You can trust Smith’s

I arrived back in London at 10 pm last night to realise I didn’t have the key to one of the locks on my front door. I first rang a company that quoted £49 (scammers that have a very genuine looking website! Watch out for them!). On reading the reviews of the scammers while sat outside my front porch, luggage in hand, on my own, with 3% phone battery left, I was very shaken and frankly felt very vulnerable; reviews on Trust Pilot mentioned the £49 guys were menacing and aggressive, with reports of people being threatened and charged £1000+ to drill through and essentially break entire doors down. I decided to cancel the call out with the scammers immediately and rang Smith’s Lock Services. Tyler got to me within 15 mins of making the online payment. I think he could tell I was nervous…

Tyler was excellent: very reassuring, advised that we should try getting into my property through an alternative door as the door I was locked out of was a deadbolt and therefore very tricky. He identified my best way in (via different door). He was patient and talked me through what he was doing / methods he was trying, plus what tools he was using. He tested the lock both internally and externally after he finished unlocking the door, waited for me to check I could get my front door open from the inside and stood outside with his torch until he was assured I was indoors safe, with all my doors locked, before driving away. Proper hero! And I was very happy to pay what I did.

Quality, trustworthy service - especially with things like doorlocks/security, and for women on their own - is rare to come by. And I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Smith’s if you’re ever in a sticky situation.

Thank you ever so much!

Good service and honest people

I got alignment problems with a few doors in my house. The doors are old and it turns out they required a lot more time and efforts than expected, but in the end the gentleman fixed them, and did not charge any extra time. I am a very satisfied customer!

Locked out of house and keys trapped inside.

We live in Belmont village near Sutton. On the early hours of 3rd Feb 2024, we accidently closed our flat door leaving the keys inside, as a result, we were locked out. One of our local friend shared Taylor Smith number (part of Smiths Lock Services team) who reposonded to our call, enquired about type of lock, door and requested to share the pics. This helped him to assess the level of challenge.

And he arrived to the location in 15 mins. Upon arrival, first thing he did was the full verification (asked for proof of address / photo id) to make sure we genuinely live in the property.

He managed to opened the door in less than a min without any damage to the door and lock. And the charging was reasonable too for such emergency service.

Pure professionalism, trustable service and highly recommendable for property related lock services.

I have used this company before for a problem with a door lock in another property. I saved their number as I was impressed with their prompt response and professionalism. I have since moved to a new property and needed to change both front and back door locks. I called this afternoon and they arrived 30 minutes later! Both locks changed in a very short time! Clearly they are very knowledgeable and as prompt and professional as before. Hopefully I won’t need locksmith services for a while now but their number is still saved if I do! Highly recommended

Highly Professional, Friendly & Trustworthy Company

I Would like to say a BIG Thank you to
Tyler, for changing Scott's locks. Scott rang Smiths Lock & Glazing Services to arrange a time for the same day. They were so nice and understanding on the phone call. Smiths Lock & Glazing Services are Very friendly, we felt comfortable and knew we could trust Tyler instantly, on his arrival, at our property. A highly professional company. You have done an amazing job! I would highly recommend this company.

My partners Van was stolen with his Carpet Cleaning Machines, lot's of other items, including his front door keys! So he had to have his locks changed, I can relax properly now, with our secure new lock and key, we are Feeling Nice and Safe Again!
Thank You, Tyler
Very Friendly, Highly Professional, Extremely Clean & Tidy.
A Great Job Well done! I would most certainly use this company again and have also recommended them to friends & family members.

Saved the day

I have to say the guys were amazing. I called this morning as tried to unlock my front door and really struggled as the lock broke. They were here within a couple of hours and replaced the lock with an upgraded one. They were concerned for my safety being in a 2nd floor flat and my only exit point needing a key. The replacement lock would now allow us to get out unhindered in the event of an emergency. Would not hesitate to recommend on all fronts. Exceptional service, price and knowledge from these guys.

Thank you very much Mrs Lawrance, despite the water sodden doors we manage to fit 7 new rack bolts from scratch perfectly, your two set of French doors are now fully secured.

Good company & great service!

Good company, professional, efficient and informative. Had a lot of patience with me and my lock replacement needs with the issues involved they really helped me figure the best thing to do and what locks etc would be best. Constant updates throughout the process, even before they started work as I was away when the work was required. I would use them again without hesitation and highly recommend them. I wish all companies took the care and consideration over their work as Smith’s do.

Replacement Yale Lock

The Yale lock on my front door broke and for security I needed it replaced asap. Smithslock Services were recommended via a local social media site. Justin asked a few questions about the type of lock I had and was able to confirm that he had one to hand and could be with me within 30 minutes. He was very polite and professional. The lock was replaced quickly at a reasonable price. Highly recommend this company.
