Locksmith businesses listed on BizBuySell are generally categorized into mobile/home-based services, full-service companies, and regional providers. Mobile locksmiths often run without a storefront, offering flexible, low-overhead operations that specialize in automotive key programming, lockouts, and rekeying for both residential and commercial clients—frequently appealing to owner-operators. Full-service locksmith companies typically combine storefront and mobile operations, delivering a broad range of services including emergency lockouts, safe installations, and access control systems. Regional providers boast decades of operation, strong reputations, recurring commercial and government contracts, and integrated security services such as CCTV and alarm systems.
