​

How to Know Which Course To Choose!

The length of course you choose is based on your skill level! The shorter the course the high skill level you will require to complete the course, the longer the course the lower your skill level. So a complete novice with no DIY skills would require the 36 week long training course, however a locksmith who is trading but getting stuck on high security hardware and multipoint deadlocked doors could do a 2 or 3 day course. However if you are good with DIY tools then you could also do a 3 day intensive course. All of our courses are longer than just the days you visit us as they all have foundation level 1 awards which is a 4 week online training course. Then you do your face to face hands on training then with that skill set head home and complete a further 11 weeks of training at home. We aim to have every student no mater the price you pay up to a (MMLT LEVEL 3) award once the final exams are completed. The 36 week course will achieve a MMLT Level 4 award. Each course is based on you being a mobile locksmith and the each course offers different tools packages and training packages. Choose what's best for your budget.

GMLUK Training 36 (2).png

The Mobile Master Locksmith Course and Business Package in Newquay Cornwall is the most advanced course in the UK. It has yet to fail any of the students that's undertaken the course and completed it. It works for both us and the locksmith. If we only trained you for 7 days you will be forever getting stuck on jobs and costing us as a business further money by always calling us up asking for help which takes time and money out of our day to day business, you will be damaging doors that could run into thousands of pounds at time, causing financial issues for yourself as your time under training wont be long enough. You will NOT know any other solution to your problems you face on the job and this will damage your confidence until you eventually give up.

 

This is why we wont train people for just a few days without prior knowledge of the trade. We also do not like to split the courses up doing a 2 day course for foundation, then a 3 day level 1 course and so on and so on costing you thousands extra and this takes longer. By the time you get to actually doing jobs you have forgotten most of your training. There is just no way you can become a real locksmith and be able to deal with todays jobs by doing a week long course unless your really good at pretending. 

​

This is why we break our courses down online as you do not need to be face to face to learn the foundation levels. We can do that via video calling sessions using our online training portal and assignments.  Once that's complete which normally takes around 8 weeks of study, research and online training with your instructor via video calling sessions. You will then be at a level to come and do a face to face training session. The reason we do this is that you need to learn the tools, terminology, legal such as BSI kitemarks, fire rated hardware codes, insurance regulations even before you hold a lock and pick. But once you know this information you will then move on to the locks and hardware and finally get a chance to start learning many skills within our framework.

​

It would be a waste of your timer to visit us without the foundation as we would need to keep stopping our lesson to explain foundation based terms. We need you at a level 1 award and to have passed the Guild of Master Locksmith foundation and level 1 and 2 exams before you attend. Once your in our lock lab we will be moving into a level 3 training program which is advanced. There we will sign off and test you on level 1 and 2 and have you show us what you have been taught, here we can clean up any bad skill sets and deal with anything your stuck on. Level 3 is what we call the technical entry level, this is where we bypass locks and hardware, deal with telescopic pin in pin systems and high security hardware along with everything multipoint locking to toe and heeling doors plus so much more. Its a hands on full week of locksmith skills that's not only fun but challenging.

​

Once your face to face training has been completed you will have a level 3 in locksmithing and we will celebrate on the final evening with a meal as part of the course. Once you return home we will then delve back onto our online training and move to working on the level 4 master locksmith award. Once completed you will then move to the business packages which is all online and done from your home. Many complete the level 4 within a few weeks after the course but we allow up to 36 weeks but we have had students excel in the subject and complete the 21 weeks of training in 15 weeks and have gone on to be successful in there area.

Intense Locksmith Training Courses Cornwall

What is intense locksmith training?

Its a form of rapid learning that's best suited to trades people and people with a background in the industry or similar such as joiners, door and window fitters, engineers, mechanics. However even on our intense courses we do something that no other locksmith training school does and that is a pre course. We do it 4 weeks before you arrive. Its a foundation course that gets you ready for your face to face training and is undertaken at home and online with your instructor before you arrive but once the face to face course is complete you will then undertake an optional 11 week online at home training program with exams to receive your level 1,2 and 3 Guild of Master Locksmiths award and the Locksmith Trade Training Association badge. However without the added training you will still receive a level 3 Guild award but not the LTTA certification. 

​

What is the LTTA? The LTTA is Locksmith Trade and Training Association is part of the Guild of Master Locksmiths, Its a award for excellence in the industry to say you have been trained to the highest standard available and have completed both the GMLUK and the LTTA exams and have been trained under a master locksmith with more than a decade of training under that instructor and the instructor must have been in charge of there own successful locksmith business for more than 10 years with a annual turnover of more that £75k as a sole trader. These are markers of success and time served on the job which is invaluable education and not taught in books.

​

What's taught on a intensive course? The intensive training courses are a 7 day course put into either a 2 day locksmith training course, a 3 day locksmith training course or 5 day locksmith training course. It is only the locksmith side of the course. There is no business training. But you get access to our online business program FREE of charge as part of the course which is a 15 week online program that you can study and learn to build your business or help increase sales and bookings in an existing business. It also includes all eBooks and manuals, apps and more and is valued at £1500 as a stand alone course.

​

Each of our locksmith courses in Newquay Cornwall come with self catering accommodation as shown above. But you may be able to have the course at a discounted price if you do not require accommodation so it is worth contacting us if you are local.  These course are 1 to 2 training ratio, so the maximum in your class will be you and one other student, often its just one to one depending on the bookings.

Things You Should Know!

First we dont train you how to drill locks like many courses do today as you cant drill British Standard locks they have anti drill pins and its just so wrong on so many levels and just highlight a lack of skill. 

​

We wont train you in subjects you will not use in a real life locksmith business today, just to create content filler or to avoid training you in more in-depth topics to try and make more money from a trainee.

​

The reason we stock you with the locksmith tools is that you will be working on our customers doors, we cant have cheap tools going wrong or "con" tools been used on our courses. We give you the exact tools we use day to day on real jobs and you keep the tools, cases, bag everything is yours to take home.

​

We also give you a starter stock package, this puts you on the right path and stops you buying rubbish you will never use or sell.  So many locksmith go so wrong in the beginning and end up in debt as they have rushed out and bought a van and filled it with stock they cant use or sell, they have high overheads as the van is sign written so the insurance goes through the roof, they then become a target to thieves and need a safe storage place to keep the vehicle or they start up a shop with large overheads, we see this all the time when they ask to be re-trained by Taylors, a professional master locksmith company. Its simple, just follow our advice, replicate what we do and make a profit as a business and don't struggle.

​

We train you in business as you could be the world best lock picker but without today's online business training from a  company who ranks number one on Google maps and organic listings for the areas we serve, you simply wont get anywhere or make any money. You will end up paying a 3rd party company to advertise you and spending most of your profits trying to get business and paying for advertising that wont work such a leaflets, or yellow pages. Ask yourself, do you read leaflets? Where is your yellow pages when your locked out of your home? See where I am coming from. That is not what you want, its a downward spiral of debt in to pay per click adds, people selling you SEO packages each month for £250 per month. Our locksmith company outranks Yel.com along with many other multi million pound companies as we know what we are doing when it comes to online business and we don't pay anyone a penny. 

​

After all most locksmith schools are only failed locksmiths themselves passing on 2nd hand information to try and earn a living as they did a course with a  hack company and had no business training or only done a job centre business course and this led them to making it half way, enough to get by and earn some cash passing on what they do but still paying most of what they earn out in advertising.
