What
is Forensic Locksmithing?
Forensic
examination and interrogation of locking systems and
electronic
security systems is often necessary in
the resolution of matters such as fraud and criminal
investigations and also where insurance claims are disputed.
ABC Forensic Locksmiths is equipped to provide you with
a professional determination as to whether your exhibit
has been subjected to breach or bypass. We arrive at
these findings through the examination of your exhibit
using a range of specialised tools including microscope,
borescope and advanced digital and multimedia equipment.

Any
points to note when providing information?
To
avoid any possibility of bias we request that information
not relevant to the forensic examination be withheld.
For example names, witness statements, investigators
reports. All
reports are produced in accordance with the provisions
of the Code of Conduct for Expert Witnesses as defined
by Part 28 and 28A of the District Court Rules.

How
secure are the exhibits passed on to be examined?
We
regard the security and continuity of exhibits as a
high priority. To this end, all exhibits are recorded
on receipt
and are kept on secure premises. Our lab facility is
used exclusively for forensic examination and is secured
by patrols and back to base alarm. The address is not
available to the public.
