Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Highlights
“My wife and I in a rush getting the buggy out of the boot of the car forgot we had left the keys in there! Well when we got back to the car we realised our mistake. Onto Google we went and found Lockturner. Steve was great! He was very quick and efficient. He was very friendly when he arrived and was great with our son who had a million and one question! He got us back in our car in no time and off we went! Would definitely call him again if needed!”
“As a locksmith myself, it’s important that when I’m unable to attend a job I need to call on someone that I know is reliable and competent. I spoke with Steve and asked if he would be able to cover a job for me in Brighton as I wasn’t able to attend. He attended the job, got the customer in her home non destructively, and all in under 30 minutes of my call. What more could I ask for!! I later called the customer to get some feedback and she said Steve was a very pleasant and skilled locksmith. That’s good enough for me, so I will definitely be using Steve’s services again should I need to.”
“Stayed at an air bnb in Burgess Hill. Thought my wife had the keys - she didn’t. Nice day out until we got back and realised neither of us had the keys. Host didn’t answer so called locksmith. Was with us in less than half an hour and got us in pretty quickly. Still don’t know where the keys are. Can’t thank Steve enough. Quick to us and quick to open the door and a decent sense of humour ( which helped with my wife ) He insisted on ID and our bnb booking confirmation of the address so I guess that’s a good thing. Hope never to have to call him again in the nicest possible way.”

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 locksmithGet 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.
