All Testimonials

"Returning from holiday, realised that we'd mislaid our car keys. Alistair came round the following day and within 30 mins had gained access to the car, cut two keys and completed the programming. Very impressive, and a nice guy too. Throughly recommended."

"Great communication, knows what he’s doing! So approachable, takes the stress out of losing keys or keys not working. Alistair is mobile and came to me to fix an issue with electronic keycard when my car wouldn’t start. Prices are so reasonable. Highly recommended."

"Lost my only van key, Alistair came to my house got into the van, cut and programmed 2 new keys for me. Cost very competitive and customer service spot on. I would recommend Alistair and Burgh Locksmiths without hesitation…"

"Excellent service. Had a new van key made on-site. Cheaper than competition, arrived ahead of time and finished the job quickly. Couldn't have been better."

"Once again, outstanding service from Burgh Locks. Friendly and efficient, Alistair helped me out of a real hole with lost car key fobs. Felt I could trust his company in a way I couldn't trust my car main dealer. Thankyou"

"Very friendly and efficient service from Alistair. His knowledge is second to none and answered all my questions with no issue. Was kind enough to do a home visit (at no extra cost to what was quoted through messages) and had a new key for my car and working in about 15 minutes upon arrival. Reasonable price, friendly guy, and good service - can’t go wrong for any of your key needs!"

"ABSOLUTE BRILLIANT SERVICE from Alistair! Came to my address, cut and programmed a new key for my car in less than 30 minutes! Cant recommend Burgh Locksmith enough! THE BEST IN TOWN 🔥🔥🔥 …"

"Great! Replacement (duplicate) Volkswagen Key and Remote Fob arranged the next day. Much better than the official VW Dealership in Edinburgh who quoted an extortionate price and said it would take 2 hours, and then 14 days for the key to arrive. Alistair did it in about 15-20 mins at a very competitive price. Key works perfectly."

"They arrived quickly and sorted the lock with no problems. Professional, polite, and reasonably priced – I’d definitely recommend them."

"The remote locking key fob on our VW T5 went ping. "It happens all the time." Alister came to us, cut new keys and sprinkled magic dust so that all the vehicle electrickery spoke to all the key electrickery. Alister was cheery, friendly, competent and super helpful. Thank you. Is there a tick box for a Six Star rating? Nick and Hilary."

"Would highly recommend. Needed a new key sorted for my car and it was a really friendly service, worked around my schedule, had the job done very quickly and super affordable"

"Great service. Extremely quick. Can't fault Alistair or his work. Would recommend!"

"Alistair looked after my daughter very well after she locked herself out, he kept in touch and managed to get her in within seconds. We cannot recommend him enough. Thank you!"

"Contacted early this morning to arrange a replacement remote van key and we're all sorted within 4 hours. Would highly recommend!"

"Alistair was a lifesaver, programming two new car key remotes after my son had lost the only key he had for his car. Great service and a genuine, friendly guy. Less than half the price and immeasurably less hassle than going to the car dealer. Couldn't recommend highly enough!"

"Sons car key was faulty. Phoned Alistair who came next day at agreed time. New key supplied in 20 mins. Excellent service. Would highly recommend."

"Amazing company with super nice folk working there. I lost my keys while traveling internationally, but thankfully Burgh Locks were there to help. They drove out to the airport car park and installed two new keys for my car, at a very competitive price! I've had absolutely no bother with the keys or the car, so can't recommend enough!"

"fantastic service came out to the house and made up new fob and key very quick at doing it and all works great.very nice guy thank you Alistair i will recommend you to everyone :-)"

"Alistair was really helpful a few weeks ago when my car would not open. I was uncertain if my breakdown service would be able to help; they were on their way and could not be contacted. Alistair came to my vehicle regardless and offered advice. The breakdown service were successful, but Alistair would not take any payment for his time or fuel. He was so friendly and helpful, I wouldn't hesitate to call him again, thank you!"

"Alistair was great. Answered my initial query promptly, turned up exactly when he said he would and managed to sort me out with replacement car keys in 15 minutes at a price that was considerably cheaper than I'd been quoted elsewhere. Highly recommended."

"Saved the day, what a service, i called as soon as the shop opened and and the appointment was for the following day 1500. That’s a fast response, however even better when I received a call from Alistair the same day and offered his services in the afternoon. 15 mins after arriving the job was completed. Alistair gained access to our car and produced 2 new cut keys and also cancelled out the lost one. Surpassed my expectations. Highly recommend"

"Alistair opened my car with no damage and all for only £45 which was very reasonable. He also went the extra mile helping us ladies remove the car battery and recommending a garage to get a replacement :) Friendly, cheerful man (and dog) who I would recommend to anyone and would use again if I ever found myself in a similar situation. Thanks again."

"Incredible service. We called Alistair to cut us a new spare key for our car. He booked us a slot on his calendar and arrived on the dot. Took our existing key, cut a new spare one in 15 minutes in his van and I paid on his card machine from my front door. Gave me a receipt and off he went. Simply brilliant, and about half the price of any quote we got from RAA, Halfords and Peugeot. Will definitely use him for any locksmith needs from now on. Thanks again, Alistair!"

"I was visiting Edinburgh from London and lost my car keys on a walk. Alistair was able to fit me in the next day, and made me a replacement key, despite considerable difficulties in doing this for my old car, and I was able to get to the Highlands on schedule, the same day. All at a price I thought was very reasonable. Absolutely outstanding service."

"Our son had lost his 2 car keys so a bit of a dilemma. Contacted Alistair at Burgh locks. Extremely helpful and the vehicle was up and running the following day with 2 new keys and remote locking working. This is a first class service and they definitely “do what it says on the tin”. Would recommend this company very highly. Only wanted payment on completion."

"Brilliant service from Alistair. It's one quick phone call to organise a home visit at a time that suited (for no extra cost). We got a new set of car keys for less than a fifth of the price quoted through the car dealer. Will be using again if needed!"

"Excellent customer service from start to finish. Programmed 2 new keys for my car having lost all sets of keys. Came out to my car and the work was carried out in 30 minutes! 5* service."

"Would give 6 stars if I could. Another locksmith made a mistake cutting keys for my van and left me in a real jam. Nobody else wanted to touch it but Alistair diagnosed the problem over the phone and got it sorted in about an hour. Professionalism and service on another level."

"Would highly recommend! Contacted Burgh Locksmiths for a replacement car key, Alistair came out the next day. Very fast and friendly service and at an amazing price (spent less than half of what I was quoted from the AA!)."

"Fantastic service at a fair price. I needed a spare key cut for a Renault and Alistair came to my house and cut/coded a key for me in minutes. Delighted with the customer service and would definitely use again if I need keys cut. Thank you!"
