Job description

Build a Career in Physical Security

Able Locksmiths, LLC is seeking motivated individuals interested in building a long-term career in the physical security industry. Join our team as a Security Professional I (Locksmith & Access Control Apprentice) and receive hands-on training in locksmithing, electronic access control, door hardware, safes, and other security technologies that help protect homes, businesses, schools, hospitals, and government facilities.
We are a Veteran-owned security company based in Frederick, Maryland. Since 1979, we have helped protect homes, businesses, schools, hospitals, government facilities, and critical infrastructure throughout Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Washington D.C., and beyond.
Unlike many locksmith companies, we do far more than cut keys and unlock doors. Our team works with:
  • Mechanical and electronic locks
  • Access control systems
  • Door hardware and life-safety devices
  • High-security key systems
  • Automotive locksmithing
  • Safe servicing and opening
  • Security audits and consulting
  • Commercial and institutional security systems
This position is ideal for someone who enjoys working with their hands, solving problems, learning technical skills, and helping people. The work is dynamic and varied—one day you may be helping a family secure their home, the next working on commercial door hardware, access control systems, automotive locksmithing, or safe servicing. No two days are exactly alike, making this an excellent career for individuals who enjoy variety, problem-solving, and continuous learning.
No locksmith experience is required. We will train the right candidate.

  • Lock installation and repair

  • Key duplication and key system management
  • Automotive locksmith services
  • Door hardware installation and adjustment
  • Safe servicing and safe lock work
  • Access control fundamentals
  • Professional customer service
  • Security best practices
As your skills grow, so will your responsibilities, compensation, and advancement opportunities.

  • Honest and trustworthy
  • Mechanically inclined
