Local Business
As a local locksmith in Cannock, I can usually be on site within 30 minutes of calling.
A lot of national competitors will often promise similar times when in fact they will need to ring around a list of locksmiths before finding anyone to attend your job.
I often get called out when a customer finally gives up waiting for the sub contracted locksmith to travel from the busy end of Birmingham or further.
For the best service and cheapest rates always use a local locksmiths!

Cannock Locksmiths | Doors Repaired
07724-828289Hi, I'm Rick, local Cannock locksmith of twelve years, trustworthy, reliable and your "go to guy" when it comes to locks and upvc door problems.
I'm a self employed master locksmith, not part of any larger firms, franchises or corporations that are adding to your bill and charging VAT on top. Small, independent and with a good local reputation to uphold.
Whatever your lock issue, give me a call and I'll do my best to sort it all out for you.
Door repairs are now a large portion of the locksmith market.
uPVC doors now outnumber traditional timber doors by 3 to 1 in the Cannock area.
Incorporating some of the more complicated locking systems on the market means they can be notoriously finicky in terms of adjustment and smooth locking of the door.
A well maintained and correctly installed door should not need forcing into the locked position and the key should turn easily in the lock.
I have worked as a locksmith in Cannock for twelve years and from experience I have found the main cause of broken upvc lock mechanisms is due to forcing of the handles when the doors have become stiff or do not lock properly.
Often all that is required is to get the door adjusted by a locksmith when symptoms first occur.
It's better to get it repaired before the door lock fails and leaves you locked out and in need of an expensive multipoint lock!
*** A Word Of Warning ***
I would like to warn potential customers that there has been a major increase in the number of call centres advertising in Cannock and that you should obtain several quotations to avoid getting stung. They appear to be local when in fact they are just middlemen sub contracting the work at out extortionate rates. Always make that extra effort to find yourself a genuine local locksmith that won't just take your money and run.
TS007 Standard Locks
In the past few years it has come to light that certain upvc door lock cylinders are being targeted by criminals that have discovered a simple way to unlock your door.
In response to this new security flaw lock manufacturers have upped their game and have produced higher spec locks to meet the requirements of new insurance standards.
As well as the British Standard some insurance companies are now requesting main doors to adhere to a 3 star ts007 rating.
If you live in Cannock and would like to discuss this further with me then you can contact me on 07724828289.
