Frequently Asked Questions
ARE YOU QUALIFIED AND INSURED?
Yes we have public liability insurance and have undertaken professional training at various accredited training centres.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO DO THE JOB?
Each job varies and depends on the type of job. Emergency entries can be one minute to one hour, if we get in quick, luck to the both of us!
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PEOPLE OFFERING THE LOCKSMITH SERVICES FOR CHEAP?
Many people advertise as locksmiths but they are not insured or certified. There are many scams where a cheap quote is given then prices are severely raised at the job or the job isn’t too standard and will soon need a repair in most cases.
WHY DO PRICES VARY SO MUCH JOB TO JOB
Parts, types of parts, tools, and equipment cost. A lockpick will be cheaper than a new door lock that needs to be destroyed to gain entry. A Vauxhall key will in most cases be cheaper than a BMW key, different software costs are different for us to buy and use. In some cases we still even have to pay a fee to use the software at the job site which will increase the cost of the end product.
WHERE DO YOU WANT THE COMPANY TO BE IN THE FUTURE?
Starting as a small family-run business we hope to grow and have a name around our surrounding areas as one of the best locksmith companies.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS PROFESSION
Being burgled ourselves made us realise we wanted to help other people protect their homes. We also experienced unscrupulous and dishonest locksmiths overcharging for services and we wanted to build a business that was based on honesty, trust and integrity.
