Electronic Security Technicians install, maintain, and repair access control systems as a normal part of their work.  They do not repin locks, repair locks, install locks, or cut keys.  To require an electronic security technician to maintain a second registration does nothing to protect the public safety and substantially increases the costs for a security technician to maintain their registration.

            There has been no resistance by the locksmith industry to this exemption, the requirement does not protect the public safety, and only increases regulation and the costs to the electronic security technician.
