UAP Tradelocks purchase rights to Chris Belcher tools

UAP TradeLocks are delighted to announce the purchase of the rights to renowned Locksmith and Engineer, Chris Belcher's curtain picks and other related tools. Chris has worked with UAP over the years to develop some fantastic tools that allow users to open safes and mortice locks.

Chris, who runs Bel-Chèr Locksmiths & Safe Engineers in Plymouth with his wife Suzzie, has designed an array of tools which make up part of the UAP TradeLocks Signature Range, including the RPCP range which is highly acclaimed around the globe. Chris will continue working with UAP over the next few months on some exciting new innovations.

Managing Director of UAP, David Jennings says, "We have enjoyed a fantastic relationship with Chris and Suzzie Belcher over the past 3 years and we were delighted that they approached us first when they wanted to sell the rights to their designs and tools. The CB RPCP range is recognised as the best in the world and continues to be one of our top selling products year after year."

In addition, UAP TradeLocks have purchased the rights to the La Gard Safe Pick, Safe Repair Taper Pins, the CB Button Gauge and the soon to be launched CB Safe Pick set. Chris Belcher said, "We are pleased to have been involved in the phenomenal growth of UAP TradeLocks over the past 3 years, and I am equally delighted that the tools I developed have been at the heart of that growth."

David continues "The relationship between Chris, Suzzie and UAP TradeLocks does not end with the purchase of these tool rights as we have some very major new innovations being launched over the next few months which will showcase Chris' locksmith and engineering talent. On behalf of UAP I want to publically thank Chris and Suzzie for all their help and support, and we look forward to continuing our relationship on a whole new range of products and ideas."
