have to sleep sometimes!) mobile lock and safe services that includes
emergency opening of homes, businesses, foreign and domestic automobiles, safes,
vaults or just about anything that has any kind of locking device on it. We can
generate new keys if keys are lost, rekey locks and change the combination of
almost any safe or vault. We design, install and service multi-level masterkey
systems for most brands of lock including Assa high security locks. We install
and maintain mechanical and electronic access control devices, door closers and
openers.
My name is Vic Szilard and I am the
owner/operator of Advanced
Lock & Safe. I have been a full-time locksmith since
March 1988. After completing my certification I opened my first business, Advanced Locksmith in May
1988 and provided shop and mobile locksmith services in High Desert of Southern California. In May 1992 we
moved to Arizona, the Grand
Canyon State, and have been operating out of Fort Mohave ever since. Fort
Mohave is just south of Bullhead City limits on the east side of the
Colorado River, near the California, Nevada and Arizona border junction.

- Flying
- In 1980, at the age of 17, I earned my private pilot's
license in a single-engine Piper Warrior II. By age 21 I had acquired a commercial pilot's license for both single and
multi-engine land aircraft. And at 23, I completed the licensing
requirements for an Airframe and Powerplant mechanic while managing a small airport
in Southern California (Hesperia Airpark). My love of flying continues to this day. I have
logged over 1200 hours of flight time in 17 different types of aircraft. As a
Commercial Pilot, I have piloted scenic flights, performed aerial banner
towing operations and maintenance flights of repaired or restored aircraft.
|
- Computer/Internet
- I have been working with computers since I took my first
computer class in 1981. I was on the Internet (originally ARPANET) and
frequenting BBS and University sites before anyone knew there was an Internet.
|
- Sports
- I was a competitive swimmer for over ten years and worked
as a lifeguard and swimming instructor for the Los Angeles Unified School
District while attending high school in Van Nuys, graduating from Birmingham
High School in 1981. I then went on to play a season of Water Polo at the Los Angeles Valley
College in Van Nuys.
-
- Although no longer a competitive swimmer, water sports are
still a big part of my life, living within a mile of the Colorado River, I regularly
boat, fish, swim
in the river and ride Jet Ski's. Before moving my family to
Arizona, I participated in desert Hare Scramble motorcycle races
in the high desert of California, until a terrible accident left me almost
paralyzed. It was during recovery from spinal surgery that I decided to study to become a
locksmith.

- Hobbies
- My hobbies include: Shooting, Ammunition Reloading, Hunting, Fishing,
Boating, Hiking, 4X4, Camping, Computers/Internet, Video/Still
Photography...just to name a few. :-)
