The Best Locksmiths in Wapping, Greater London, United Kingdom (2025)

TLDR: Go with London Locks, you won’t regret it. London Locks has a lot of wonderful reviews talking about their; great service, craftsmanship, timeliness to attend jobs, excellent communication skills, accurate quotes and billing, and how they are highly trained and trusted within their profession and members of the Master Locksmiths Association. I agree with all of this and I could write a review detailing how they provided this service for me and more, but what impressed me most about the team was their absolute integrity as a business and commitment to keeping people as safe as possible in their homes. I walked into London Locks to complete what was meant to be a simple errand on my lunch break to get a spare key cut for my front door, after replacing the locks a few months previously with a different locksmith that I found on Google. The team at London Locks took one look at my house keys and knew that the locks on my front door were sub par, and were not the high security and fire safe locks that I had requested to be fitted, and charged a very high price for by a different rouge locksmith. The top lock was a 5 pin rim cylinder, and the bottom lock was a 3 lever deadlock which was only designed for an interior door like a bedroom. Like a lot of people, I had just googled local locksmiths and went with a rouge contractor that seemed reputable and could do the work straight away, and naively paid the price. They knew immediately that I had been scammed by someone who was not skilled at all, known as “49er’s” within the trade for quoting a low initial price, often £49 and dramatically increasing the actual price when they are on the doorstep, breaking the law known as doorstep selling and using a Bait and Switch scam that is unfortunately very common. London Locks gave me quotes for different (actually) high security and fire safe locks along with a door chain, and came to fit a Finfort dual lock set up, with a night latch and deadlock version within a week. I got the version with a thumb turn inside for fire safety. Not only did London Locks do their job as a locksmith as you would expect and fit exceptionally secure locks that are 3 star kitemarked and approved by the police as being pretty much the best, Lloyd also encouraged me to report my original fraudulent locksmith to my bank to try and reclaim some of my money back, and provided me with the evidence and the legal terminology that I needed to do this. They went above and beyond as a team to keep me safe in my home; I don’t have the expertise in locks that they do, and I didn’t realise that I’d been scammed and would have been naively happy, thinking that my home was really secure when it wasn’t. I am beyond grateful.

Amazing service. We hired two times already and it never fails! Smooth communication and outstanding service. We had a bit of an issue because our lock was very old but he found a very quick solution and fixed it in no time. Highly recommended!

Brilliant service and very professional A visit was arranged within hours and lock fitted next day. We were given good advice on what was needed and Mark who did the work was efficient and pleasant. Everything was quickly done and dusted and at a very reasonable price. I only wish we had known about them before.

Incredible service. Had locked myself out of my flat, and the locksmith turned up 7 minutes after I phone. Got me back into my flat and was able to meet my request of upgrading the lock there and then. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

Ryan has saved me twice already! Both times I had to use his service he came within 15 minutes, fair price and very nice! I even saved his number in case I stay locked outside a third time!

Ryan did a fantastic job as always, coming out at short notice to change my locks. His services are professional, swift and reasonably priced. Will not hesitate to use again.

I called City of London Locksmith out to deal with a problem lock on my front door, talked him through the problem and he very generously said 'I think all your need is to spray WD40 in the lock', which I did and the lock works perfectly. This locksmith did himself out of a job by giving me free advice that worked, saying that he did not feel right coming out and charging me for a simple job. A huge thankyou. Graham, E1W

Ryan has looked after our estate (69 residential flats) for a few years now, he is always prompt to attend to any requests for action in doors or postboxes and comes fully prepared for all eventualities. Highly recommended

Spent several hours on a Monday morning looking for my car keys to no avail. Couldn’t risk not getting to work again so contacted auto locksmith. Got in touch very quickly, arrived within 45mins as stated and managed to produce a replacement car key in about the same time. Life is now back on track as a result of a quick service. Very polite and professional. Not intending to lose a key ever again but would use the service again if I did.

Excellent service, super commination with technician, speedy fast turn around ,most definitely will share my experience and recommend your services within my circle of friends..thank you once again ...

Can't thank the key engineer enough. Very polite, turned up on time. Vtech Civic (a very old one). Saved my hassles by creating a new key fob and key. Made a new key in extremely reasonable time. Very mobile and came to the house. Good value for money. Thank you for your service. Definitely recommend to use them rather than chasing completely the wrong technicians to save 20 or 30 pounds

I had a very professional experience and was really impressed by the speedy service. I was only getting a spare key, but I was shocked by how friendly and how quick the service was - I can only imagine the relief that UK Auto Locksmith Ltd provides in circumstances where a key is lost. Highly recommend this service!

I needed the whole lock changed so it was quite expensive, but the technician came out really quickly, did a great job super efficiently, and the customer service from the ladies I spoke to on the phone was really amazing, they all deserve a raise - so kind. Thank you!

My patio door lock broke, and they replaced it fast. The technician was skilled and made sure it was secure. Very happy!
