I finally got around to registering Locksmith Connect on my new phone (had it forever on my old one), and in the registration form I explained that Colorado has no locksmith license. The team behind the app (actually, I seem to recall it's a LP101 member) emailed back to let me know I needed 3 industry references since I don't have a license. So if any of you locksmiths who have known me for awhile are willing to vouch for me, please PM me with details. The registration form is asking for business name, address and phone #.

I have one favorite distributor (Peterson), and since my last discussion with him was an argument, I don't think that will go over well :)

Are you actually a locksmith?
What distributors do you regularly purchase hardware from?

Nope, there is no license for it. I've only bought from Peterson. If I do contract work, I'd like the option of using the mobile app to save time. Thanks for the voucher offer, billdeserthills.

I always hang up when they call me, I don't like paying to have a company find me work.
