Fantastic, can't fault anything. I called about a broken front door lock, and they were out and had it fixed within the hour. Very pleased, thank you,
Excellent service thanks for getting back to me immediately and calling out so quickly. Definitely recommend your services
Fast, courteous and professional. Would recommend and use again.
The mortice on our Georgian front door jammed solid with the key half-turned and would not shift either way. He got it open without splitting the old timber and freed the lever pack rather than forcing a new lock on me. Sensible bloke, told me what he was doing as he went along.
We'd had trouble with the front door on the Howard Estate for weeks, the handle lifting but the bolts not catching. Turned out to be the mechanism inside rather than the lock, which I'd never have guessed. Sorted in one visit, and he showed me how to ease the door so it doesn't strain.
Locked out at Moreton Hall late on a Sunday with the kids getting cold. Got through to a real person who talked me through what to expect and what it might cost before anyone set off. No surprises at all when the bill came round.

FAQ
Looking for a reliable locksmith near me in Bury St Edmunds? 24-hour, same-day emergency locksmith service
Bury St Edmunds grew up around one of medieval England's richest Benedictine monasteries, and the abbey ruins in the Abbey Gardens still mark where the shrine of St Edmund once drew pilgrims. Local tradition puts the barons here in 1214, swearing the oath that fed into Magna Carta. Greene King has brewed in the town centre since 1799, and the Georgian streets near the cathedral carry the same weight of age. St Edmundsbury Cathedral only gained cathedral status in 1914, and its millennium tower was not finished until 2005. All of that history shows up in the locks we deal with.The town runs from that Georgian and Victorian core out to post-war and later estates, and each throws up its own work. Around Southgate and Eastgate the older doors carry mortice locks and worn night latches. On the Priors Estate and the Howard Estate the joinery is newer, and the multipoint mechanisms in composite doors are what usually fail. The Westley Estate and the Mildenhall Road Estate sit somewhere between the two. Moreton Hall was built as a new suburb from the 1980s onward, so the hardware there tends to be composite doors and modern cylinders. We work across Westley as well. Old lever locks or newer cylinders, we work on what is fitted and leave it turning cleanly. Within Bury St Edmunds you can expect someone in 15 to 30 minutes. We give the honest figure at booking, whether it flatters us or not. A straightforward job costs £39 in labour. Should you need a lock, prices start at £25 and include the fitting. For 12 months after the visit, both the hardware and the workmanship are covered by warranty. The locksmith at your door is DBS-checked and fully insured. That applies to every one of them, on every job.
