– I am qualified and competent in performing all work and do so to the highest of standards. We are covered with the appropriate insurances and I personally am security vetted and DBS checked.

Being a locksmith and security business, we offer a wide range of locksmith Gloucester services such as non-destructive property and vehicle entry, lock and window hardware installation and carpentry work, and NDE safe opening using manipulation and bypass techniques.

UPVC and composite door and window adjustments, multi-point locking mechanisms and gearbox replacements, and we install and maintain security systems such as alarm configuration networks and CCTV set-ups.

OUR ETHOS – 24-hour mobile locksmith service is born

My main passion is gaining entry or accessing a lock non-destructively by lock-picking or using other bypass techniques. This love of mine stems from my long-standing hobby of lock-sport and lock picking.

– If you’re locked out of your property, I am going to do everything I can to pick open or otherwise bypass your lock without causing any damage. On the rare occasions when a lock must be drilled, the decision isn’t taken lightly and is a last resort leaving me feel like I’ve failed on some level. – There is almost always other options to explore if one particular lock isn’t playing ball.

WORK CODE – We don’t function like other 24-hour mobile service locksmith Gloucester

We are not a lock and hardware retailer like some other locksmiths who sell products on at a huge mark-up after unnecessarily drilling customers locks. – We simply don’t want or need to operate in that way. – We keep what we need to on-hand and have access to a rapid supply chain for goods the same day if something is needed which isn’t held in stock, so we never have stock or supply issues.

When we change or replace locks, handles, security escutcheons or any other door or window furniture we use kitemarked British Standard components complying to BS-3621 and BS-8621 as a matter of course. Either 1 or 3-star lock cylinders are used in conjunction with other security items to maintain a 3-star total installation wherever possible, (which is the requirement made by many home insurance companies). Where the door is fitted with a mortice lock we will either install or advise the customer to have a BS 5-lever curtained mortice or sash lock installed on external doors, which then would normally be combined with a night-latch lock or similar to meet insurance requirements.

Fire egress code and other regulatory standards are observed in commercial & domestic properties, like rented accommodation or blocks of flats and multiple occupancy buildings.

We are completely transparent with the pricing of locks and hardware that we supply and our prices are comparable to those achievable elsewhere, either in-store or online. – Get a quote for GL_Locks services
