Excellent, responsive and professional service from Kevin at Adlocks, who provided us with a spare car key because we only had one when the car was purchased.

Kevin from Adlocks Locksmith efficiently fixed two broken window hinges and handles, as well as a door that had been problematic for a while. Despite the challenge of sourcing parts for older windows, Kevin successfully managed to resolve the issues and did an excellent job. I am delighted with the outcome and would highly recommend Adlocks Locksmith for any window and door repair needs.

Upon my recent move to Chelmsford, I required a locksmith to resolve some issues. After searching for recommendations on Facebook, I found Adlocks. I messaged Kevin yesterday afternoon, and he promptly scheduled a visit for the next day. Kevin arrived on time, and his service was fantastic. He provided clear explanations of the work done, addressed our needs, and even went above and beyond. His pricing was very reasonable, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to others. Thank you, Adlocks, for the excellent service.

Kevin from Adlocks was absolutely superb! We had an issue with our front door and rear French doors. He came over, replaced the mechanisms and handles, and now they work like they're brand new. Kevin is also a really nice, down-to-earth guy. Thank you so much, Kevin!

Kevin thank you for saving the day! I contacted Kevin as I'd stupidly locked myself out. He was round in a flash, explained the differents types of ways he will attempt access and got me back in the house promptly. I really appreciated the advice he gave me afterwards on additional security options I could consider to make my home more secure. It was honest, useful and without any attempt to sell me the products, however i'll definitely take him up on the advice!
