The answer is right in the MYSQL manual itself    DELETE FROM  table name  WHERE  time col   lt  ADDDATE NOW    INTERVAL -1 HOUR

If time created is a unix timestamp  int   you should be able to use something like this   DELETE FROM locks WHERE time created  lt   UNIX TIMESTAMP   - 600      600 seconds   10 minutes - obviously   Otherwise  if time created is mysql timestamp   you could try this   DELETE FROM locks WHERE time created  lt   NOW   - INTERVAL 10 MINUTE
