Winners include Codelocks for both Best Access Control of the Year and Keyless Entry Company of the Year; UAP for Hardware Company of the Year and Squire for Padlock Supplier of the Year.
Hazel Oakley of Gloucester Locksmiths was named Female Locksmith of the Year. Gloucester Locksmith is a long-term partner of Mul-T Lock, part of the ASSA ABLOY Group. Gloucester Locksmith has over a 50% female staff ratio.
Oakley said: “Winning Female Locksmith of the Year genuinely means so much to me. I’m proud of the work I do and of the trust customers place in me, and to be recognised by the industry in this way is incredibly special. I hope it encourages more women to see locksmithing as a real career choice where they can thrive and be taken seriously.”
