Locksmithing Training Programs

Jobs for locksmiths in the next few years are projected to grow at an average rate, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Much of a locksmith's work is on-call, due to the fact that they most often install security systems and re-key locks for both residential and commercial customers.

Locksmith Career Outlook & Training
A combination of precision and creative problem-solving is required for a successful career as a locksmith. Average locksmith salaries are around $35,000 per year, according to Salary.com. Some locksmiths learn their trade through on-the-job training, but many states require that locksmiths become licensed. In order to earn a license, formal career training may be necessary.

Locksmith Career Training
The coursework for a typical locksmith training program takes as little as a few days to as long as a few months. Most courses cover the following areas:
  • Safety and stock handling
  • Hand and power tools
  • Lock and key theory
  • Master keying
  • High security locks
  • Electrical theory
  • Welding
  • Safe deposit locks
