Start with the condition.
Understand the scope.
Identify the safe and explain whether the issue concerns its key, combination, keypad or operating mechanism. Confirm the authorization documentation required and ask about assessment options, potential damage and repair limitations. Agree on any follow-up lock service, combination change or repair separately and confirm how information will be handed over.
What may be involved
- manipulation and diagnostic tools
- replacement safe lock if needed
- repair plugs
- new combination set
Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.

Source ↗Local context
California's Department of Consumer Affairs publishes consumer tips for hiring a locksmith. It states that in California locksmiths must be licensed by the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services, asks consumers to verify the licence online at bsis.ca.gov or by telephone, and says locksmiths are required by law to carry a pocket version of their licence and should be asked to show it on arrival. It adds that a contractor's licence is also required where work at a single site exceeds a stated amount. Use it before agreeing work; this page carries no verified licence record for any business.
