Preview The Simple Commercial Locksmith - Three Lock Cylinders You Must Know in Order to Make Income in the Locksmith Industry

Description:
You want to become a locksmith? How about making money working on locks on your way to becoming a locksmith? Learn the locks, then you will learn the skills. I am convinced the locksmith teachers have it all backwards.It's all about the locks first - the skills come second; and it is my personal belief that most of the cherished locksmith skills are overrated, over-hyped, and oversold. I laugh when I look through the locksmith school offerings on the internet. But that's my opinion, one developed over the course of almost 30 years of earning income working on locks.There are three types of lock cylinders you must know in order to be successful in a part-time or full-time lock servicing business. Master them, and the rest is down hill. The three cylinders are the key-in-lever, mortise, and rim cylinders. Most locksmith work centers around these three cylinders. Your job as a locksmith will be to show up at a client's place of business, remove one of these three cylinders from the device it operates. and re-key that cylinder. David Calvin shows you these three cylinders and details real world scenarios in which you will find yourself when servicing them. Not only does he cover the three types of cylinders, but David Calvin also shows you the locking devices these cylinders operate. In this book, which originally was sixty typed pages, you will also get step by step information about the various devices including the Dor-O-Matic 1690 exit device, a very popular lock being used today. You will also learn about knob and lever removal, lock re-keying, panic bar removal, Adams-Rite glass door lock servicing, and a host of other subjects that you will encounter in the field. This book includes a large number of quality photographs. I also list the basic tools you will need in order to service commercial locks. This book is not a course on lock re-keying. This book shows you exactly what you will be getting into when you enter the commercial lock service profession on a part-time or full-time basis. If the truth be known, keying up cylinders is a breeze; and you can get this education quickly through an online source. (Or just get the tools and teach yourself!) As always, I list my website in this book so you can email or call me at anytime for questions you may have regarding any lock problem. I have been in business for 25 years.
