What Others Say

Mr Barbour, Bolton


"Just a short note to thank you for the excellent advice and service you provided today after I managed to lose my front door key. After looking around for a locksmith, you were the only ones who are recognised by so many different locksmith organisations that it gave me confidence to contact you. And I wasn't disappointed. There was a degree of urgency as I was due to go away the following day and wanted to ensure that my property was fully secure. I would have no hesitation in using your services again should the need arise and would definitely recommend you to anyone requiring a dependable, reliable and efficient locksmith. I am so grateful for the speed in which you responded to my request for assistance."

Mrs C Sutcliffe


Thank you so much for the prompt, honest and professional service we received from your company. Lee was brilliant. First,  was the courteous call to say he was running late. On arrival he proceeded to cover his shoes before entering the property. Although unable to solve the problem completely, he managed to alter things sufficiently to get  the door to lock, clearing all mess before he left. He explained he was going to investigate other possibilities to try and solve the problem with door and would be in touch. We received a phone call a few days later, when it was explained that Authorized Access could not solve the problem and unfortunately a new door would be required, and as you could not solve the problem to your satisfaction there would be no charge. What a refreshing change not to have been given a false diagnosis in order to make money. We would certainly  have no hesitation in recommending your services in the future. Thank you

Dr A C Haslam.


I have had such outstanding service from your shop in Bury that I felt compelled to write. This “info” email address is the only one on your website, so please pass this to the company owner / manager. I found you via www.locksmiths.co.uk and from the very start have dealt with Dave (Bury shop) who has just been fantastic; nothing has been too much trouble and he really instills great confidence. He responds to calls and emails instantly. He explained everything and the whole process was so easy to me, which was great as before hand I had absolutely no knowledge of locks and was quite daunted - in the end I have been able to install all the locks myself and have subsequently ended up buying many more additional locks and handles with Dave’s guidance for all my other doors. I have been left very greatly impressed and will heartily recommend your company (and Dave especially) to all. Many thanks, and keep up the outstanding work!

“We have been using Authorized Access for our key requirements at our business centre since 2009. They are always professional, friendly, cost effective and very helpful. In the main our requirement is for extra keys but they also do lock fitting for us and on the odd occasion have managed to gain access for us when we have a damaged key. Lee is always thorough and speedy, very polite and a tidy worker. Our main contact is Dave, he is very knowledgeable and if we have any queries he is always able to point us in the right direction.”

“We have been using Authorized Access for about 14 years for most of our locks and security needs. In that time we have found them to be very reliable and prompt with their services. They have offered appropriate advice and assistance with sourcing new or more beneficial items as required. We have no hesitation in recommending their company to others looking to source security related items and advice. We have been very happy with their professionalism and would anticipate using them for the foreseeable future.”
