You are listening to an interview with LockRadio.com 1-800-UNLOCKS ® was founded in 1994 . Jeff Musser had been a locksmith for over a decade and realized that with the beginning of the technological advancements, there had to be a way to make finding a locksmith easier than searching for a locksmith in 20 pages of ads. For almost 2 years Jeff researched the concept of having an automated locksmith dispatching system that covered the United States from coast to coast. In October of 1995 the trademark was granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in Washington, DC. In 1997 ULI did their first ALOA show and turned out to be the start of a concept that was very much welcomed within the industry. In the summer of 2003 Barry Wilson, owner of American Lock and Key Co., Inc. in Richmond, VA, became the new owner of the trademark for1-800-UNLOCKS ®.There have been several articles written about us in trade related magazines such as The National Locksmith and the Locksmith Ledger.
