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. - Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else. - Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time, not only the quality of the work. ## Contact - Phone: 020 8819 1457 - Website: http://www.smrlocksmiths.co.uk --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/smr-locksmiths-ltd-2 Real public evidence only: every figure traces to a named source, and reviews are cross-checked across 2 review sources.
