Amazing!!
Debbie came within 10 mins of being called. She was efficient friendly, and extremely knowledgeable – she knew exactly what she was doing!
She solved the problem of replacing a whole locking system in another 10 mins.
I have already recommended her to my neighbours. -

Debbie arrived when she said she would. She quickly worked out what was wrong with our double glazed front door lock and had the appropriate part in her van. She then replaced the lock and charged a reasonable price. I would definitely recommend Debbie.

We found our back door wouldn’t open, luckily we were inside and had another exit, we phoned Lock Monkey and Debbie came very promptly, was most professional and quickly fitted a new lock. We were so pleased we also got her to put a new handle and lock on our front door. I can recommend her with no hesitation, honest, friendly and very efficient.

Debbie, The Lock Monkey, has repaired/replaced locks for us on two occasions. She is totally reliable, keeps in contact, and completes the job with the minimum not fuss. We thoroughly recommend her for reliability, price and excellent work.

Our front door lock had broken so we were unable to open the door. Within a day or so a new lock had been fitted, the door edge planed, all within 40 minutes. Everything was left clean and tidy. Brilliant service, thank you.

When someone arrives when they say they will, knows what they’re talking about and carries out the work well and clears up afterwards you it’s a good company as is the case with The Lock Monkey. Would definitely recommend.

Amongst frantic panic of being locked out I was given the phone number of Lock Monkey.Debbie responded promptly, listened carefully to the issue and crawled through holiday traffic to the rescue. I couldn’t have asked for a calmer, more positive, skilled person to tackle the issue.Not only did she get in with less damage and fuss than I thought possible she repaired the lock and fitted new handles there and then! She was very professional, reassuring and tidied up afterwards. It always seems the worst time for something like that to happen. Then someone very good at what they do… [read more]
takes the stress away, does an excellent job and restores your faith in the state of the world. Thank you Debbie, I have put your number in my phone and insisted on all my friends and colleagues making a note of it too! -

I wish to leave a very positive review about the most efficient and excellent service which we received from the Lock Monkey yesterday 10th March 2023.Our door lock would not work which meant that we could not leave the house because we could not lock-up and leave the house secure. In fact the door lock was broken. A charming young lady came within a very short time of my telephoning for help. She diagnosed the problem immediately; fitted a new lock which she had in her van, and the whole task was completed very smoothly.I cannot recommend the Lock Monkey… [read more]
more highly.The Local Expert is an invaluable publication without which we could not have had our door lock repaired so efficiently and quickly by a most efficient company as the Lock Monkey. -

Debbie came bang on time and did an excellent job. There was no call-out fee, a year’s guarantee (not that I’ll need it) and she chatted pleasantly when she had finished.

She was recommended to me by Calvin at the excellent Sid Valley Windows – to fix a broken lock mechanism on my back door. Debbie has just been and I’d definitely recommend her- she was friendly, flexible to come at a time that fit in with me and did a good job.
