Training for Locksmith In Norwich

My Training to become a Locksmith in Norwich

So what qualifies me to be a locksmith in Norwich. In fact what qualifies anyone to be a locksmith in Norwich? There are no required qualifications to trade as a locksmith in Norwich or anywhere in the country to be precise. You can of course join organizations such as the Master Locksmith Association but even if you use a company that is registered as an MLA member this doesn't mean the locksmith that turns up to do the work is a Master Locksmith. In fact there only needs to be one member and the company can advertise as an MLA approved company. I even found a local locksmith in Norwich advertising he was a member of an organisation that I had never heard of, so after a bit of digging around I found out to become a member of this association you just clicked a few boxes on a web page and paid your money, there you are a member of an association. Obviously certain associations require more than this, the MLA has quite a stringent exam process which consists of four parts, a written exam(multiple choice), a lock fitting exam, a key making exam and a lock opening exam. They are probably the most recognised organisation you could join.
You can actually take a course before you sit the exam which as I understand gives you all the information to pass the tests. So is this a realistic exam or just a money making scheme? What about the training to become a Locksmith in Norwich or elsewhere in the country. Well you can attend a one day course and the next day trade as a locksmith in Norwich or even just watch a few videos on You Tube and start trading as a locksmith in Norwich. You could attend a couple of days training , tick a few boxes and pay your money and your a fully trained and accredited locksmith in Norwich in fact you don't even need to have a CRB check. Would you want this type of locksmith working on your door or inside your property.

So back to the original question, what qualifies me to work as a locksmith in Norwich on or in your property. Well I trained under one of the most experienced locksmith in Bristol who was and still is a member of the MLA. Every company I have worked in has been regulated by the MLA or ALOA (Associated Locksmiths Of  America) I worked out in America for just under 4 years to improve my combination lock opening skills. Currently I am not a member of any organisation, but after 24 years in the industry I'm better qualified than some of the guys out there. So when you have a lock to your home, office, safe or any other type of locking mechanism. Call the experienced Locksmith in Norwich.
