If you like working with your hands and solving mechanical puzzles, locksmithing might be a great fit. What questions do you have about starting?
Start with the boring-but-essential stuff: check your state’s locksmith licensing/background check requirements before buying tools, then grab ALOA’s Basic Locksmithing course at https://www.aloa.org. If you’re into ‘mechanical puzzles’, most days are rekeys and deadbolt installs, not picking — ask a local shop to let you ride along for a day to see the pace. Tell me what state you’re in and I’ll point you to the right requirements.
