What to look for when hiring a locksmith in Bethlehem

  • Insurance and references matter most here. Pennsylvania does not issue a state license for locksmiths, so ask for proof of liability insurance and a local business registration instead. Pennsylvania does not license locksmiths, so get a written price before work begins and a business name and address you can check.
  • Written estimates. Any locksmith who won't put the scope in writing is a red flag.
  • Review quality, not just volume. Read the 3-star reviews, they're usually the most honest.
  • Local references. A locksmith who's done work in South Side or West Side will understand local housing stock better than a regional chain.
