FOUNDED BY A LOCKSMITH.
STILL RUN BY ONE.
Forge was started in 2012 by Andy Cairney after a decade with one of Glasgow's big security firms. He got fed up with three-hour wait times and £200 call-out fees on a doorstep.
Today we're four engineers in sign-written vans covering Glasgow and the West. We're MLA-approved, properly insured, and we'll always try a non-destructive opening before we even think about drilling.
GLASGOW SAYS
WE TURN UP.
“Locked out at half eleven on a Tuesday with the wee one inside. Andy was at the door in 22 minutes flat, in without a scratch on the lock. Hero.”
“Our UPVC back door packed in the morning of a wedding. Quoted on the phone, fitted a new gearbox same morning. Honest price, brilliant job.”
“Sorted master key suites across four of our Glasgow offices. Tidy, properly thought out, and a fraction of what the big firms wanted.”
GLASGOW & THE
WEST OF SCOTLAND.
Based on the south side of Glasgow, we cover everything inside the M8 and out to East Kilbride, Hamilton and Paisley. Further afield? Give us a bell — we'll be straight with you about timings.
