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 Kent 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 Tunbridge Wells, Kent and South East England with everything from emergency lockouts and lock repairs to burglary repairs, vehicle keys and security upgrades.

"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."

A Recent Locksmith Job In Tunbridge Wells
Recently I attended a property in Pembury where the homeowner had become increasingly concerned about a front door that was becoming difficult to lock.
After inspecting the door, I found the multipoint locking mechanism had begun to fail internally. I replaced the faulty gearbox, serviced the locking system and realigned the door. The customer avoided the cost of a complete mechanism replacement and had their home fully secure again the same day.
Problems with multipoint locks, worn gearboxes and dropped doors are some of the most common faults I encounter throughout Tunbridge Wells and the surrounding villages.
