Training and Support

Your introduction to the Pop-A-Lock® Franchise System begins with the Pop-A-Lock® Franchisee Training Program.

The Pop-A-Lock® Franchisee Training Program introduces you to the various facets of operating one of our franchises, including operations, standards, human resources, administration, accounting, and advertising and marketing. New Franchisee training is conducted at our corporate offices in Lafayette, Louisiana.

This program is followed by technical training for your staff. This training shows you/your staff how to use Pop-A-Lock’s proprietary equipment and techniques to open vehicles. The course includes comprehensive instruction and is conducted at our national training facility in Lafayette, Louisiana.

Should you or one of your employees later become a certified instructor (after completing additional training and meeting other requirements), you will be qualified to train your new technicians locally. You will also receive annual instructor recertification training.

Our franchise compliance specialists will periodically contact or visit your franchise location to perform a field inspection and to meet with you. They will solicit your input and feedback, try to assist you with any operational problems you may be facing, and share best practices throughout the franchise system.

We regularly post updated updated vehicle information and diagrams for our Confidential Opening Manual to a secure website where you will be able to download and print the updates. You and your technicians will also be able to contact a research and development specialist 24 hours a day, seven days a week in the event you need technical assistance to open a vehicle in the field.

By providing you with comprehensive training and support, Pop-A-Lock continues to be the leader in locksmithing and helps to ensure that your new franchise business will have the best possible chance for success.
