How to choose a locksmith in Tower Hamlets
- Ask for the full price before the locksmith sets off, including call-out and VAT.
- Look for Master Locksmiths Association (MLA) membership.
- Choose British Standard BS3621 locks, which most home insurers require.
- Be wary of very low advertised prices that increase on arrival.
Checks and regulation: There is no legal licence for locksmiths in the UK, so MLA membership and reviews are the best guide.
