SAFES & SAFE LOCKS
2020-21
2020 has brought further investment in expanding sales channels , with the addition of eCommerce to support their trade customers . Their online store will be open from January 2021 .
Safelock Systems Ltd is a trade distributor of locks for safes , stocking a range of products from leading manufacturers such as LA GARD , dormakaba , Tecnosicurezza and Wittkopp .
Since 1985
Safelock Systems was incorporated in 1985 by Jim and Linda Brown after Jim gained experience in the industry working for Sargent & Greenleaf . Jim worked in partnership with LA GARD founder Nick Gartner , to begin distributing the LA GARD range of mechanical combination and key locks , and with his personable , genuine , and passionate approach , began successfully marketing to the UK and Ireland .
Evolution
Jim and Linda started the business from home and soon found that their children didn ’ t really grasp the intended purpose of a LA GARD combination dial box .
Safelock Systems moved to Motspur park in 1988 , and have been there since .
As the industry evolved , and as electronic lock systems were developed by LA GARD , Safelock Systems continued to expand , with its focus on the programming and supply of electronic locks – still recognisable on safes , vaults , cabinets and ATMs across the world .
With the passing of Jim early in 2012 , and the retirement of Tom as the General Manager , Jim ’ s son Tony , and daughter Jasmine , joined the company . They immediately saw the potential working with the already successful team , and with a change to the international distribution of LA GARD , had the opportunity to expand the company ’ s portfolio of manufacturers .
