Minuteman Locksmithing
Minuteman Locksmithing is a locksmith business in Longmont, Colorado covering automotive, commercial, and residential work. The site describes the owner as a Longmont native who grew up locksmithing because it was a family profession, attended Skyline High School and then the United States Military Academy at West Point, graduated with the Class of 2012, and served 12 years as an Artillery Officer in the 4th Infantry Division and the 101st Airborne Division before returning home to run his own small business. The business is described as veteran-owned, locally owned, and locally operated, and the pitch is that you reach a real human who lives nearby rather than a call center that cannot answer your questions. Automotive work covers lost keys, crafting new keys, key programming, and push-to-start models, including car key fobs for push-to-start vehicles, with appointments often available same day for lost-key jobs. The site notes that almost all domestic and Asian vehicles are no problem while some manufacturers, mostly Land Rover and BMW, are not covered, and that there is no charge in the rare case a key cannot be produced for your vehicle. Commercial work covers surveillance cameras, door and lock repair on metal doorways, and changing how a door functions, with a stated goal of helping business owners protect their investments through asset protection, access control, and monitoring. Residential work covers move-in rekeys and lock changes, home security hardware options that do not require a monthly fee, and repairs to doors that no longer operate the way they should.
