LockFit Shropshire Locksmiths in short

LockFit Shropshire Locksmiths is a Telford locksmith run by Lee Williams, covering lock-outs, repairs and lock changes for homes and businesses on a round-the-clock call-out. What sets LockFit apart in our review is the promise of no call-out charge with a fixed price agreed before work starts, plus a stated fast response across Telford, Shrewsbury, Wellington, Ironbridge and Bridgnorth. A live limited company sits behind the name.

Customer reviews form the largest bank in this round, with a headline Google rating of five stars drawn from well over one hundred reviews. The site also says the business is insured and DBS checked. What counts against it is thin paperwork: no named trade accreditations and no published price list. Our verdict is that it suits anyone locked out or changing locks who wants the price fixed first.
