Turnkey Locksmith Business
Business Description
Established locksmith business specializing in automotive, residential, and commercial services, including advanced key programming and high-end lockouts. The company is well-positioned for growth through increased marketing and dealer relationships.
This sale includes a fully equipped 2019 Nissan NV200 service van, AutoProPAD programming machine, electric key cutting machine, manual key cutting machine, duplication machine, and a full suite of tools for auto, residential, and commercial lockout needs—essentially a complete mobile locksmith shop ready to operate from day one. Assets total approximately $45,000 in value.
The business is supported by a skilled full-time technician with 10+ years of experience, who is willing to take on all operating hours to expand his role. This provides a buyer the option of semi-absentee ownership or hands-on involvement.
The current owner works just ~20 hours per week on an on-call basis, creating an excellent work-life balance while maintaining steady income. Currently operating with no marketing, only google reviews, with the right investment in marketing (Google ads, SEO, dealership expansion), revenues could grow substantially.
Buyer can operate under the seller’s license during the licensing process (typically 6 months). Seller is willing to provide training and transitional support.
Financials show a dip in 2023-2024 because the owner took extended time off to travel and worked only part of the year; performance has normalized since. 2025 is on pace to far exceed prior years, though books are not prepared until end of year.
Highlights:
Discretionary Earnings: Approx. $65K+ (with ad backs and cash adjustments)
Assets Included: ~$45,000 (Van, AutoProPAD, key cutting machines, full locksmith toolset)
Staff: Owner-technician and 1 experienced full-time technician, willing to expand hours
Flexible ownership model: owner-operator or semi-absentee
Growth potential with marketing & dealer account expansion
Please refer to listing #2301-197521 and ask for Chet Batson when inquiring.
