Lockcarpentry Online Course

Master the Art of Installing Luxury Door Hardware.

Lockcarpentry is a niche trade that combines aspects of locksmithing and carpentry, particularly when installing luxury door hardware.

Traditional locksmiths primarily work with metal, while traditional carpenters primarily work with wood.

Lock carpenters however, specialise in the precise and intricate installation of high-end door hardware, mostly into expensive joinery doors.

Lockcarpentry falls into a "grey area" between the two traditional trades that require a specific skill set that goes beyond basic locksmithing and carpentry.

It demands expertise in assembling and fitting luxurious door hardware from various sources globally. For example, non-standard handles, locks, bolts and pulls.

Tony Gouverneur who coined the name “Lockcarpentry” created the first ever training course covering the specific niche of lock carpentry work. He has over 10,000 hours of experience from installing luxury door hardware in Sydney's finest homes.​

The Lockcarpentry Online Course is designed to fasttrack your knowledge and save you from the painful and expensive lessons luxury door hardware brings to the inexperienced installer.
