The Best Locksmiths in Chilfrome, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

Amazing service, the manor in which my request was dealt with was second to none, got me back into my home safe with no damage and even got it working again. offered me options and did their utmost to save me money couldn’t ask for more…

My daughter was stuck at college with my car which had a flat battery. Our key fob had no manual key in so breakdown were called to tow her back to local garage. I was recommended to try Dan and I’m so glad I was as he managed to make a key to get in then proceeded to jump start the car. So very grateful for all his help and would definitely recommend him. His number is now stored in my phone incase we are in that situation again.

Just been & had a remote key fob made from scratch for my Toyota Aygo. Am so pleased & impressed with service, didn't take long at all. Very affordable price. Thank you so much Dan, much appreciated, will definitely recommend you

Amazing guy! Can't thank Dan enough. Came out to me after I stupidly auto locked my keys in the back of my van when on a job away from home and unable to get my spare. Won't disclose any trade secrets but managed to get to my keys and unlock the van without causing any damage whatsoever. Pleasantly surprised by the cost too, was expecting to pay a lot more. Absolute life saver!! Thank you!!!

We had a extension done on our house one of our little ones must have hid the keys well playing so Paul came round and replaced the the barrel with a brand new one and keys, great job and great price thanks again SW Locksmiths

Contacted Southwest Locksmiths after waiting nearly 2 hours for a national locksmiths to turn up. Within 5 mins of calling SouthWest Locksmiths, they were here to help let me into my home. I wish I had called Southwest Locksmiths first, instead of wasting 2 hours out in the cold with my dogs after a dog walk gone wrong. Great friendly service and would highly recommend 100%. Keep up the good work!

Absolutely fantastic service. We rang at 9am and Paul was here before lunchtime, managed to open the door and fitted a new mechanism which he had on board. Finally, a really reasonable price for the work. Cannot recommend highly enough. You have restored our faith in humanity!

Outstanding service and highly recommended. We had just arrived at our campsite and I managed to break the locker key in the lock whilst unpacking. Arrived 15 minutes after calling and managed to free the lock and cut us a new key. Couldn’t be happier with the service!

I would highly recommend Chris, he came to the rescue earlier this week when we needed to gain entry to my dad’s property. He was quick, friendly, efficient and very reasonably priced. Thank you again 😊

I needed a replacement lock mechanism for a uPVc window, had exactly what I needed on the shelf

Always responds quickly and efficiently. Would highly recommend

Kevin was super efficient replacing two patio door locks and a back door lock that needed considerable adjustment. Highly professional and friendly to boot and not overpriced. Highly recommended.

Great service, arrived within 40 mins. Front door wasn’t locking properly and property was left unsecured. Quick adjustment and no parts needed. Would definitely recommend and use again

The service we received from Kevin during a power outage was outstanding! Kevin had to get us back into our garage (keys in the lock on the inside of the pedestrian door - doh! - and no power to the up and over garage door). This was a really tricky and urgent job so that our electrician could access our mains supply and restore the power to our house and garage. Kevin's skill and perseverance meant that the electrician was in very quickly and we had new locks immediately with no damage to either door - superb!

Honestly couldn’t fault Kevin and the service he delivered. He was friendly and calming in a stressful situation. Really reasonably priced. Thank you.

Could not recommend enough, he came out of his way to help me get my property secured while waiting for a part to be ordered. He is very friendly and does an amazing job.

Dan was very efficient! we made a call regarding our door lock and he was with us within 10 minutes and resolved the issue within minutes. amazing service! very pleased :)

Dan came out quickly when we were locked out of our house without keys. He was very professional, knowledgeable and provided great service. Good price too. Highly recommend!

Amazing service. Came out quickly. Let me know exactly when to expect him. Explained exactly what he was doing (because I’m nosey!) and did a fabulous job. Also a thoroughly nice gent!! Would absolutely recommend!!

Left my key with them, and, Having heard nothing for 4 days, returned to the centre, to be told that no one had looked at it yet. It was still on the desk where he had put it when I gave it to him. To be fair, he came back to me later that day, and the issues were resolved within 24 hours. Poor start, got better. Left another key with him to be fixed over the weekend. Good price. I agree that you responded quickly, and I was just as quick to edit the original review. Best Regards.

Called ASL last week to arrange a new key for my van. Was given a few dates to choose from including today. They turned up at my North Dorset based business & completed the work (making a new key) in under 30 mins. Very quick, friendly & efficient service. Very happy customer. 👍🏻👌🏻

I managed to lose the keys to my old 1993 volvo. Another locksmith company didn't want to deal with it because of the age. I rang Martin at ASL late Monday eve, by Monday monday afternoon he had visited, helped me get into the car and had 3 new keys cut. Perfect, friendly service at a surprisingly low price.

Great team of people. Helped me out by providing something the VW dealers were struggling with due to lack of key fobs in the UK for a 2017 Beetle. Multiple 'We do any key' type companies didn't want to know and stated dealer only. ASL sorted it out without issue. Appreciated.

Super friendly, realistic pricing. What's not to like. I needed a second key for my motorhome. Fiat wanted in excess of £300. Martin wanted £60. This is for a key with a chip embedded in it and is not something all key cutting places can do. Well Wessex can do it because it is not just a key cutting place though that is certainly on the menu. No, this is a proper locksmiths, the like of which are few and far between. If you are in this part of the world and need keys cut, door locks, safes etc etc. This is where you should head. So grateful to Martin.

Wessex Locksmiths first class services. Sorted my car key and recoding no problem. Great price and would highly recommend this company to anyone. Thank you so much for the customer service and quick turnaround.

Supplied a complete replacement kit for a bathroom lock which was about 25 years old at a very reasonable cost They also supplied spare key fobs for a Ford and Audi cars Price was much much less than the dealers quoted. Quick service and professional locksmiths Thank you

I'm so glad I used this company to install locks in my new house. Sam assessed my house so he could order the correct size locks and he was very polite and informative when explaining the difference between 1, 2 and 3 star locks. I chose the 3 star locks as I wanted to make sure my insurance company couldn't refuse a claim if someone ever broke in. A few days later Lee visited and installed the locks. Lee was also amazing! He was super nice and installed the locks quickly. He even adjusted the hinges on a set of double doors that rubbed together when they closed. I could see that the locks Lee installed were much thicker and higher quality than the originals and the new keys were also a lot thicker. All of the locks work so much more smoothly than the originals. They turn very easily and there's no movement on any of the doors if you jostle the doorknobs when the doors are closed and locked. It's also so much easier to luck and unlock the new cylinders. And the adjustment of the double doors is incredible - I no longer have to lift the door to lock it :-) If I had purchased some cheap locks from a hardware shop they would have been cheaper, but they would never have worked as smoothly (or been as secure) as the '3 star' locks I purchased from Wessex Locksmiths. And these locks will last the entire time I own the house. Highly recommended.

Had a front door that was stuck in the closed and locked position. Steve arrived and was extremely professional and courteous at all times. Had to order new part and returned to complete the job quickly. Very happy with service provided and very happy to recommend.

Steve arrived promptly, fixed the lock on my door efficiently and for an extremely reasonable price. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services!

Steve was excellent, great price and sorted my lock on minutes. From start to finish he was easy to deal with and always responded to emails. If I have a drama again he's definitely the one I will be calling, thanks Steve

Steve fitted some new locks for us and did a great job. Super quick and efficient and a nice bloke too. Would wholeheartedly recommend!

Tim from 'You're in Lock' deserves a solid 5-star review! His service was prompt, friendly, and accommodating to my schedule. Tim efficiently changed all four door locks and provided new keys, showcasing his professionalism. His friendly and calm demeanor added to a positive experience. Complete confidence in using his services again in the future.

Wow! What an amazing guy with incredible service. Got locked out on our first day, he came out straight away and was so helpful and reasonably priced and was a good laugh whilst doing so. Photo below of our move in photo, with the one and only Tim!

Tim was incredibly helpful, didn’t even charge us! Highly recommend

Tim is brilliant, swift to respond and very professional. He fitted a Simpled UK’ Smart lock’ for me and was kind enough to offer advice about the pros and cons of the different brands before I chose that lock. Tim was very quick to fit it , dealing with a couple of curved balls during the fitting. He even helped me set the app up on my phone and showed me the different functions. Thoroughly nice gentleman. Made me feel safe and secure.

Was in the position of being locked out of the house due to a faulty lock. It was around 6 o clock and after calling Adam's locks he agreed to help. I didn't have to wait long as he came to the house straight away. Within the hour he got me into the house and replaced the lock. Fantastic job and can highly recommend Adam's locks. Very professional, responsive and good value.

I highly recommend Adam. He was quick to respond to communications, efficient and friendly. His customer service is excellent. A couple of weeks after changing my locks the doors had swollen in all the rain. He came the same morning and adjusted them for me. Highly recommended.

Excellent service by Adam. Gave him a call and within 10 minutes he had turned up to help. Great bloke.Highly recommend using him

Adam is fantastic. Wish I could give 6 stars. It was lashing down with rain, dark and an incredibly tricky - must have been the job from hell but he got it done, was friendly throughout and was reasonably priced. He came out when no other locksmith I tried would (and I tried several) I hope I never need a locksmith again, but if I do - he’s the man I’m going to call. Cheers Adam, hope we didn’t ruin your evening too much!
