The Best Locksmiths in Portchester, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Mark is a true expert and professional. He has re-aligned doors for us, adjusted a door & locking mechanism plus offered some very good security and maintenance advice. He is 100% trustworthy, reliable and a pleasure to have in the house. I have no hesitation in recommending him for any door, window, lock related issues.

Absolutely cannot recommend Mark enough. One of our main display windows at the front of the shop had blown so Mark was entailed with replacing it for us. Communication from him was excellent and he accomodated us by working around the shop's opening times. He was also kind enough to move a large heavy planter we have outside the shop for me! He worked swiftly and tidily. I now have him bookmarked should I need his services in the future. The only downside is that he left the newly replaced window so sparkling clean it showed up how grubby all the others were and I had to get out with my tub of windowleen.

Marks was great at replacing 3 windows at my property as well as replacing the hinge on a large opening window. He was understanding of my odd schedule and worked with it to fit it in the work. All done in a timely manner and with a smile. Will definitely call again when I need further works doing!

Absolutely great experience. We had two double glazed units fitted, one including a cat flap. Mark priced up the work via email before and stuck to his estimate, had the work completed as fast as possible, and ensured a great fit and a great look.

Needed some spare keys cutting at very short notice for a customer. Steve attended within 15 minutes to assist. Would highly recommend for all your key cutting needs. Reliable and quick service.

After thinking I had got an ignition problem fixed at a large garage. It was not. I was stuck in a Tesco car park. I called Steve out from Auto locksmith. He came out to me as soon as he could, understood what the problem was and although he had to order me a part he got me up and running again as quick as he could. He kept me informed and was super helpful and friendly.

Amazing service, came out the same day and kept me updated with expected arrival time via text. Fixed my key fob, retrieved a broken key from the lock and cut new keys. Would highly recommend.

Great experience today with Auto Locksmith. I bought a new second hand car yesterday and wanted a remote fob for it. AL came out, checked if it was possible and it was not. Instead he cut me a second key and programmed it. Super quick same-day service! Really nice guy.

Excellent service, price was very good. I would recommend to anyone:

Chris was really quick and polite, gave us 5 keys also compared to 3, would highly recommend and would definitely use again

Fixed my issue very quickly, a lovely guy and reasonably priced too! 10/10 recommend and will use again if required

Chris replaced the locks on our new house - he came on time and completed it really quickly. He was lovely and provided extra reassurance that it was a good quality door. New lock came with 5 keys which is really helpful and it’s much smoother than the original. Would definitely use again should we need to. Thank you!

Very prompt and reliable service. My daughter was locked inside her flat at 7:45am. Within in 15 minutes of my call she was be set free. I really appreciated the quick response and would definitely use you again.

Fantastic service. Locked myself out of house, had entry back into property all within 30mins from call at an excellent price. Thank you.

I managed to lock myself in a shed when the lock broke and I had to unscrew the whole lock and dismantle it so that I could get out. I randomly chose a local locksmith from google and someone was with me within 20 minutes. He worked quickly and was very professional and polite throughout the whole process. I was very pleased with my choice of Now Fareham Locksmith

Had a very positive experience with this guy, he came out with in 20 minutes and took less than a minute to open the door, no call out fee, thought it was going to cost a fortune, but all in £65 a bargain when we were in crisis! And also a lovely guy!

Excellent service from Luke, rapid response to my enquiry by email, knowledgeable advice offered and fitted hook locks and side door bracket to my transit within a few days of my original enquiry. I can highly recommend.

Luke was brilliant from start to finish, very professional. And complete a very tidy install to our company vehicle to add more security. Thanks Luke!

Very happy with Luke's work and general "sound bloke" vibe. The job was efficiently and expertly carried out with no drama outside my house. Would certainly recommend.

What a great find. If you want to be treated like a valued customer then I'd recommend Amberley Security. Good communication and did what they said they'd do and I was kept informed by their automated texts. Small changes accommodated during installation without fuss. Quality wired CCTV system , neat and tidy job.

We called into Amberley security as we had a problem with one of our external doors not locking properly. They came out the same day, within 3 hours in fact and fixed the problem for us. Highly recommended

Extremely efficient and effective service. Thanks to you drilling out the lock on the steering wheel disklok the old car was collected today. It did indeed move when they winched and steered it. Result!

Front door lock went suddenly...thought if Amberley Security immediately. Rang them and the gentleman was very polite and understanding..my lock was repaired within a few hours of ringing...the engineer was very polite and payment was very easy. I was also sent confirmation of the job, time it was to be carried out and a copy invoice. What a wonderful company to have on your doorstep. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Eddie came out to our home at short notice to fix a door lock with a snapped key. He assessed the lock was done, replaced said lock and also fixed a broken window lock as a bonus, all at a reasonable price. Also shared useful information while doing the job in a friendly approachable manner. Highly recommended.

Contacted Eddie to replace a lock. He responded by email very quickly and was able to come out at quite short notice. He replaced the lock within minutes, and also helped fix an issue with another door in the house and gave me advice. Very helpful, friendly and efficient service! Thanks Eddie, will definitely use your services again if needed in the future!

I was really happy with the work done by Eddie. He was punctual, knowledgeable and efficient. This was to fix something that has been an issue for a while and he fixed it really well; checked and adjusted it to ensure it was properly dealt with. Highly recommended.

Super! The locksmith arrived at our house within an hour. He successfully opened our front door, which had a tough titanium lock, without causing any damage to our door/property. He accepted payment by card and emailed me a PDF invoice. Additionally, he was very cooperative in processing a refund for costs passed on to a third party. Communication with him was also excellent, and I highly recommend his services!

Very professional, knowledgeable and friendly.

I called these guys this morning and Steve helped me with a door lock issue over the phone. His phone manner was attentive and I am extremely grateful for his advice. I have fixed the issue.

Amazing Service today. Very helpful and toke the time to make sure i had the right item. Even though i had no idea. We need more people like them. Definitely recommend using.

One of the best service in the area. Guys were very helpful and give lots of tips for the security of the van. I will definitely use them in the future.

Amazing service and turnaround on a very technical key that we needed cutting. Perfect job done in double quick time. Very sensibly priced. Nice team of guys, could not do enough for us.

Amazing customer service! I was locked out very late at night and Tony, our engineer was with us super quick. He was so friendly and really did everything he could to help us. Would definitely recommend and will be using again if I’m stupid enough to lock myself out again (:

I needed a reliable local locksmith to sort a problem with my UPVC back door. After trying to fix it myself I realized the problem needed more skills than I had as internal mechanisms within the door were broken. A quick call to ALS soon had an appointment the following day and after 1 and a half hours work, I had a new system installed and a door that once again locked and worked properly. Very professional service.

I must apologise for the delay in posting a review as promised. I needed a key safe for my mother who had recently had a stroke. Not only was Mark very knowledgeable and helpful, but ensured I got a secure key-safe, cut my new keys and cut me a great deal. I felt that the professionalism and customer service was exceptional. Thank you so much.

Phil C. 6 reviews Rated 5 out of 5 stars Great Local Locksmith Darren attended on Tuesday 10.9.24 at an arranged time. He was Polite and Professional. We discussed what would be suitable as an extra door lock. He mentioned a few locks and the one we agreed on was to be solid lock fitted where I wanted. Darren worked out the price (and gave me the option of purchasing the lock myself), I was happy for him to fit and supply at a date and time convenient to us both. Darren attended at my address today at the agreed time. He explained the workings of the new lock (with 3 keys) and answered my questions honestly. He cleaned up afterwards. I would certainly recommend Darren as a Professional who does his job thoroughly and with pride, he is polite and engaging in conversation. He wrote out a receipt for the work done and told me if there were any issues to call him. I am very pleased with the work done. Thanks.

Great service. Door locking mechanism had failed. Darren replaced it. Fast efficient service. Thank you so much.

So it’s not just doors and windows that keeps Darren busy. He has just fitted a replacement “patio door” lock to our boat based in the Solent area. This lock had caused all sorts of trouble for the various marine engineers and assorted “skilled” friends. Nothing in the marine world is straightforward and we looked for Darren’s assistance after seeing many positive recommendations from “Voices for Portchester”. After 20 minutes and a few “ah ha” moments the lock was fitted and working. Cue a sigh of relief and a huge smile from me. Credit where credit is due, I got a call before he arrived bang on time and the job was completed promptly and professionally. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and effective locksmith.

Darren has been extremely helpful attending to an issue with my front door which needed some adjustment after it had dropped on one side. He also replaced the window gaskets / seals on my bi-fold doors. Darren was prompt, very reliable, and professional. I would totally use him again for all my door, locks and window issues. I recommend him highly. He's also one of life's really nice guys. Thanks Darren for all your help.
