Kevin saved my locks! I had just moved into a new house and the front door wasn’t very secure. I messaged the night before and he managed to fit me in the next day. Did a great job and was very knowledgeable. Thank you so much!

Highly recommend Kevin. Responsive and communicative, he was excellent and fixed our jammed door quickly. He was tidy and professional and went above and beyond - fixing issues we’d been having with it for years. Cost was as quoted so no surprises. Very pleased - thank you!

Quick, efficient and friendly service throughout, with the operation of the lock explained to me after it was fitted. As a bonus, while we were dealing with the paperwork afterwards, he spotted a simple way to make my French Windows more secure and am following his advice. All in all, I can’t praise these guys enough.

Highly recommend Kevin from Fort Locks. Had to call him out on Sunday morning as our front door handle broke, he came within the time frame given, and kept me updated, and extremely professional and very reasonably priced, especially on a Sunday morning. Cannot recommend him enough
