Very quick response, left other locksmiths wanting! Freed me in next to no time & sorted my lock out. Daniel is a friendly & trustworthy person.
Dan to the rescue! Amazing service, Dan rescued me when one of my double doors would not close. I called Dan late at night, he responded really quickly and within a matter of minutes arrived on my doorstep. The problem was fixed in less than 20 minutes. Doors were back in working again. I highly recommend Dan. Thank you 🙏
Dan came and sorted a problem with my bifold doors. He turned up promptly and was very professional. Would definitely use him again
I cannot recommend Dan highly enough! After a panicked phone call because my door wouldn’t open he was there within the hour. He was extremely professional and completed the job the follow day when the parts had been delivered. Thank you
Contacted Dan at lunchtime and had the job done by 3pm. Very polite, efficient, and was true to his word which is a rarity with trades nowadays! Contacted a few people prior to finding Dan and he was the most reasonably priced also. Very happy with the work carried out and very glad I found him! 5 🌟
Dan was very helpful and able to sort out all 3 of our locks we were having issues with. All working properly now and at a very reasonable price - thanks Dan!

Excellent service & cannot recommend enough! Thanks for helping us :)

I can’t thank Dan from Craftkey Locksmiths enough! He responded incredibly quickly when I found myself locked out, arriving promptly and having me back inside my house in well under an hour. From the moment he turned up, Dan was friendly, reassuring, and genuinely welcoming, exactly what you need in a stressful situation. He clearly knows his trade inside out and took great care to get the job done efficiently without any damage. On top of that, he offered really helpful advice and went above and beyond to make sure everything was secure before he left. It’s rare to find someone so professional, reliable, and personable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dan and Craftkey Locksmiths to anyone. Five stars all the way!
Couldn’t recommend enough. We called Dan out when we lost our keys on a walk and couldn’t get back in with our 9 week old baby. He arrived super fast and got us back inside in no time at all. 100% recommend.
All I can say is a fantastic service! Nothing was a problem for Dan, I recommend him for professionalism, communication, quality of workmanship and a fair price. I will be using him and have recommended him to all of the neighbours around the north of the new forest. Thank you Dan!
