Abbott Locksmiths Reveals Why People Shouldn’t Call Locksmiths as Last Resort

01/17/2013
Sydney-based Abbott Locksmiths reveals in a recent interview why contacting a locksmith before being locked out is a good strategy.

In a recent interview, twenty-four hour Sydney locksmith Abbott Locksmiths reveals why locksmiths are more than just for people who are locked out of their homes.

“People usually think of locksmiths as a last resort. But there are a lot of ways to use a locksmith in non emergency situations that can benefit your security needs,” said David Polley, Owner of Abbott Locksmiths.

“One situation where it’s smart to work with a locksmith is when you buy a gun. Some locksmiths offer safes to store guns. These gun safes keep your family safe from gun accidents, and keep them away from potential thieves who break into your home,” he continued.

“Remember that when you buy a gun, you are ultimately responsible for everything that happens with that gun. It’s up to you to keep it safe from misuse and theft,” said Mr. Polley.

Polley reveals further that safes can also be used when important documents are changed.

“When you’re changing important documents, gathering them together, or buying insurance, it’s good to have a safe place to store these documents. Safes can protect private documents from rain, fire, theft, and intruding eyes,” said Mr. Polley.

According to David Polley, locksmiths can be used for lock needs that extend beyond the last minute emergency call when locked out.

“People often don’t think of locksmiths until something goes wrong. But taking a proactive approach can help you prevent a lot of security headaches,” said Mr. Polley.
“For example, one of the most popular requests we get is for installation of master key systems. These master key systems are becoming more popular for businesses,” he continued.

“What master key systems do is keep employees from coming into areas where they are not supposed to be, without needing to hand out extra keys for personnel who are allowed in special access areas,” explained Mr. Polley.

Sydney residents interested in buying safes or installing master key systems can contact the lock and safe experts at Abbott Locksmiths.
