1 min read

Ray Carroll, Chairman of Camlock Systems, has received a certificate from the Master Locksmith Association (MLA) in recognition of his 40 years' membership. Carroll is one of only 15 members who have achieved 40 years' membership of the MLA.

The MLA is a non-profit association representing around 180 of the UK's leading locksmith businesses. In the absence of any Government licensing of locksmiths, the MLA promotes the highest levels of skills and ethics in the industry. To become a member of the MLA, a business is vetted and inspected by the Association and each locksmith must achieve a specialist qualification. The Carroll family has a long association with the lock industry stretching back to 1918. Ray Carroll's father Philip Carroll was a locksmith and his son Robin is now the managing director of the company founded by Ray. Today, Camlock Systems is one of the leading designers, manufacturers and suppliers of industrial locks and locking systems and has gained a reputation for superior products, technical expertise and a high quality of customer service. The company exports all over the world and over a third of its turnover comes from export customers. In recent years the company has also added over 1,000 industrial hardware products to its portfolio, including quarter turn locks, swing handles, multi-point locks, heavy duty paddle handles, hinges and gasketing.
