Report
Always very pleasant and helpful. Usually cheaper than the shop run by Tim and his sons and it's a local independent business too. Wide range of goodies including smaller bits n bats sometimes hard to find. Not yet needed by myself but, I believe they do call out as well.

Report
We visited to get advice on providing security and ease of use for an elderly relative who was suffering from dementia and had on occasions locked her carers out and herself in. The staff were well versed in this scenario and supplied suitable door lock and advice on fitting. The price was very competitive, technical knowledge first class and service friendly, empathetic and professional. I would highly recommend this company.

These guys are amazing, saved me so much hassle. I am so glad I called them not the guy who tried to blag their success by copying their name. They came out and replaced my worn and broken lock in double quick time, the installer was professional, competent and even vacuumed after everything. Cannot fault them.
