Our Story – Paragon Locksmith St John’s Wood
Hark! Welcome to Paragon Locksmith, where craftsmanship meets character. Founded by Nathan Clarke, a former marine technician and surfer chap turned land-bound locksmith, we’ve been bolting down Britain with seaworthy precision for over a decade.
Nathan’s tale began on the high seas — tinkering with corroded boat latches and weather-battered padlocks along our nation’s blustery coasts. After helping countless vessel owners fend off rust and ruin, he made a noble pivot from waves to walkways, bringing marine-grade security know-how to homes and estates inland.
Whether you’re nestled in a Georgian terrace or overseeing a boathouse in Bayswater, Paragon stands ready to secure your domain — rain or shine, sleet or squall.
Our Specialities – Weather the Storm in Style
1. Salt-Resistant Lock Installations
No more fretting over rusty keys or jammed latches. We install weather-defiant, saltproof locking mechanisms fit for the coast or any damp, draughty corner of dear old England.
- Brass-bodied and marine-sealed
- Built to endure wind, water, and wretched winters
- Ideal for boathouses, conservatories, and garden gates
2. Boathouse & Dockside Securing
Locks that laugh in the face of fog. From canal boats to seaside chalets, our marine-tested systems keep your kit, craft, and comforts safe from both man and the elements.
- Discreet waterproof keypads
- Rope-friendly access control
- Custom-fitted for heritage moorings
3. Rain-Hardy Entry Upgrades for Period Homes
Live in an older manor or cottage where locks are as old as your great-aunt’s biscuit tin? Fret not. We retrofit period-appropriate, rain-hardy hardware that looks the part and lasts twice as long.
- Cast-iron and bronze options available
- Weather-stripping and antique finish included
- Respectful to the property’s original charm

What the Locals Say:
“Mr. Clarke came 'round in a proper nor’easter and replaced our back garden lock in a flash. Polite as a vicar and sharp as a tack. Quite the find.”

“We’ve had no end of bother with rusted locks near the water. Paragon fitted marine-grade kits on both our side gates — not a single squeak since. Spiffing work!”
