Not here like there used to be. I think young people don't apprentice in trades as much as was common, the result is less well trained people, just old guys and gals who want to retire. The only locksmith in my town died with no one to carry on. A worker at Ace hardware does not a locksmith make. They can copy a master lock key, that's about it around here unfortunately.Are there not lock and key shops everywhere?
After Simmons broke his key off in his saddlebag, I started carrying blanks. Of course they were never needed, but they didn't take up much room. +1 on Ace Hardware.Not here like there used to be.

Same here.Not here like there used to be.
Often that's enough and better than the local locksmith. The shop was once excellent but was taken over by two guys who look like they probably bypass the alarm systems they install to loot customers' homes in the dead of night. I had them make copies on two blanks and they only got one right. I should have gone to Ace.Chunk said:A worker at Ace hardware does not a locksmith make.
