Testimonials.

“Dear Mark & Team,

 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the training course that you delivered to me at Advanced Locksmiths in Feb 08. After Previously attending courses with other locksmith training companies I can definitely say that Advanced not only offered much better value for money, but the style of teaching and hands on tutoring really allowed me to fully understand each training objective.

 

The experience and enthusiasm which you passed on to me has given me huge confidence to tackle ‘real world’ locksmith tasks and problems. Your ongoing support is more than appreciated too. I would recommend you to anyone looking to get into the industry regardless of previous experience.”

 

Regards

Phil Hall

Locksmith Training Course (September 05).

 

 "After completing the one week course I can honestly say that as a Locksmith I couldn't of been given a better start to my new career. Although initially daunted by the thought of packing so much into one week the tutor was an expert in putting the student at ease and went through every aspect at the students pace to maximize the required skill. Everything a new Locksmith needs to know to help start them off in the profession is covered and the knowledge that help is just a phone call away day or night is reassuring. Needless to say I would thoroughly recommend this course to any aspiring would be Locksmith"

Locksmith training December 2005

 

I attended a 5 day locksmith training course in mid December 2005, with Mark Aldred being the instructor at Advanced Locksmiths, prior meeting Mark I had no locksmith experience or training.

 

I found Mark to be patient and the training methods which he used easy to understand

A training /reference manual were supplied at the time which I still refer to (mortice lock information).

 

On 01/01/2006 I started Lockfast northeast ltd, on occasions I would need advice or help when carrying out work, for this I would contact Mark and he would give me the information / help that I needed to complete the job / task.

 

Knowing that I can phone mark for help and advice, is very helpful, especially during the early period of trading.

 

Now over 2 years later Lockfast northeast ltd is still trading and growing, on occasions I find myself in need of information on locks which I am working on, and I contact Mark for his advice, which he always gives.

Locksmith Training Course March 2007

 

I find Mark’s course to be very useful as I am just starting out in the domestic locksmith business, I was taught the basics thoroughly and I am progressing well thanks to what I learned whilst I was with Mark.

 

The ability to phone Mark if I have any problems is one of the best reassurances you can have, I have even phoned when I have been on site and he has delivered every time.

 

I would have no hesitation in recommending this personal 1-2-1 course to anyone. Excellent what more can I say.

Locksmith Training Course July 2008

 

"After completing the one week course in mid July 08 ran by “Advanced Locksmiths” I can honestly say that as a novice locksmith I couldn't have been given a better start to my new career. I had been working in the industry for approx 4 months with an already pre-existing security centre before I went onto the course and in my opinion I knew absolutely nothing in respect of the correct entry techniques or drilling points. Under the EXPERT guidance and PATIENT tutoring of Mark Aldred (Advanced Locksmiths) I was effortlessly integrated into the locksmith techniques and tricks of the trade. I firmly believe that without the possibility of partaking in this course I would still be fumbling and above all GUESSING the correct methods or locations to attack whilst on the customer’s doorstep.

 

Upon completion I was left in no doubt what-so-ever about the level of SELF BELIEF that had been steadily and fluently impregnated into my own mind. This was proven as soon as I returned home when after months of trying WITHOUT SUCCESS I unlocked the dreaded, persistently un-lockable, offending padlock from my shed and sat down with the wife for a brew on the garden table and CRACKED IT, EFFORTLESSLY & IN SECONDS!!!! The faith was proven and proven and proven time and time again that night (albeit with cracks of “Anorak” from the wife and kids), but hey it proves the lessons are learnt and the tactic of Mark’s courses are CORRECT. Now the learning on site begins and with the aid of Mark should I need it over the phone (anytime) I know I can’t fail?  

 

I would have no hesitation in offering Mark’s service for any new inspiring locksmith’s and can 100% recommend him to anyone considering a change of career. I have been offered various appointments to different courses either ran by the City and Guilds Board or MLA locksmith training courses and feel I have without doubt chosen the correct course to attend.

 

Remember Mark, “Ask Question’s, Demand Answers”!!!
