William arrived at the planned time and explained everything as he did the troubleshooting task with the lock. He identified the problem was the cylinder of my lock and gave me the details of cost and I was happy with that. He also cut me extra keys and tested them in the lock. So all the keys work! I found him professional, pleasant and efficient. I would recommend William

Prompt efficient professional self service. Was able to fix problem without having to order up a replacement. He went the extra mile and adjusted another handle while he was here. Would definitely recommend. Mr Good is self employed so you know who it is who coming to you, rather than someone from a larger company.

William came, exactly when we agreed, to put right our patio door which would not lock. The problem at first looked like a total replacement job but he detected an ingenious solution and fixed it in 20 minutes, and even gave us a discount on his quoted price. Altogether a very satisfactory and pleasant experience

We were unable to enter our flat due to a faulty lock. Albany Locksmiths were quick to respond, arriving within half an hour of our phone call and explained each process they undertook to get the door unlocked. They provided an excellent level of customer service and put us at ease during a stressful time with good humour. We would definitely recommend!

Locksmith came at time arranged, I was a bit concerned at only receiving one key as you usually get two keys.

Really satisfied by the service provided by William replacing the mortice lock on our front door for a new 5 lever one. The job turned out to be more complicated than it seemed initially, but William took the time to find the best solution. He made sure to explain everything very carefully and clearly throughout and to show me exactly what he was doing. He was very friendly and chatty throughout. Would happily recommend him to anyone and have him back for any issues in the future!

I needed a lock upgrade on my front door to meet insurance requirements. William arrived on time and replaced the old lock with minimal fuss. I'm very happy with his work and heartily recommend him.

William managed to fit in a lock replacement at short notice. He arrived at agreed time, explained the repair options clearly and did a thorough, tidy job with a one year guarantee. Will certainly keep in mind for similar jobs in future.

Replace lock on internal front door which was connected to our alarm system. - not an emergency.
William came next day and although he said he could repair our lock, we chose to have a new one as the original lock was 70 years old. He had a new lock in his van and was able to replace immediately.
William was a very pleasant man and a tidy worker.
