Great service.
Responded extremely quickly and resolved our issue instantly without any fuss. Also gave me some very good advice about home security. Highly recommend and would use again if I ever needed.

I had upvc patio doors that would not unlock. I chose Seymour locksmiths as they were local and there was no call out charge. He was at my house within 20 minutes and had the doors open within 5 minutes. Needless to say I was staggered! We had spent hours trying the handles up and down, injected solvents in the lock. A new locking system was called for. This was sorted without any fuss the following day as new parts were required. A thoroughly professional job with no drama and all at a very reasonable price . Keep businesses local . You wont regret it.

I'm over from America and staying at my Mum's house. Her front door lock mechanism broke a few days in, and I called Seymour Locksmiths. He was over within the hour, fixed it quickly and neatly (even though it required sawing out the stuck deadbolt). Charged me fairly, and was an interesting guy to chat to along the way. Highly recommend.

I was locked in because the handle was jammed on a upvc door. Jeff arrived in 20 mins, got the door open, found and fixed the immediate problem on the spot (broken door mechanism), then fixed the underlying cause (the door was hanging too low) - all within 30 mins, and on a Sunday! No call out charge, immediate response, very friendly and efficient service, very reasonably priced! Thank you Jeff!

Fantastic service from Jeff. Got us booked in the same day we initially called for a quote. Jeff not only changed our locks but adjusted our front door FOC after it had been incorrectly fitted. Jeff was polite and friendly. Highly recommend his services.

I had the misfortune of locking myself out of the house recently, the lock on the main door had failed. I contacted Seymour Locksmiths and the response was excellent arriving within 20 minutes. I was immediately put at ease that the problem could be sorted there and then, and within a short time, to my relief the door was open. The level of service I received was outstanding and extremely professional. I would not hesitate in recommending Seymour Locksmiths.

I would highly recommend Seymour Locksmiths. Jeff came to change the locks on our front door and was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable - he fully explained everything that he'd done and why. We now know how to lock the door in the safest way possible.

What a fantastic service. I snapped the key in a lock that had been faulty for a while.
Jeff arrived quickly and replaced the lock with plenty of spare keys and at a reasonable price. Nice friendly chap. I would definitely recommend and use again in the future. Thank you!

Geoff changed locks on my shop. He attended shortly after my call. His work was exactly what we needed and his price reasonable.
in addition to thus a day or two later he provided help to one of our customers, a confused elderly lady that had lost her keys. Once again the service was swift. this customer tried to pay him twice an error which Geof pointed out. So we can vouch for his honesty too.
