Aperto advantage...

Aperto Lock & Key Solutions was founded by Nathan, whose passion for public service and commitment to safety have shaped the foundation and values of the company.

After a distinguished career spanning over two decades in public service with experience across three essential public safety services including HM Prison Service, Kent Fire and Rescue Service and Kent Police.

Nathan brings a wealth of real-world expertise, leadership, and dedication to the locksmith and security industry.

Throughout his career, Nathan served on the frontlines of public protection, working in high-pressure environments that demanded precision, integrity, and calm under pressure.

His roles required not only technical skill but also a deep sense of empathy, responsibility, and the ability to support people in vulnerable, often stressful situations.

Whether managing emergency incidents, responding to critical public safety threats, or helping people in crisis, Nathan consistently showed a strong commitment to serving his community with professionalism and care.

After decades of service, Nathan recognised a growing need in both residential and commercial sectors for trustworthy, experienced locksmiths, professionals who understand that safety is not just about locks and keys, but about people.

He saw the opportunity to take his lifelong mission of helping others and channel it into a new venture, one that combines technical excellence with compassionate service.

This vision became the driving force behind Aperto Lock & Key Solutions. The word Aperto, meaning “open” in Italian, perfectly captures the spirit of the company: open doors, open solutions, and open-hearted service.

Founded on the principles of reliability, integrity, and attention to detail, Aperto is not just a locksmith company, it’s a partner in protecting what matters most.

From emergency lockouts and broken key extractions to advanced security installations and preventative consultations, Aperto offers comprehensive solutions tailored to each client’s unique needs.

Nathan has built Aperto with the same values that guided him throughout his public service career: honesty, respect, accountability, and a genuine desire to help others.

Every job,no matter how big or small is approached with the same dedication to quality, safety, and service. At Aperto Lock & Key Solutions, we don’t just unlock doors, we unlock peace of mind.

With Nathan’s leadership and a team committed to excellence, we are proud to provide a service that people can trust, backed by decades of real-world experience in keeping individuals, families, and communities safe.
