When you’re locked out, replacing a broken lock, or upgrading your home’s security, it can be tempting to call the cheapest locksmith you can find online. But here’s the truth—hiring an unlicensed locksmith can put your safety and your property at risk. At Beaver Locksmith, we are fully licensed, insured, and committed to providing honest, professional service throughout San Jose and surrounding areas.
What Does It Mean to Be a Licensed Locksmith?
A licensed locksmith has met state and local requirements for training, background checks, and ethical conduct. In California, for example, locksmiths must be registered with the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) and carry a valid license number.
When you hire a licensed locksmith, you’re choosing someone who:
- Has passed background and fingerprint checks
- Is trained to handle a wide range of lock systems
- Follows strict professional and ethical standards
- Is held accountable for their work
An unlicensed locksmith may offer a low price upfront but leave you with damaged locks, incomplete work, or worse—compromised security.
The Risks of Using Unlicensed Locksmiths
Unfortunately, many people learn the hard way that unlicensed locksmiths often operate with no regulation, which can lead to serious problems:
- Overcharging or bait-and-switch pricing tactics
- Damaged property from improper tools or techniques
- Low-quality parts or fake hardware
- Lack of insurance coverage if something goes wrong
- No accountability for poor workmanship or unethical behavior
Would you trust someone with your keys, your doors, and your family’s safety if they weren’t properly vetted?
