GuardsLock Ltd is currently looking to build a trusted network of subcontract locksmiths across London and Buckinghamshire

As our customer base continues to grow, we're looking for reliable, professional locksmiths to carry out both emergency call-outs and pre-booked jobs. Whether you're looking to fill gaps in your diary or take on regular additional work, we'd love to hear from you.

Having completed the UKLA training myself, I know the quality of the engineers you train. That's exactly why I wanted to offer this opportunity exclusively to UKLA members. I'm looking for locksmiths who take pride in their work, communicate well with customers and want to build a long-term working relationship.
If you're interested in becoming part of the GuardsLock subcontractor network, or you'd simply like to find out more, please get in touch.

One of our UK Locksmiths Association members is expanding his business and looking for other existing members to help him.

This is from Jonas and you if you are interested please contact him directly:

“I just wanted to reach out as we’re currently expanding our network of trusted locksmiths across the UK to support some national brands we’re now working with.

We’re on the lookout for solid, reliable subbies (both new and experienced) who take pride in their work and want consistent opportunities coming through.

If you’re happy to share this with members, I’d really appreciate it, and of course, anyone interested can get in touch with me directly.

The work will be helping us to cover new contracts with brands such as NEXT and Costa Coffee, as well as Smyths Toys, TG Jones and Wetherspoons. It would be great if other UKLA members would like to join us and take on some of this work. UKLA locksmiths will always be prioritised for jobs over anyone else.

Potential subbies can find out more and check us out at www.jonaskinglocksmiths.com/subcontractors or they can pop me an email at [email protected]

Thanks as always for your support,
Jonas 😃

Best regards

🔑 UKLA Trained, Now Building Something Different – Meet Lady Kamalock Locksmith & Security (Melanie)

Some locksmiths are brilliant with tools – but the business side? That's where it gets tricky. Sound familiar?

Meet Melanie. She trained with UKLA a few years ago, learning the trade and building a solid foundation in UK locksmith standards. Life then took her to Trinidad, where she's currently based.

Recently, Melanie faced a difficult time – the loss of her mum, and time spent navigating probate. In the midst of that, she channelled her energy into building something meaningful: the UK Expat Locksmith Directory.

The Problem She Saw

Locksmiths often pay for leads – sometimes £10, £20, even £50 – only to find the lead goes nowhere. Wrong job, wrong area, or just a dud. You pay, you lose, you learn nothing.

Meanwhile, UK expats abroad struggle to find locksmiths they can trust. Property managers need reliable pros. Airbnb hosts need someone who understands rental turnover.

Two problems. One solution.

The UK Expat Locksmith Directory

A platform connecting UK expats, property managers, and Airbnb hosts with trusted, vetted locksmiths worldwide.

No paying for dud leads. Locksmiths get:

· A professional profile that works for them
· Visibility with expats who actually need their services
· Optional commission-based jobs – you only pay when you win

Why UKLA Is Supporting This

UK expats need locksmiths they can trust. UKLA-trained locksmiths are exactly that. This directory puts them front and centre.

What UKLA members get:

✅ Free 12-month premium listing (usually £129/year)
✅ "UKLA Trained" badge on your profile
✅ Visibility with expats who specifically value UK standards
✅ No cost, no obligation – just genuine opportunity
✅ Optional: commission jobs (10–20%) – you only pay when you win

Whether you're based in the UK or working abroad, established or just starting out this is your chance to reach a niche audience that needs exactly what you offer – without wasting money on leads that go nowhere.

👉 DM Melanie Mahabir

Melanie, we're proud of you – and proud to support this. Turning a difficult season into something that helps other locksmiths? That's what community is about. 👏

***THIS HAS NOW BEEN TAKEN AWAY AND NO LONGER AVAILABLE***

Our beloved and well used Cyclone key cutting machine that we have had since 2002 has finally given up the ghost and has decided to retire itself

We are replacing it with a new one one and have taken the cutters and other parts from it but if anyone wants this machine then you can come and collect it from us for FREE.

The motor is still working but it has tripped our electrics when turning it on.

It has cut thousands upon thousands of keys in our training centre.

You may even be able to repair it or use any spares from it.
