Earlier on this year Academy student Thomas took a 5
day NCFE level 4 course in locksmithing. In this guest blog post Thomas talks
about his experiences, skills and knowledge in locksmithing of which he has
gained whilst taking a course at the Keytek™ Locksmith Training Academy.

"After recently completing the Keytek™ Academy course I was very impressed with the extent of the skills demonstrated and aspects of
the industry that are covered within the week.
I came to the academy with little to no knowledge or
skills in locksmithing and carpentry. The techniques shown by the course
trainer were a great starting point and simple enough for me to understand.
The course content itself included techniques that
would be needed for both lock fitting on site and upgrading a customer’s locks to
British Insurance Standards. This demonstrated to me the importance of fitting
parts that will be in compliance with a customer’s home insurance.
The course content covered the fitting of a wide range
of locks, the destructive and non destructive methods of entry including uPVC
mechanisms and wooden doors and how they operate. I left the course feeling
that I could happily start working within the locksmithing industry with a
great overall understanding of the trade, which has helped me to complete jobs
for customers with confidence.
A huge thank you to all of those involved, including
the patience and care taken by the course trainers to ensure everybody received
individual feedback and guidance. In conclusion, I am happy to have passed an
accredited NCFE Level 4 course in locksmithing. After taking this course I feel
confident enough to carry out the skills taught by the Keytek™ Locksmith
Training Academy on the road."
