Now you don’t have to break the bank for insisting upon SUPERIOR PROTECTION for your home or business, and–tonight you’ll sleep like a baby, AND STILL SAVE MONEY!

Dear Reader,

Every day more and more people are becoming aware of the danger posed to their homes and businesses by the internet phenomenon known as key bumping. News stories have been broadcast throughout the nation and across the world describing the key-bumping technique, and sounding alarm bells over the undeniable threat presented by bump keys.

Things have gotten to the point where you really have to ask yourself whether ANYBODY is looking out the American people anymore-and, if not, then why not? HOW DID WE EVER FORGET THAT WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT, AND THAT THE PROBLEMS WHICH THREATEN SOME OF US TODAY MAY COME TO THREATEN ALL OF US TOMORROW?

Well, key bumping is one of those threats, and the danger it presents is coming very soon to a neighborhood near you!

I’ve been a locksmith for a long time now, and have built my entire career around protecting the lives and livelihoods of thousands upon thousands of South Florida residents who were only marginally aware of the vulnerability of their homes and businesses until they met me. Sure, all of you understand the need to have locks on your doors just as surely as you need shoes on your feet, but you need to understand the topics of safety and security in greater depth to be well- protected.

No one in his right mind would deposit his money in a bank with cheap, discount- store camera systems, or a vault door which couldn’t be properly secured! But people routinely choose to protect their valued treasures, home offices, vehicles and EVEN THEIR FAMILIES behind locks designed for a kinder, gentler time.

It may shock you to think that the pimple-faced dropout from the house next-door may very well be on his mom’s computer ordering a $2 dollar key that he can use to break into half the houses in the neighborhood, and it may shock you even more to know that these keys are being sold by the hundreds of thousands nationwide, and all over the internet! You might also find it stunning to learn that, because key-bumping leaves very little evidence of illegal entry, your insurance company just might refuse to pay your burglary claim, or worse yet, accuse you of pulling an inside job on your own house. I’m as amazed as you are, and I’ve seen almost everything you can imagine!

Keeping in mind that these are the signs of the times, and that it’s not too late to take charge of your own life, LET ME TEACH YOU HOW YOU CAN BUTTON UP EVERYTHING YOU CHERISH, WHILE AVOIDING THE HIGH COSTS USUALLY ASSOCIATED WITH TODAY’S HIGH-SECURITY LOCKING SYSTEMS .

Over the years lock manufacturers have made various efforts to stay ahead of the crime curve when it comes to building effective locking systems, and some worked at it harder than others. And (surprise!) others were content to just leave things as they were, hoping that homeowners would blame their break-in on the thief, and not on the flimsy lock they had purchased for their door. Well, that excuse simply doesn’t cut it anymore, and neither do companies which put big profits ahead of the welfare of the people they’re promising to protect!

Violent crime is way up. Burglary rates are staggering! Parents are demanding that schools provide greater protection for their children during classes. At the same time, their own homes remain at risk, and their businesses are under-protected.

For the longest time, the majority of locks available for residential and commercial security consisted of the usual suspects, such as Schlage, Kwikset, Dexter, Weiser, and the like. Some lock designs were better than others,and to their credit , a few of these companies made periodic efforts to upgrade the security of their locking systems. Unfortunately for them and for us, the consumers, these companies were caught flat- footed upon the arrival of the key bumping threat. The only real solution to the problem was to purchase a high-security locking system such as Medeco, or a few others. While always an excellent choice, the biggest drawback for me in selling these products was the price tag.

Enter the Master Lock Company, with (in my opinion) the most exciting new line of residential and commercial security products to come down the pike in a long, long time. They have recently introduced BumpStop Deadbolts, which prevent both picking and key-bumping. They have introduced the new (and very clever) Nightwatch Deadbolts, which also prevent picking and key-bumping, with the additional feature of locking someone out, EVEN IF THEY HAVE THE KEY ! (More on this later). And Master Lock, with their brand-new line of American Edge products, has now introduced a line of high security cylinders (which resist picking, bumping, drilling, and also provide a line of keys which cannot be copied) .

All of these products are amazingly priced, and are flying off the shelves of my work truck almost as fast as I can reorder them, SO I SUGGEST THAT THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE FELT THAT YOU NEED TO SLEEP WITH ONE EYE OPEN UPGRADE YOUR LOCKING SYSTEMS NOW.

You can find tons of information on all of these remarkable products sprinkled all over this website, or you may call me at #954 382-2200 to learn even more.

Be safe and happy, and sleep well, ’cause I know I’m gonna.
