Lancashire lock and safe were really efficient in dealing with my enquiry. The work done was a good price and Tony who came and fitted the locks for me was great, he explained all about the locks and key reordering process. I would not hesitate to use them again. Thank you!

I had been here there and everywhere to get some keys cut for a new Master padlock and no one had the blanks until I got here and they knew that a certain Squire blank would do the job they are very knowledgeable and will do there best to sort you out, so I will use them in the future before bothering with anyone else, also they were much cheaper 5 for the price of 3, the only problem is parking, it's not a problem finding space just knowing where to go round the back of the Landing or maybe on Halfords car park opposite Lancashire Lock and Safe is your best bet

Great service. Made sure I had the correct replacement lock for my bifold doors and advised how to fit it. Brilliant. You may save a few pence at Toolfix, but their knowledge and expertise is priceless.

Fantastic service from this local company. Contacted them on a Monday and asked if they could do the job the following week and they agreed. Arrived promptly, did a very clean job at a very competitive price.
