Learn From The Man Who Invented the Trade

Tony Gouverneur

 Tony has been a carpenter for 32 years. For the last 22 of those, he has specialised exclusively in the installation of high-end door hardware - a niche so specific that no one had even named it before. Tony coined the term “Lockcarpentry” in Sydney in 2019. 

That word is now a registered trademark (IP Australia, 2021).

 

The trade Tony named is now a recognised specialisation. The course he created is the only training of its kind anywhere in the world.

Tony’s work speaks for itself: he is personally recommended by Sydney’s leading luxury hardware suppliers to their clients. When the supplier trusts your name enough to hand it to a homeowner with a $50,000 worth of doors, you know the standard is exceptional.

His motto says it all: Done Once, Done Right.
