Our Story
The story of Lockforce…
How it was conceived and developed, and how it has grown as a franchise since launching over five years ago.
The accolades, the awards and our story so far – here’s how it happened...
Lockforce is owned and run by The Forces Group, which leads a number of companies that provide key services to businesses and customers across the UK.
In 2014, Lockforce was formed by Paul Smith and Sean Taylor, following their success and experience in the franchise industry. In fact, the team at Lockforce have over 30 years of experience and practical knowledge in the locksmith industry and support franchisees in the Lockforce family across the UK with their businesses.
It’s Sean’s experience of franchise businesses and facilities management that meant they were ideally placed to take Lockforce to the next level and become the respected locksmith business it is now.
Their world-class team and together they have a plan and business vision of making Lockforce one of the most successful and recognised names in their industry.
The team at Lockforce have over 30 years of experience and practical knowledge in managing locksmith businesses and support many franchisees in the Lockforce family.
Their hard work paid off when, in 2017, Sean won Entrepreneurs Circle’s prestigious National Entrepreneur of the Year award; high praise indeed!

‘Business is going very well…’
“I was interested in Lockforce as I had a joinery background. I learnt an awful lot during training, Carl is extremely knowledgeable and very supportive. Business is going very well, I’d recommend Lockforce to anyone thinking of joining.
