Accreditations

The Lock Father is CHAS accredited, proving our high standards in health and safety. It also confirms our commitment to fulfilling everything required by UK law.

We consider this a critical accreditation for our business as we look to continue to partner with Local Authorities in Essex and East London.

What Does CHAS Prove To Our Commercial Clients? 

For new clients, it demonstrates that, as a business, we make every effort to comply with the law and follow best practices. In some respects, it puts us on a similar level and business practices to our potential and current clients.

The accreditation proves that we take our responsibilities as a business seriously, without hoping for the benefit of the doubt.

Fundamentally, it shows that we are trustworthy and committed.

On top of our CHAS accreditation, The Lock Father is also Safe Contractor Approved, reassuring our clients that we take our employees’ health and safety seriously.

Alcumus own and run the accreditation and certification, and they are the UK’s leading provider of risk management.

The Lock Father is a service supplier (locksmithing/security). With this accreditation, we can prove to new and existing customers that we care and are competent in health and safety.

As well as CHAS and Safe Contractor Approved, The Lock Father is currently a member (over a decade) of The Buy With Confidence Scheme.

The Buy With Confidence Scheme is a partnership of Local Authority Trading Standards Services, formed in direct response to the rise in “rogue traders”.

Currently, listed businesses continually undergo detailed checks by professional Trading Standards staff.
