Design and Installation
Design involves drafting the best security solution for a company or a home. This design may be purely physical or a combination of both physical and logical designs.

It involves assigning the fingerprints rights on the system, giving keys to the various doors and cabinets on need basis, customizing the software to suit the organisational security needs among others.
Training
For a security design to work for an organisation or an individual, a thorough training on the security procedures incorporated in the system must be given. Security systems require absolute dedication to the procedures trained to succeed. Training also involves ensuring that each individual in the organization or home knows his security pass code and that it his responsibility to make the system work. More importantly, training sensitizes the members of the organization about the security threats the organisation faces and thus help make them part of the security system. Part of the locksmith services company’s staff duty is to ensure strict adherence to the trained procedures lest the customer claims the system is not working for them.
Repairs
Locksmith services also involve a lot of repairs. From door to cabinet locks, system troubleshooting to bugs removal, lost keys replication to keys duplication; a locksmith is expected to handle these functions as part of the contract. Repairs are a major income earner for the locksmiths and they therefore take it very serious.
Security System Management
Another important segment of locksmith services is the security system management. Security services company teams are responsible for upgrades; both physical and logical. In conjunction with the security administrator of the organisation or house, they are responsible for the day to day operations of the security system. They handle the user’s queries and give customer support on a day to day basis.
24-hour Emergency Services
