Credentials & Standards
California requires all practicing locksmiths to hold a license issued by the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS). Ask for it before anyone works on your door or vehicle.
Issued by the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS). You can verify this license number directly at BSIS.ca.gov at any time. The license is the legally required credential for any locksmith operating in California - not a badge or a certificate.
We carry general liability insurance covering property damage during service. If something goes wrong during a lockout - which is rare when using proper technique - you are covered. Ask any locksmith to show proof of insurance before starting work.
We provide the total price before we start work. This is not a standard across the industry. Many unlicensed or out-of-area locksmiths quote a low dispatch fee and then add charges at the door. We do not do that - ever.
After every job you get an invoice - service performed, parts used, final price. Useful for property managers who track maintenance, for insurance documentation after a break-in, and for your records as a homeowner.
