About Jim Gamble & Son Locksmith
Our Story
By Graham Gamble
My father Jim Gamble, worked for Crandons Hardware in Woodlark Street for many years, and amongst his duties there he became a dab hand at key cutting and also repairing locks etc.
In 1953 he decided to start out in his own business as a Locksmith & Gunsmith, (Dad was an armourer during the war years in the 2/17th Battalion). The shop was situated at the rear of Lismore Timbers & Hardware at 86 Woodlark Street, (Now the Commonwealth Bank) where we rented a small section.

Around 1968 we moved to larger premises at 72 Keen Street (Ex Mengers Sewing Machine Shop). We had to pack up for floods many times during those years, we had it down to a fine art.
Dad died in 1977 and I carried on with the help of Mum and then later my wife Marion.
I had worked 44 years in the trade up to 1999 when the business was sold.
