Dan recently replaced the gearbox on our back conservatory door as we were unable to use it. Today he replaced the gearbox on our composite door, which turned out to be more complicated than anticipated - Dan was patient, skilled & knowledgeable enough to rectify the problem. Dan is always punctual & professional. I have recommended him to many since he first came out to us. I would 100% recommend his services to anyone." > — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) ## Trades Locksmith ## Independent verification _What MyTrustedTraders independently checked for this business (verified items only):_ - Review volume: MTT is showing 41 public reviews on this profile.
