Locksmith Shop

Gavin was brilliant on setting up our new card machine. No monthly fees, low rates and very easy to use. Money in your account first thing in the morning. So reliable, any problems we can give Gavin a WhatsApp message and he’s always there to help.. Would recommend this machine as one of the best we’ve had to date..

Top service from Gavin and Shift 4

We have had several card readers through Gavin and his service and advice has always been spot on.
I can thoroughly recommend not only the Shift 4 but also Gavin himself and will continue to deal with him in the future
