Summary

Existing law provides for the licensure and regulation of locksmiths and the registration of employees of locksmiths by the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services in the Department of Consumer Affairs. Existing law exempts from that regulation and licensure or registration certain individuals and practices, including, among others, a person registered with the bureau as an employee of a repossessor, if the duties of the person that constitute locksmithing are ancillary to the primary duties and functions of the person's position. Existing law, the Alarm Company Act, also provides for the licensure and regulation of alarm company operators and the certification and registration of employees of alarm companies, including alarm agents, by the bureau. This bill would expand the exemption from licensure as a locksmith or registration as an employee of a locksmith to include a person who is licensed, certified, or registered with the bureau pursuant to the Alarm Company Act if the duties of the person that constitute locksmithing are performed in combination with the installation, maintenance, moving, repairing, replacing, servicing, or reconfiguration of an alarm system, as defined, and limited to work on electronic locks or access control devices that are controlled by an alarm system control device, including the removal of existing hardware. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
