Own a Preston Locksmith & Security Franchise
Locksmith work doesn’t slow down when the economy does. People lose keys, break keys in locks, buy homes that need rekeying, and lock themselves out at midnight whether the market is booming or not. That’s the foundation. What Preston Locksmith & Security adds on top is a brand built since 2008 on a simple promise: locked out or locking up, with the price up front. With 0 locations across 0 states today, you’re looking at an opportunity to bring The Relay Visibility Guarantee to your market before someone else does. The systems, the training, the brand standards are all built. The territory isn’t.
Why This Opportunity
A Proven Brand With Real Standards
Preston Locksmith & Security is part of the Relay Home Co. family, and every location operates under The Relay Standard. That means a written price before any work starts, a live trackable arrival time, before-and-after photos on every job, and a written guarantee stamped on every repair. We back it all with the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. Customers don’t have to take our word for it. The promise is in writing, and so is the guarantee. That’s how you build a local reputation fast.
Recurring Local Demand
Every neighborhood has doors, and every door has hardware. Lockouts, rekeys, deadbolt replacements, commercial key systems, access control. That demand renews daily. Homeowners move in and need locks changed. A landlord turns over a unit. A shop owner loses a master key. None of it can wait two weeks. Customers need a locksmith who answers the phone and shows up. Preston Locksmith & Security answers calls with a live person 24/7, no voicemail, no callback queue. That alone converts a huge share of local demand.
A Marketing and Lead Engine That Works
You don’t have to figure out local marketing from scratch. The Relay Home Co. system runs on visibility: a live arrival link, photo updates, digital invoices with a pay link. That’s not just service quality, it’s a marketing engine. Younger, phone-first homeowners expect to book, track, and pay from their phone. When you deliver that, they leave reviews, they refer neighbors, they call back. The brand promise does the selling, and your technicians show up in uniform, background-checked, and ready to prove it.
Training and Support Built Into the Model
You don’t need to be a master locksmith on day one. Preston Locksmith & Security trains technicians on premium hardware including Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Abloy, Baldwin, and Sargent, alongside everyday Schlage, Kwikset, and Yale. From residential deadbolts to high-security commercial cylinders, the training covers it. The brand also gives you the operational playbook: pricing standards, the written guarantee process, the 365-Day Done Right Promise workflow, and the visibility tools that keep customers informed from the first call to the final invoice.
Limited Territories Available
We’re not carpeting the country with locations. Each Preston Locksmith & Security territory is independently owned and operated, and a limited number of protected territories remain in each state. Once a market is claimed, it’s off the table. If you’ve been thinking about owning a service business with a real brand behind it, now is the time to raise your hand. Your market won’t wait, and we won’t hold it open indefinitely.
