Had Aaron booked in today as my
Immobiliser had gone on my car. Arrived promptly and sorted the issue very quickly. Would recommend.Very reasonable. Sorted my Audi lost key fob out in 30mins. Jay was awesome to deal with. Defo be back. Cheers.Really happy with the service, came at a time that suited me, was done quicker than I expected, will definitely use Arron again, thank youExcellent in all ways, turned up same day on the exact time given, very professional. Highly recommended!Excellent service. Both our car keys stopped working (tried changing the batteries multiple times with no luck) and Aaron came out to sort it quickly. Very friendly and much cheaper than Timpsons would have been.Couldn’t believe how fast he arrived — genuinely came out to me so quickly that I barely had time to panic. I called Locks on Sea Locksmiths expecting to be stuck for ages, but he was at my door within 20 minutes, calm, friendly, and ready to sort everything out.
From start to finish, the service was honestly faultless. He got my door open with absolutely no damage, which I was so relieved about. You can tell he knows exactly what he’s doing — proper professional, efficient, and clearly experienced.
The price was great, especially considering how fast and smooth the whole thing was. No messing around, no hidden charges, just solid, honest work. And on top of that, he was genuinely a good guy to deal with — polite, easy to talk to, and even smelt nice too 😂 Little things like that actually make the experience so much better when you’re stressed out.
Honestly, he was a saviour in a moment when I really needed someone reliable. If you ever end up locked out or in any kind of locksmith situation, I’d recommend Locks on Sea Locksmiths without hesitation. Top-tier service from a top-tier guy.Aaron was excellent! Really helpful before he came over and was able to come the same week.
Sorted our lock, replaced a new locker and alignment.

If you need some quick assistance, here are a few common industry queries we get frequently asked.
Can you open my front door without damaging the lock?
Yes, ensuring minimal damage to your Southend-on-Sea property is our top priority. We always endeavour to use non-destructive entry techniques, which protect your existing lock and door wherever possible.
Should i replace my locks when moving into a new home?
Absolutely. You never know how many old keys are still in circulation. A new lock installation ensures full control over who can access your Southend-on-Sea property. We offer a qualified lock repair & replacement service, tailored to your security requirements.
What types of residential locks do you install?
We install British Standard locks, smart locks, Yale night latches, mortice locks, UPVC multi-point locks, and more – all suited to modern home security.
How often should i upgrade my home locks?
Most homeowners upgrade every 5-10 years, or sooner if insurance requirements change, there has been an attempted break-in, or the lock starts showing wear. We offer a comprehensive range of lock repair and replacement services for residential, internal and external security requirements.
