Our Skills

A Locksmith You can trust us to keep your belongings safe

Police, insurance companies and IMA Locksmiths recommend changing your new home locks for a good reason. Most insurance companies won’t honour their policy if there are no means of forced entry. You never know who has an old set of keys for your new home and you can change/upgrade to British standard insurance approved locks at the same time, keeping you safe.

Absolutely fantastic service, I cannot recommend Richard highly enough. The service provided was efficient, professional and well priced. Richard stayed in communication from the first visit when he did an emergency swap of the lock through to completion of the works, the customer service was excellent. I never write reviews but I am so impressed with the service I received, I genuinely want to tell others about it.
Karren S - SO30 Postcode
Richard was excellent and very affordable considering the emergency work involved and the cost of the part. I was actually locked in my flat when the door lock gearbox broke. Richard was at my home within 30 minutes and rescued me from a scary situation fairly late at night after I returned home from a late shift at the hospital. Absolutely amazing job.
John R - SO15 Postcode
I had recently moved into a new property and I needed my locks changed. After getting a few quotes I decided to go with IMA Locksmith as they were cost effective and were able to come a fit new locks within 30 to 40 minutes. Richard gave me lots of information about the locks before I choose which ones I wanted. I recommend using IMA locksmith.
Krupa P - SO14 Postcode
Arrived quickly, gained entry (avoiding any damage), resolved and explained the issue, and finally provided me with advice, which ultimately saved us money. I would recommend him to friends and family if they ever needed a locksmith.

REPLACING PUSH BUTTON LOCK........ Following the advise from a recent visit from Richard, we got him back around to replace a faulty push button lock. Richard was very good at setting expectations with delivery times due to the bank holiday and he was able to complete the job to a high standard without us being around due to the nature of our work.
Ben HPost Code SO31
OPENED TWO LOCKED CONSERVATORY DOORS We had two conservatory doors that we have been unable to open since moving in as no keys were left by the previous owners. I contacted Richard at IMA Locksmiths and he was very quick to come and investigate the doors. Richard is friendly & extremely professional

Richard contacted me within 10 minutes of my request. He visited the following day to see what the issue was and how he could help.

We have used Richard for our locks a couple of times now, when we moved into our new bungalow he came and changed all of our locks very quickly and did a fabulous job. Hence when our patio door started to play up some four years later we called him and he came very quickly and sorted it out. Very knowledgeable, efficient and nothing is too much trouble. Very reasonably priced and a nice chap as well. I would thoroughly recommend Richard

DOOR UNLOCK.....IMA Locksmith did an amazing job with getting my door unlocked, even with the most complex of locking systems, several methods of non-destructive entry were attempted.

Ian McPost Code SO14
Richard was such a gentleman, courteous and polite. Had new locks onto existing front wooden door; BS night latch and 5 lever mortice. Very clear communication and competitive pricing. He is a real expert in his trade and therefore we felt very happy for him to work on our property.
Rezual MPost Code SO17
Richard from IMA Locksmith provided outstanding service. He assessed our rear door lock and offered two clear options—no jargon, no upselling, just honest advice. Out of five tradespeople contacted via Checkatrade, Richard stood out by leaving a voicemail, which set him apart. He arrived promptly, tried a part he had in his van, and when it wasn’t a perfect fit, he ordered the exact one and planned a follow-up visit. True to his word, he returned the next day on time and completed the fix in under 30 minutes. Professional, efficient, and highly recommended!
Robert HPost Code SO50
Richard came straightaway, He was professional and friendly. He got the door open without damage in less than a minute. I then asked how much it would be to change the lock and give us fresh keys and for a good price he did it there and then. Couldn't fault the service at all. If only all locksmiths were like Ima Locksmith! Would use them again any time.
Duncan HPost Code SO53
