had been copied by some contractors carryout works on our house so we wanted to get the locks changed quickly. We received a recommendation for Martin from IKS Locksmiths by a business colleague who rated him highly.
After speaking to Martin we felt at ease and were impressed with his knowledge of his trade and the swiftness he came out and carried out the job. He also recommended installing a Mul-T-Lock system that makes it harder for people to copy the key in the future which gave us further reassurances especially since we were having further works being carried out by other contractors.
Overall Martins service was outstanding and we have since continue using him for other lock issues including commercial works for my business. I highly recommend IKS Locksmiths to anyone who wants great service and peace of mind.

Efficient and prompt service

A member of my family had an attempted break on a late Sunday evening last winter. Thankfully the would be burglars ran off when disturbed but they damaged the front door locks. Despite being late on a Sunday, Martin at IKS Locksmith was present within a few hours and made the place safe for them. Not only was he prompt, but he was efficient in delivering the service needed and had all the tools needed to complete the job there and then. Great service....

Lock repair

My patio door had stopped shutting properly, and as a result I was unable to lock it. I called IKS Locksmiths to take a look at it for me. Martin rectified the problem for me very quickly. I also mentioned to him that there was a problem with another set of doors I had, which had previously been looked at and I was told there was nothing that could be done. Martin took a look and managed to fix that too leaving me one happy customer.
