Why choose Locksmth Training Wales?​
 

​

This is a good question.  When choosing a course look at what is offered on the training, who is running the course, location and price. Many have not moved on with the times and have not kept up with changes in the trade so take your time and ask questions.  The certificate you receive from us on completion of your training is recognised within the locksmith industry, allowing you to get trade accounts with some of the biggest trade suppliers in the UK .
​​
Can I bring my own locks?
Yes you can bring any locks with you to the course,  and we will show  "you"  how to open them along with many other british standard locks at the course hall.
​
​Will I be a qualified locksmith on completion of the course?
 
​​​

 

 

In the UK there are no recognised locksmith qualifications and  don't be fooled by any company offering such a thing. You are paying good money to learn how to pick and decode locks not be given a "qualification" just for turning up. Choose a course that offers you real world locksmith skills. Our certificate will get you trade accounts with all the biggest suppliers in the UK
What about accommodation?
​
There are many B&Bs and hotels to choose from about 5 minutes drive from the the training hall​.  We can provide details if required but most people run the training over 1 longer day so will not have to stay.
