Counting Down to Lockex
With just one month to go, the organisers of Lockex, the uniquely
tailored exhibition aimed at locksmiths, are already claiming the event
to be a huge success with a massive up-take of visitor registrations
for the show and its series of daily training courses on offer.
»»LOCKEX IS TO BE HELD AT THE
Ricoh Arena, Coventry on September 16th –
18th and will play host to a list of renowned
exhibitors including; ASSA Abloy, Henry Squire
and Co, Hickleys and Keyprint to name but a
few.
Rob Exley, Director for Lockex, comments:
“Registration for the show has been increasing
daily, with pre-registrations now well over
a thousand. We are seeing a wide range of
industries interested in visiting the show,
including some international visitors.
“The event was initially born out of the need
to create an exhibition tailored to the needs
of the locksmith, and after extensive research
conducted through a series of surveys, we
were able to construct a show for just that;
what the locksmith wants to do and see when
they visit an exhibition.
“The interest for the show has been
fantastic from the very start and we have
evolved the ideas we had initially to add
further incentives at the show, for example,
Locksmiths who pre-register early will get a
free breakfast and £5 lunch voucher on arrival,
so no one need go hungry while networking
and seeing the latest new products available on
the market,” Rob adds.

THREE DAYS OF
EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE
Over the three-day period of the show, from
Friday 16th to Sunday 18th September 2016,
the Locksmith industry will come together to
meet for the first ever Lockex exhibition, a
show created entirely for them.
The show will see the likes of lock, safe
and auto-locksmith equipment manufacturers
and distributors all under one roof, as well as
offering an extensive list of training sessions to
cover all aspects of the industry’s activities.
Pulling together the latest technology and
product enhancements in the industry, the
show will see six of the industry’s renowned
Locksmith and Auto-Locksmith manufacturers
and suppliers draw from their wealth of
knowledge to ensure delegates have the latest
information to practice their profession in the
best possible way.
Rob continues: “We have sought out some
of the top names in the industry after asking
Locksmiths about what issues were important
to them.
“Each workshop session over the three
days has been devised to cover those issues
and will see the likes of Keyprint, Hinkleys,
MPL, Tradelocks, Securefast and M Marcus talk
delegates through a series of subjects, offering
advice and practical tips on how to overcome
each issue.”
Each day, delegates will be invited to attend
the session at 11am for breakfast and will then
be able attend their chosen sessions, which run
throughout the day, up until 5pm.
“Spaces on each workshop session are
limited, so we are encouraging attendees
to book as soon as they can to avoid
disappointment,” Rob adds.
