The uptake of training courses at Lockex provided by the MPL Locksmith Training Academy has delighted both the show organisers and MPL Managing Director Graham Jones.
The Toeing and Heeling masterclass which is also going to include dimple lock picking is fully subscribed which clearly tells a story. Graham takes up that story “We deliver a wide range of courses at our training academy which are always well attended, but the instant uptake on the toeing and heeling course has particularly delighted us and confirms what we thought that there is clearly a need in the market for this particular course”.
“We are really looking forward to Lockex and being able to deliver our courses and we look forward to welcoming the 60 attendees at the time – we will also have some special offers for them for them for signing up which help them further down the line”!
“It is a great time for locksmith training, we can see a real increase in those entering the sector, often looking for new careers after the closure of factories, or after serving in the military or the police and we would encourage anybody interested in getting involved to get in touch with us”.
“We like to think that we do a really 
good job for the people who come to us. Our courses are delivered by time served locksmiths who themselves are out in the field on a day to day basis, ensuring that they remain fully up to speed with all the latest products and techniques needed to be successful”.
“We have also recently been given accredited programme status by City & Guilds to deliver our specialist locksmith training course the uptake of this has been tremendous”.
“The course covers entry into all types of doors – timber, aluminium and PVCu, and covers every kind of lock type on the market from a traditional 
mortice lock to the latest multi-point locking types. It is hands on and is supported by a fully illustrated training manual”.
“We are also able to supply all the tools a locksmith might require, as well as replacement locks and cylinders where the need arises, and most importantly after the course we have an on-going telephone help-line for anybody who has been accredited and wants practical advice when in the field, or support to gain access in a particular situation”.
