Our next meeting is going to be May 21st at 1:00PM

MINNEAPOLIS LOCK and KEY

4448 Nicollet Ave So, Minneapolis, MN 55409

We will be learning all about the wonderful world of Best/small format interchangeable cores. The pinning, the capping, the systems, oh the LOVE!!

This will be courtesy of our very own Joyce Stone, who has been a locksmith for MPHA for many years. 

We also will be holding our meeting, so bring your tweezers, cheaters, and thinking caps because we've got an awesome and fun filled afternoon!

Professional locksmiths across the nation have been looking to implement state or federal licensing and registration to assure customers that they are masters of their trade, and set themselves apart from the "scammers" and  "hacks" who continually tarnish the reputation. All of us are proud of our level of skill and would be honored to display our certification. We would love to be able to prove our expertise and help differentiate the from scammers and the wanna-be's.

As security professionals, we realize the importance of what we do and why it's equally important to make sure it's done correctly by the right people. But what about beyond the service. Beyond the security barrier. It's important to know that you can trust the person doing the work. What happens when you can't. The following article shows a darker side of why licensing should be more important to the government and the general population.
