Very pleased with the service I had this week from Mid Beds Locksmiths. I called them at 9, they arrived dead on 11 as agreed, terry listened to my description of the problem, dismantled the mechanism, identified the issue, fixed it, serviced the lock and gave me some useful advice. And a very reasonable cost too. Very satisfied customer.
