Myths about locksmith service providers

Your security is compromised

Whenever you will call a locksmith service provider to install a new lock or make a duplicate key for your lock, they will keep the access to the lock to themselves as well. This essentially means that they can gain access to your property whenever they would like to. Because they have the means to duplicate the key for your house or your property for which they have installed a new key or a lock.

First of all, this is absolutely untrue and there are no incidents that can back this argument. No one has reported that locksmith providers have illegally and unlawfully gained access to their property.

Secondly, locksmith service providers work under strict regulations. There are set rules and laws within each state under which a locksmith service provider has to work with. Failure to comply with these laws and rules would lead to the termination of the license. No locksmith service provider would want to do this. Because it would also trigger legal proceedings against the business as well.

Service charges are high at night

Usually, some businesses that are working at night do provide services at a premium rate. This is because these are the hours that cannot be considered normal hours for the business.

However, for locksmith service providers, the entire day happens to be normal working hours because as mentioned before a locksmith service provider is always required in the event of an emergency and emergencies do not know any time bounds. Therefore, all professional locksmith companies will never charge you a premium for providing essential services to you.

Especially if you are or drink services from a local service provider who is located in your area and does not have to cover a huge mile to travel to you does not have any reason to charge you a premium price. However, if you are availing service from a locksmith Provider who is very far off from your location might have to charge you an extra amount for the distance that they have to cover to get to you.

Locksmith allow access to my house to anyone

Many people have this misconception that since locksmiths can disarm any lock, this would mean that anyone posing as the owner of my property or my car can just call a locksmith provider and ask them to allow the impostor the control the property or the car.

This is absolutely untrue and there’s no evidence that can back this argument. Rather the opposite can be argued and presented with evidence. Whenever you call for a locksmith service provider for emergency lockout services, they will arrive at your location at an instance. For instance, if you are locked out of your home because maybe you lost the key, getting in the process is not as easy as it might look.

The 1st order of the business by the locksmith service provider would be to make sure that nobody is present in the house. Secondly, they will ask for documentary evidence from the person claiming to be the owner of the house. This documentary evidence should identify that this person is the rightful owner of the property. Sometimes these locksmith service providers can check with the state authorities to verify the details.

Only when a locksmith service provider is satisfied that this person is the rightful owner of the property, will they allow them access to the house. Because if they do allow access to an impostor, they will be also legally and financially liable to the damages caused by this impostor on another person’s property.
