About us

Our History

SKS Ltd, trading as JMA UK, was established in 1972. During the late 70's the company started wholesaling keys from their locksmith premises in Harrow. By 1984 the wholesale side of the business had grown significantly making it necessary to separate it from the retail business and at the same time its partnership with JMA part of the Altuna Group was formed. Since then the company has continued to grow year on year to become the UK's largest key blank supplier with focus on the key and lock industry.

In January 2017 JMA purchased SKS to become SKS | JMA and in June 2021 the company became JMA UK.
