I called Lock Solutions one evening as both the locks in my French windows had broken in the locked position. Wayne offered to come round there and then, but as the doors were locked, there was no rush and he agreed to come early the following day. Wayne arrived at 9.00am and was courteous, very knowledgeable, and had the doors open very quickly, with no damage to the upvc frames at all. A superb service, and a fair price, too. I have added Lock Solutions number to my contact list in case I need Wayne's services in the future, and would thoroughly recommend them.
