Trusted Partnerships: LOCK5 and Roder

An interview with Nic Hardy, Roder.

Seamless collaboration. Exceptional delivery.

At LOCK5, creating defining moments for events is their forte, but for Nic Hardy at Roder, it’s the trusted partnership that makes it effortless.

A History of Collaboration

Nic Hardy, Senior Account Manager at Roder, has worked with LOCK5 for years. For her, the relationship is simple: reliable, professional, and collaborative.

“I’ve known Rob and Tanya for longer than I can remember, and I’ve worked with LOCK5 on many big projects. If I ever need linings and internal fit-out, they are the only people I would approach.”

Roder provides marquee structures, while LOCK5 brings interiors, linings, and props to life.

Tanya Crowe, LOCK5’s Business Development Manager remarks, “After 10+ years of working together, our relationship has evolved into a true partnership built on deep-rooted trust. We don’t just deliver because it’s our standard; we do it because we are personally invested in making sure Nic and the Roder team shine in front of their clients. It’s just
how we roll!”

Nic highlights why the partnership works so well for Roder:

“LOCK 5 understand the complexities, different marquees, shapes, client needs, moving doors. There’s an element of flexibility that’s key. They’re friendly, straightforward, professional, and always responsive. Working with them is easy.”

Evolving to Deliver More

LOCK5 has evolved beyond interiors and linings into full-service event solutions, including design, fit-out, props, catering, and immersive experiences.

“For certain clients, having a turnkey solution with design expertise is a huge benefit. While our recent events, like RHS Chelsea Flower Show, don’t always require elaborate interiors, this evolution opens doors to new opportunities and clients who do.”

Why Partnerships Matter

Nic’s experience perfectly illustrates LOCK5’s brand principles:

Confident: delivering creative and technical solutions with precision.

Creative: transforming blank spaces into immersive, memorable environments.

Transformational: opening possibilities for clients and partners alike.

“Streamlined, professional, helpful, LOCK5 makes it simple to get things done right. They take care of the complexities, so the event works flawlessly, every time.”

Looking for a partner who turns ambitious ideas into defining moments? From interiors and fit-out to full experiential design, LOCK5 brings imagination, capability, and trusted partnerships to every event.
