We are still providing a 24 hour service subject to client circumstances and will follow all current government guidelines to keep everyone safe. Also we will discount our services to NHS staff if they show us their work ID. The Chief Constable for West Yorkshire Police told the Examiner that homes were at risk because it just took a matter of seconds to disable the locks.
The normal cause of this problem is a dropped door, where hinges have moved or failed or a faulty lock mechanism; these can be dealt with but a general rule is if it's difficult to operate, get it seen to. Normally caused by a faulty locking mechanism; any good locksmith can sort this out for you. This will be caused by a failed locking mechanism in the majority of cases, but can be remedied with a minimum of damage.
Normally on the opposite side to the handle, either top, bottom or both, caused by the friction stays (hinges) being worn and requiring replacement; you do NOT require new windows and the parts are carried by our engineers. A draughty window can be made as good as new in under an hour. Normally caused by a broken window mechanism, it can be opened and the mechanism replaced.
Broken keys can be extracted but not always, every effort will be made to extract the key before others measures are taken. Lock may be old or worn, getting keys cut using non-original keys can also cause problems. If your lock problem is not listed here, then just contact us for help (we've seen it all!)

The kitchen tubular latch broke and the kitchen door could not be opened. Martin came as soon as soon as he finished another job. We thought it would require the dismantling of the door frame because there was no room between the door and the frame to get anything thin enough to push the lock to open. What did we know about locks! Martin got to work with his tools and within five minutes the door was open. No mess, no fuss, no damage. Martin is a true Master of his trade.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Value
Great service and very flexible as I asked Martin to bring his appointment forward (which he did at very short notice) after my front door unexpectedly would not shut. Fixed all of my other lock issues and I would not hesitate in recommending him.

Snapping my key in my front door wasn't the best thing I've done this year. A quick call and Martin from MYLock Locksmiths was at my address within 15 mins. Door opened and a new lock fitted with 20 mins of arrival. You couldn't ask for a better more friendly and cheerful service. If you ever need a locksmith in the Farnborough area at very competitive price then Martin from MyLock Locksmiths is your man.
