Highlights
"Truly a lifesaver! He came out super quick, although I was in Lechlade and out of his way. Had me back in my house in less then a minute, Due to the ease of the job (if you are a professional and know your trade) He didn’t charge me and wouldn’t take any small gift as a gesture of my gratitude. I would recommend him to anyone, for his honesty, humanity and simply a wonderful caring company!! I wouldn’t go anywhere else now. Thanks so much!"

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.
