When I first began work as a locksmith I received a lot of training on how to take locks apart and put them back together.  However, it seemed to me that there was a big hole in my training.  Every time I went on a commercial job which involved ordering new hardware, I often had more questions than answers.  This video is an attempt to fill that gap in your training.  Can you answer the following questions?  If not, you need this video.  It covers all of this material and a lot more.  This video runs 1 hour and 25 minutes.

More and more people now have safes in their homes.  Of course, many businesses have always had safes.  So combination safe locks are everywhere and they are great source of work for the typical locksmith.  Changing combinations is service that you can offer which will add revenue to your business.
