There is a secret sticky post hidden away somewhere in plain sight. Find that and it will explain all.

Learning more about nonelectric access devices.

Postby Ron@reddingdss » 4 Jun 2005 22:46

Hello everyone.

I work for a alarm company, my boss wants me to get a LockSmith license.
So I figured I might as well become a fully trained locksmith, earn money doing side jobs ect. PCDI Lock Smith course not bad. Not as expensive as the rest. I will have some tools when I am done. I install Radionics/Bosch & pac readykey weigan access controls. I might be able to answer some general questions If any.

Thanks
Ron. 8)
With biometrics who needs keys. I still wonder about the person who cannot remember which body part they used. (use your imagination ;-} )
