About Gerry

I'm Gerry Commane, owner of The Key Locksmith.

I was born in London in 1978 and served as a Royal Navy Naval Airman between 1998 and 2003. After leaving the Armed Forces, I spent several years working on major construction projects across London, including Wembley Stadium and North Middlesex Hospital.

I've lived in Orpington since 2006 and this is where my wife and I have raised our family. The Key Locksmith was built around values that matter to me – honesty, reliability, quality workmanship and treating people fairly.

Today, I help homeowners, landlords and businesses throughout Swanley, Kent and South East London with everything from emergency lockouts and lock repairs to burglary repairs, vehicle keys and security upgrades. When you call The Key Locksmith, you'll speak directly with me and in most cases I'll be the locksmith attending your property.

I believe good customer service is about more than simply fixing locks. It's about turning up when promised, being transparent about costs, doing the job properly and leaving customers feeling safe and looked after.

"Not all heroes wear capes!! Thank you so much for your help today getting my car open after my son locked himself in there on the hottest day of the year. I was kept updated constantly which helped keep me calm and Gerry clearly got there as soon as traffic allowed for."

Where required, replacement locks can be supplied to British Standard and insurance-approved specifications, including anti-snap and high-security options.

A Recent Locksmith Job In Swanley

Recently I attended a property in Hextable where the homeowner had returned from work to find their key turning freely without unlocking the door. The multipoint locking mechanism had failed internally, leaving the property insecure.

After diagnosing the fault, I replaced the failed gearbox, serviced the locking system and realigned the door. The customer avoided the cost of a complete replacement mechanism and had their home fully secure again the very same evening.

Problems with multipoint locks, dropped doors and worn cylinders are some of the most common issues I encounter throughout Swanley, Hextable and the wider BR8 area.
