The FREE Technical Magazine The Knowledgebase for Todays Locksmith The FREE Technical Magazine Issue 1 February 2016 www.locksmithmag.com1 Bio’s of this months contributors Martin Pink The highly respected locksmith Martin Pick has been at the forefront of the development of tools and techniques for picking, decoding and opening many of today’s toughest locks. Martin has been instrumental in the development of the Genuine Lishi Brand and he wrote the definitive guide to opening car locks called the Genuine Lishi Training Kit. Martin is known around the globe for his knowledge of car lock technology and is highly sought after at locksmith exhibitions and training events around the world. Massimo Bianchi Massimo Bianchi is the Keyline Strategic Planner and he works tirelessly to advance the reputation of the Keyline brand worldwide. Massimo is highly respected throughout the industry for his passion for locks and his in depth knowledge of keys, key cloning and cutting machines. This knowledge and passion is built on nearly 350 years of the Bianchi family being at the centre of key development and advancement and they have pioneered many developments in the world of key cutting and car key related technology. Chris Belcher Everyone in the locksmith world knows and respects Chris Belcher and his huge knowledge and understanding of locks and how to defeat them. Chris’s development of the RPCP tools to overcome British Standard Mortice Locks revolutionised the industry, and his genius is seen in the Multi Gauge Mortice Pick - the production of which bamboozled even the best engineers in the UK. Of course to Chris this is just business as usual and comes from his skill as a Submarine Engineer in the Royal Navy for over 30 years, as Chris says, “you can’t nip to B&Q when something goes wrong and you are 1000 feet below the surface”. Richard Bunn Having previously worked as an IT professional Richard went on to train with SAVTA (Safe and Vault Technicians) in the USA. On his return to the UK he went in search for as many locksmiths, safe and automotive training courses he possibly could to refine his skills further. Fifteen years of successful locksmithing later, Richard has specialised as an automotive locksmith and completes over a 1000 ‘lost keys’ jobs per year for customers such as the RAC. 2 Letter from the editor Welcome to the very first edition of Cars, Keys and Locks – the technical journal sponsored by Tradelocks.

  • Crime Prevention Crime Prevention
    Your Do-It-Yourself Crime Prevention Handbook Do-It-Yourself provides the tools you need to avoid becoming a crime victim. CRIME This booklet contains prevention checklists on PREVENTION home security, personal safety and child safety. PREVENTION HANDBOOK LACEY POLICE DEPARTMENT 420 College St SE • Lacey, WA 98503 360-459-4333 www.ci.lacey.wa.us YOUR CRIME The Lacey Police Department prides itself in quality service and working closely with the community to reduce crime. It is imperative that citizens also work to ensure safety and security of their homes, vehicles and each other. Through involvement and education, we want to provide you with the tools to make these security issues easy to understand and hope that through preventative measures alone, some criminal activity can be stopped or convinced to go somewhere else. Criminals do not want to get caught, and look for easy targets as opposed to people or places that appear to have security measures in place. An active and motivated neighborhood can be enough to convince a criminal to move on. The Lacey Police Department realizes we cannot be everywhere all the time and relies on the community to be watchful for suspicious activity and call us with valuable information. Information in this booklet will get you started in the proper direction of better security and safety. Although nothing can prevent a criminal from acting out, if the risk is too high they will typically look for other locations or people to target. A community that works together and in conjunction with law enforcement is more successful in reducing criminal activity and has a better chance of catching those responsible.
