A bit of traditional skills needed today as we were asked to cut a key to a Lips double bitted safe lock where the keys were lost
No short cuts, just a file and some patience to create a key by hand

Welcome to our temporary home for the next couple of weeks. Network Rail need to carry out routine inspections on the arch’s walls and ceiling so we’ve moved next door in No3 Arena Court
We’ve set up the key machines and brought the stock across so our normal key cutting and lock and safe sales service will continue
All the usual phone numbers and emails are live so we’re fully contactable
Please pop in and say hi if you’re passing and see what an itinerant locksmiths looks like!

Rio was in the office yesterday so I got her to pose next to her image on the mural. Shows just how amazingly lifelike the artwork by Kelzo and Evan is!

It’s finished! Thank you Kelzo and Evan for all your hard work
It looks fantastic. There is so much detail in it that you’ll need to study to take it all in - from the dogs to the Strangeways rioters and an homage to Lowry’s art
Love the way the door shows a padlock open or closed depending on which way you’re walking
We’ll post some close ups over the next few days for those who can’t see it for real

Kelzo’s artistry is well on now - rain stopped play today but they’ll be back tomorrow
Stop by for a look if you can and watch this space if you can’t
It promises to be even more stunning

If you’re near the cathedral this weekend why not call round to the office and see Kelzo, the famous street artist, at work on a fabulous mural
The design is well under way and promises to be stunning when it’s completed
We’ll bring you more pictures as it all progresses
