Greg Perry Locksmith/Safecracker is the work of a locksmith whose career in the trade began in 1974, when he cut his first 1,000 keys while working in a hardware store in the Los Angeles area. He moved into security sales shortly after, covering much of the Indian Wells Valley and the Los Angeles basin, and continued in that field until 1985. He took to the craft quickly and built on that foundation through ALOA and SAVTA classes, which he now teaches himself. In 2008, he took a civilian building security role at China Lake Naval Base, where he spent 18 years as a locksmith and security expert. In 2025, he retired from that role and fully launched his own locksmith business, which had been a side endeavor for nearly 20 years. In January 2024, he hired Dakota, his son-in-law, whose background in electronics and computer repair made him a fit for the automotive side of the work as vehicles became more computer-driven. The shop sits on Upjohn Avenue, about half a mile from Faller Elementary School and Bowman Road, roughly 1.4 miles from REALMS Charter School and Stauffer Park, and about 1.5 miles from South Downs Street. A 5.00 rating from customers who have reviewed the business reflects the standard Greg Perry Locksmith/Safecracker has set across automotive, residential, commercial, and safe work in the Indian Wells Valley.
