Our verdict

Our judgement: a reasonable all-rounder for domestic and vehicle-adjacent lock work, with a matching company record behind it. The site tells you little about money or cover. Before booking, agree the attendance fee, parts price and VAT in writing [1].

Industry qualifications

Can't be sourced. We looked at the issuing registers, the business's own website and platforms such as Checkatrade and Which? Trusted Traders and found no scheme membership or registration to record.

Ratings on other sites

Recorded with source, scale, count and the date read. These are not our own ratings.

Strengths

  • You get a broad service list from a Halesfield base: lockouts, van locks, safes, access control and car keys, with a 24-hour call-out promise and direct contact to the locksmith [1].

  • The company record is clean and matching: SHROPSHIRE LOCK AND KEY LTD active since January 2021 at the same Halesfield address, with 4.9 from 98 Google reviews seen 3 September 2026 [2][3].

Limitations

  • The site is thin on specifics: no prices, no rates, no insurance details and no trading history beyond general experience claims [1].

  • With 98 reviews behind a 4.9 rating the record is good but smaller than the round's most-reviewed firms [3].
