I have used Gary from Lock Solid a couple of times now over the years. Very knowledgeable and a really nice guy to deal with. Always quick to attend and nothing ever a problem. I’d more than happily recommend Lock Solid to anyone. Thanks again for your help!

I am delighted with Locksolid. Gary was very professional in workmanship, communucation and very pleasant all round. He worked with Stan who was also very good. Would highly recommend Locksolid and they did a great job for us. We had new timber gate with great lock and a new fence - perfect job. Please don't hesitate to make contact with Gary at Locksolid.

I found Gary at short notice on Trusted Trader and he dealt with a front door locking problem within a few hours of me contacting him.
I can’t thank him enough for such professional service. He arrived when he said he would, gave good advice and there were no hidden costs ……only a very reasonable price for the work done.
Can highly recommend Lock Solid.

Gary, Shane, George and the rest of the team at Lock Solid Joinery did a great job at replacing a large main door to a communal building and constructing a brand new back door, and installing an entry phone system to all apartments. The work is of a high quality and the electrics are all in good working order. The property is substantially improved as a result. The team were consistently helpful and easy to work with and responsive to last minute requests. It was good value for the money spent and I would strongly recommend Lock Solid Joinery.

My experience with Lock Solid Joinery was absolutely superb. From the initial visit with Gary he listened and immediately gained a full understanding of our requirements for the property we had just moved into. He offered fantastic advice and solutions. We had security concerns and we changed our locks leaving us feeling our property is much more secure. Furthermore, we had other joinery requirements in the property and Gary made excellent cost effective suggestions. The communication throughout was excellent. Everything was done very easy and hassle-free. We have other bits and pieces of joinery that we are looking to get done within our property and without any hesitation we will use Lock Solid Joinery. If you have any lock or joinery requirements you really should speak to these guys. 10/10

Gary came out at very short notice to repair conservatory door which would not lock or close. He went above and beyond and now the door opens so smoothly, better that it has ever been. Would highly reccomend him.

Gary did an excellent job fixing a broken window hinge on a sash window and fitting locks to a number of windows. Neither job was as straightforward as it ought to have been, due to poor design of the in-place windows, but Gary applied ingenuity in finding ways to achieve the aims. His communication was excellent throughout and I would recommend him to anyone requiring similar work.

We wanted to fit a closer to the main door of St Anne's Church in Dunbar. The configuration of the door was complex and we had previously failed to find a solution or contractor to do the work. Gary accepted the challenge and was able to suggest an alternative, cheaper closer to the one that we had identified. While it took a little time to obtain the closer and make an arrangement to fit it, the closer is now installed and working. Thanks to Gary for overcoming a tricky problem.

My French doors suddenly wouldn't lock, although the actual lock itself seemed ok. Contacted Gary at Lock solid joinery and he came round very quickly. Sorted my doors and readjusted them (better than they ever were,actually). No hesitation in recommending.

It is with pleasure that I leave a review for Lock Solid Joinery. Lock Solid Joinery were tasked with the repair of a communal stair door on South Clerk Street. Contractors take on Communal repairs at their peril as the organisation required to quote for, approve and then complete work can often be substantial. This was one of the more challenging communal repairs I have worked on, with many opinions, and lots of toing and froing, even after the quotes had been approved. However, Lock Solid was so calm and patient throughout the whole process, it really spoke to their experience in this field. The work was exactly what we expected, as was the invoice.
We would highly recommend Lock Solid Joinery, and wouldn’t hesitate to use their services, again.
