Who We Are

Meet Our Managing Director

The Managing Director of The Skeleton Key Locksmiths & Security is a fully qualified locksmith who started working in the trade over 25 years ago. He 'cut his teeth' in the industry starting as an apprentice in 1992 under the expert tutelage of the late John Carter, who established Tamworth's first modern day locksmith business in 1972.

After a decade in the locksmith industry, TSK's Managing Director had to cease working as a full-time locksmith—a trade he loved—because of family commitments. Though not working as a full-time locksmith, he always kept abreast of changes in the locksmith industry, especially regarding his specialist areas of residential and commercial locksmithing as well as opening, servicing and repairing of all types of safes.

He kept his hands on the tools through helping friends, family and employers with odd jobs, offering security advice as required, repairing locks and doors in addition to restoring vintage locks as part of his hobbies.

Regarding quality management the adage of 'Do it once' and 'Do it well’ was instilled in him as an apprentice. His belief in this adage is something that he still carries with him today and throughout his working career as a tradesperson through to a WHSE practitioner and then business owner.
