Highlights
"I contacted the Locksmith and we arranged a date for him to meet us at our beach hut which needed a replacement lock. He was on time but contacted my husband for directions as it turned out he was at the wrong car park, so couldn't find us. He brought all the necessary tools to do the job, which he did quickly and effciently. He was friendly, tidy and polite."
"I lifted the handle to lock the French doors but it went up too far and wouldn't go down below the horizontal and so the doors were stuck shut from inside and out. Amazingly, Safelock were able to upen the doors without damaging them and replaced the broken gearbox mechanism, but kept the existing barrel and keys. I'm delighted; I thought I was looking at new doors. I will definitely be using them again to de-mist some UPVc panes and replace another lock before it fails."

What this business says about itself
Online since 2019. Their website domain was first registered in 2019, according to the public domain registry — an independent sign of how long they’ve been operating online (we checked this ourselves, it’s not a claim from their site).
- Emergency availability: 24/7
- Guarantee: 1 Year Warranty
These are statements the business makes on its own website — worth confirming in writing (and on the official registers) before you hire, not independently verified by us.

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.
