Chris is nothing short of a legend! Attended an emergency lock situation in 20 minutes and was able to fix the lock, rather than replace it. Very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend! More...

Arrived within 10 minutes of me calling, this was an emergency as I’m a childminder. He was quick, efficient and cleaned up after himself. I felt very comfortable having Chris in our home where my mindees are, knowing he had a DBS was also a benefit. Great job all round, 100% recommend. More...

I locked myself out of the house at 7am in the morning on the way to work. Chris responded promptly and was able to gain access to my house. On the plus side also if you’re an NHS worker Chris provides 10% discount! Definitely recommend and definitely affordable rates even without the discount . Thank you Chris! More...

We discovered that the property agent had given us a faulty key, and we needed to resolve the issue urgently. Templar Locksmiths responded promptly, even on a Saturday morning, and had a new lock installed by the afternoon. The service was fast, efficient, and professional. We plan to have them work on other locks and doors . Highly Recommend. More...

Purrfect Paws Cat Sitting
Chris provided me with such an excellent service today that I had to leave a review. I was out cat sitting and went to go and open one of the front doors when the key I used snapped in the lock and got jammed. I panicked as the door wouldn't open and there was no other way to get in apart from the back door which I couldnt open. I contacted Chris as soon as I could to see if he was available and within the hour of contacting he had managed to help me gain access again and make the front door secure. 100% recommend to anyone for a speedy and great service 🙂 More...

Chris was amazing! He got my patio/ sliding double doors unlocked (broken barrell)after months and several attempts by other locksmiths who gave up and one even suggested we get new doors! Not only did he manage to get them unlocked with minimal disruption, he replaced with a new lock system which is much easier to use. Would highly recommend him. Chris is very reliable and didn’t give up where as others had. Would certainly use his services again. More...

Time is of the essence when you need a good locksmith. Chris breaks the mold, completely reliable and no fuss. What impressed me most about the way Chris approaches his work is that quality matters, even if that means he needs to spend longer to complete a fixed price job.

What do you love most about your job?
Helping people when they need to get back into there home is the best part
What inspired you to start your own business?
As well as a qualified locksmith I'm a also a firefighter, where my interest for becoming a locksmith started.
I've lost count of the amount of times I have had to gain entry to a house in an emergency situation. We are trained to gain entry by any means necessary, sometimes this can result with a damaged door which then needs to be boarded up.
I have now gained city and guilds qualifications and also a diploma in locksmithing.
So as well as helping you get back into your property or upgrading locks making your home secure I will be more then happy to discuss fire safety such as smoke alarm locations or escape routes.
Helping you feel completely safe in your own home.
Why should our clients choose you?
I'm an honest, hardworking guy who has integrity at heart. I won't upsell or do anything that doesn't need to be done
