last resort preferring to use non destructive entry methods at all

number, not a Free phone, or just a Mobile number. Any trustworthy Macclesfield Locksmith will have a address visible on all stationary and adverts. At

Be careful when choosing a
locksmiths in Cheshire from a phone book directory, such as Yellow pages or Thompson, as they encourage misleading entries. They don't care that the public are mislead, so long as they get their money! (remember big adds with multiple
locations & engineers will mean a national call centre, charging
very High hourly rates plus vat, before the problem has even be
diagnosed the meter is ticking, (someone has to pay the thousands of
pounds it cost to place these national adds, so make sure its not you).
Better is the Buy With Confidence Scheme - it's run by Trading Standards so its non biased and more trustworthy.
