Pierre-André Woeffray
Locksmith builder
Saint-Maurice

« Steel is worked today practically as in the Middle Ages. We are forced to shape it by hand because it is very difficult to robotize the gesture. »

Pierre-André Woeffray became familiar with the world of metallurgy at a very young age with his locksmith father. He took over the family business shortly after obtaining his CFC, but the role of business manager did not suit him and he subsequently chose to return to a smaller structure in which he trained apprentices. He is also a trainer at the Metal School in Bulle.

« Today, I do everything but ultimately quite a few locks. This is to say the richness of this profession. »

In his studio, Pierre-André Woeffray works with metal, and mainly steel, in all its forms: stair structures, railings, barriers, metal supports. He regularly collaborates with architects and carries out projects for artists. Anxious to pass on his know-how, he firmly believes in vocational training and trains apprentices.
