locksmiths
Door lock experts
Locksmiths is the plural of locksmith—a person who makes, repairs, or opens locks.
Locksmiths cut keys, install deadbolts, and rescue people locked out of cars and homes.
The trade requires knowledge of mechanical and electronic security systems.
We called a locksmith when we lost the house keys.
