Dave is an absolute legend. My upvc door gearbox had failed and he responded that night to come the next day to get it fixed. Super friendly, very honest and fair and charged a really fair price. Best bit, no hidden charges or sneaky add ons.
Emergency boarding up,
tonight.
A shattered window or forced door leaves your property open to further theft and damage. LockFit boards up homes and businesses 24 hours a day, after burglary, vandalism, fire or police forced entry.

With you in 20–40 minWhy board up straight away?
Broken glass and forced doors make a property an easy target for opportunistic thieves. Boarding protects against vandalism, secures the building against entry, and holds things together while you wait for replacements.
- Protects from vandalism
- Ideal while you await replacements
- Secures the property from unwanted entry
How it works
We work in partnership with the police to secure properties after burglaries, vandalism and forced entries, and we provide the same emergency service directly to the public after a break-in, a fire or accidental damage. We can often be with you within 20 to 40 minutes, day or night.
While boarding up, your locksmith surveys the damage and takes measurements so a permanent repair can be organised quickly. We remove loose glass and leave the area safe and clean. We can carry out work covered by insurance claims.
Be careful who you call. After a break-in, use a reputable, local, DBS-checked locksmith. You never pay for a LockFit quotation.

I got locked inside my house this morning and I panicked. I rang Matt from Lockfit and what a saviour. He arrived within around 35 minutes and within 20 minutes my lock was mended and all at a good price.
Definitely recommend! We called early hours in the morning (2am) and only had a short wait of 10 minutes. Very professional and helpful.
We got broken into and Alex and his team was amazing. Came quickly, and boarded door up. Gave us a bit of peace of mind in amongst the stress and chaos.
Arrived promptly on a Saturday afternoon and diagnosed and fixed the issue quickly. A complex job with a complete door gear system failure and lock replacement whilst the door was still locked. Would use again.
Dan and Sam handled an incredibly difficult situation with exceptional professionalism, care, and sensitivity. They did much more than just replace a lock; they went above and beyond.
Broke my lock on the way out to work, had no idea what to do. Called Jay, he talked me through what went wrong and my available options. Sorted the problem within the hour with a 12 month guarantee on the work.
Really impressed with the service received, Jacob came out within the hour to fix a broken lock. Great service and great price, would recommend.
Gary came out at short notice, was extremely helpful, provided an excellent service and would use again any day. Highly recommended.
Despite our head office changing the plans at every turn, these guys stuck with us and overcame every issue and left us something better than what we asked. Can’t fault them.
Very efficient work for a good price. I would recommend Jay’s services and plan to use them again in the future.
Fantastic service, Robert was out within the hour.
Couldn’t have asked for a better service, the whole process was incredibly easy and great value. Thank you!
The best. Thank you for coming so quickly and getting the job done.
