"I phoned Danny yesterday afternoon and he came round this morning. There and then he realigned my front door latch lock and solved my issues. I was worried i'd need a new door or at least a new lock. We've also had the key snap in our back gate which Danny got out instead of flogging us a new lock. For both these jobs he only charged us £20! Fab. Finally, Danny was super nice to my dog. Wouldn't hesitate to contact him again in future! Thank you."

"Danny clearly has extensive experience and knowledge of locks and doors and that he takes great pride in doing a job well is obvious. He sorted out the backdoor of a rental property that was locked shut with no movement in the lock calmly and systematically overcoming each obstacle as it presented leaving the door fully working and correctly adjusted. Thank you ??"

Locksmithing isn't government-regulated in the UK, so anyone can trade as one. The Master Locksmiths Association vets, inspects and background-checks its members - a useful extra assurance for this trade.

Find an MLA-approved locksmith
Get the call-out fee AND the total price agreed in writing before they set off — emergency locksmith overcharging is a common complaint.
Be wary of anyone who insists on drilling the lock straight away: most locks can be picked open, and drilling then selling a replacement is a known upsell.
Look for a locksmith approved by the Master Locksmiths Association — the MLA vets and inspects its members, and locksmithing is otherwise unregulated.
