Highlights
"No sooner had I posted job I received a phone call minutes later. Very polite,well mannered. Asked if I required the same evening but I said next day was fine. He said someone would be out between 9 and 10 am. True to their word received a txt saying they would be at my house by 9.15am. I had to leave but my husband was home he said they were very professional,polite and quickly did the job. Gave us 5 new keys too for a very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend this company."
"Within minutes of me posting my job request I received a call from Forth Lock and Security and he managed to attend very quickly at an agreed time. Entire lock mechanism had to be replaced. It was very old indeed as it turns out. Will use their services again as the front door lock is on it's way out!"
