Thinking beyond the main product lines of day to day business to the ones on the edges – outside your main area of focus – may not come first to mind when you’re looking at making a living from locks. But they are opportunities which can make good returns, so its worth keeping an eye out for them. I always do says Fred of Locksmith Manchester.

Cash boxes for example.

Its surprising how many cash boxes get sold. From the village fete to the office float, you’ll see cash boxes turning up all over the place. At home they’re used for pocket money or for storing all that spare currency thats left over at the end of the holiday. In the office they’re a practical way of storing the cash thats needed day to day for things like coffee, milk and deliveries. Thats exactly what we have in the office says Fred of Locksmith Manchester.

Who’s selling those cash boxes?

They’re a classic opportunity for the locksmith. They dont take up much space either in the shop or in the van, amd they are a good bet for both impulse and pre-planned purchases.

Cash boxes have been one of the growth categories for us at Sterling and we figure that’s partly down to our expanded range. We’ve complemented the classic key option with the addition of an 8” cash box with a simple combination lock as an alternative . We also expect the 10” cash box with coin counter tray pictured above to be a particularly good seller because of the practical coin counting removable tray. Think this is the option for me, never been the best at Maths says Fred of Locksmith Manchester comany. I should invest in a decent calculator!
