BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Established 40+ yrs, Blue chip customer list, many growth opportunities.

Company is a well-established locksmith selling & servicing access control, grand master systems, cameras, door closer, vehicle remotes and safes to businesses, large corporations, mega-churches and homeowners primarily in Dallas Fort Worth Texas area, but also across Texas. Services range from a simple key duplicate to drilling safes to massive access control jobs in 20-storey buildings and can be provided at the shop or mobile.

Customers are primarily repeat and referral. There is a lot of room for growth with proper advertising, networking and adding techs to take on larger volumes. Seller estimates that sales are approximately 55% parts, 25% labor, 10% access controls, 8% shop and 2% safes. Seller further estimates that they have an established customer base over 20,000+ active customers. Top 10 clients are estimated to total 20% of sales with the largest customer representing approximately 6.2%. Walk-in sales account for approximately 20.7% of sales and represent 100’s of customers. The business has an excellent trade customer resource program

NOTE: Seller PREFERS that Prospective Purchasers have locksmith and access control industry experience and current licensing (or ability to be licensed).

Owner primarily oversees the business and financials. Company's well-trained and long-tenured employees hold all necessary licenses and perform all day-to-day operations. An outside accountant handles payroll, financial reporting and taxes. Business has an exceptionally long track record of higher profitability. While the owner has excellent industry knowledge, they readily admit that as they near retirement, they lack the initiative and motivation to profitably grow the business in recent years. The owner represents that the business has excellent books & records and can prove all sales & expenses. The owner takes regular vacations and relies on the trusted, trained employees to operate the business while they are away.

The owner feels that there are many growth opportunities for an aggressive new owner. The business has a strong, central Dallas-Fort Worth location, skilled staff, good reputation and state of the art facility. The business operates primarily as a word of mouth “niche business”. The owner estimates that the business is only running at ~30% capacity. Capacity can be significantly increased by adding techs and service vehicles, improving schedule efficiency and pursuing existing sales opportunities.

If required by a commercial lender, seller will consider financing up to 10% of the price to a purchaser qualified/approved by Seller.
