The Best Locksmiths in Derbyshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Don’t often post,, but credit where it’s due, had an issue with the French doors and the most helpful chap ever came on the phone and advised someone could come out and repair the door for an incredibly reasonable call-out fee, not only that,, this chap walked me through some possibilities what the issue could be purely by me describing the fault,, I will not hesitate to use this company, a local gem and long may they be in business 10/10 from me

Just got to the leabrooks shop before closing, armed with door locking parts from my back door. In no time at all Abbie had got my locking mechanism fixed and working again, much to my relief,and an hour later I'd got it back installed and good as new. So pleased I found your website and that you're local to me. Many thanks for a brilliant, swift service in my hour of need. Andy, Belper

Wow tried to repair the Door Gearbox what a nightmare it fell apart went to the Leabrooks Shop at 16.15 in a panic could not lock the back door. The young lady fitted a new gear box supplied two new Handles. This is what you call excellent 5 star service . all back together door locks Thank you so much

Very happy with this company. They fitted new patio doors for me and they look great. I also asked for some free advice about other door thresholds which they gladly gave me and as a bonus, fixed my squeaky door on the way out (not the ones they had just fitted). Thankyou very much.

I had a broken front door stuck in locked position. After a quick search I found Acorn and called Ashley who returned my message within half an hour. After talking through the problem and Ashley assuring me the property was secure due to the lock failing, he described next steps arriving first thing Monday morning. After gaining access he then managed to obtain the required parts, replace them and leave me with a fully working, upgraded lock by lunchtime. Ashley was great to deal with, explained everything and costs very clearly. I was due to go away for a couple of days and managed to rearrange his day to ensure I got sorted. 10/10 great guy, quality work, very reasonably priced, would highly recommend to anyone needing locksmith services, whether an emergency or routine work. Thanks Ashley for being there!!!! Regards Dave

The best locksmith service, professional and efficient. Has helped twice with a broken lock. Gets the job done and would highly recommend.

Fully recommend Acorn Locksmiths; Ash didn't just do the job but resolved a problem. I needed him to open an existing lock and replace as we didn't have the keys anymore. He explained what he would need to do and cracked on without any fuss. He was clear about the pros and cons of the different options and upfront with the costs. The door, when it was opened, had warped/expanded and wouldn't close properly. Ash didn't want to leave us with a lockable door that we couldn't secure. He went the extra mile and planed down the necessary section of the door so we could close everything securely. At least until we get a new door. Thanks so much, really appreciated.

Yep, a class guy. Ash is fantastic, the guy to go to when it comes to anything lock related! Thanks for coming to inspect my front door Ash! and thank you for your honesty.

Fantastic Service - First Class! Thanks to the guys at Livens Locksmiths who attended to a door lock that was proving problematic, same day and within the hour with the issues resolved. Highly recommend Livens and will certainly use their services again in the future, thank you guys! Rob Dale - MD@Strata Windows, Stoke on Trent

Contacted them this morning regarding a faulty door. Tenant messaged this afternoon to say all done. Great service.

Great service, not a emergency but they came in a few days. Explained the options and got the job done.

Excellent service. Very knowledgable on all sorts of locks and helpful quick setvice.

Needed an emergency gain entry and lock change on a Sunday. Very accommodating, arrived very quickly, really friendly. No messing around, all done and cleaned up in 20 mins. Adjusted the door to sit better at the same time even though he did not need to. Excellent price considering for a standard lock change, absolute bargain for an emergency. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Tim was very helpful recently when a customer of mine locked himself out of his room with valuable possessions inside. Unfortunately I was (at the same time) called out to another emergency out of County. Despite being "out of hours" Tim was poised and ready to go within minutes and headed out to the customer, arriving in about 20 minutes. Tim was able to pick open the lock which allowed the cylinder to be used on a key when the "in hours" staff returned - this made the job cheaper for the customer who had made a simple mistake. Thank you Tim and I will happily recommend him for any locksmith work in the future.

Quite simply excellent service. Tim came out within 15 minutes of my phone call and sorted out my badly fitting UPVC door perfectly. Great job and very reasonable price, thank you Tim.

I had a problem with one of my UPVC French doors not locking, and being relatively new to the area had no idea who to call. Following a Goole search found Tim, and within a couple of hours of initial call he was on the scene, assessed the need for a new internal mechanism and ordered the parts. He also realigned the doors properly, and refused any payment until the next day, when the parts arrived. Kept me in the loop, arrived and sorted out the repair with minimal fuss. Really great service, and highly recommended to anyone in the area needing a friendly and efficient locksmith.

Brilliant service, would definitely recommend. After waiting for another company to come out after 3 weeks, he came when it was convenient for me and fixed my car key in super fast time. No problems since. 5 stars definitely

Absolutely lovely guy, work efficiently and effectively save me a lot of money in terms of replacement and losing out of work. Was in time and very respectful. Highly recommended. Made me a spare check out the lovely key

Best service! Good quality! Response in time! I recommend 100% ! In less than 45 min he fixed my car key and is more cheap than another company!

Highly recommend. Was with us within less than half an hour and got us into the car quickly and at ease. I then used his services to obtain a new key and repair my old one all within the convenience of my working day. Thank you again

Paul came round swiftly and sorted my front door lock which was stuck closed! Communication was excellent and he let me know when he was on his way, he explained what he was going to do and did an excellent job, highly recommend!

I was told to ring this company when I needed help as my one and only caravan key had snapped in half. I was hoping to arrange a visit to help me get my door unlocked. Paul was extremely helpful on my initial call and made some suggestions to try first. Took his advice and my problem was solved. Extremely pleased that I contacted this company who helped and saved me the expense of an appointment.

Great service! Paul arrived really quickly and changed all our locks late in the evening in less than half an hour. Really good value for money too. Thanks!

SP Lock & Safe came out to our premises the next day and sorted the fire door problem on his first visit. Others would not come as they had not fitted it. Thanks SP

Simon was very good at what he did. He explained the whole process to me and why my old lock wasn’t working properly. He also showed me how it was a cheaper and less secure type of lock. He replaced it with a much safer one. Simon cut the keys in his van and brought them back, when he was done. Simon was efficient, good value for money, friendly, professional and I would recommend him any day.

What a fabulous company. My tenant rang last night to say both locks on her doors were playing up. I rang Simon after reading reviews and he was more than happy to help. He liaised with the tenant and arranged to go the next day. Speedy service of doors and new locks fitted for a very reasonable price. He even came round to deliver the spare landlords keys. I would highly recommend Simon to anyone and will definitely use again in the future x thank you for your polite, courteous service Simon x

Simon is quick to respond to messages and complete work required. He is friendly, professional and his prices are really good value. I have used Simon's local locksmiths twice now and recommended him to friends and family. I will definitely use again if needed in the future.

An absolute lifesaver! Came home at 4pm, put the key in the front door (Ultion lock) it was stiff, managed to unlock house but the lock proceeded to fire out the barrel and spit bits of metal all over the drive. Couldn't lock the door, now have an insecure house! Rang Simon, proper nice chap, he was here within the hour and replaced the whole lock at what I think is a very very reasonable price given the speed of the service. An easy 5 stars!
