Frequently Asked Questions about the Find-a-Locksmith Database
Why is my company not listed?
You must be a member of the TAOL to be listed AND you have to let us know you WANT to be listed.
I know several members who are NOT in the data base, why is that?
Some members do not want to be in the database, (for example they may be a institutional member) database inclusion is not mandatory. If you think they SHOULD be listed let them know or email the webmaster and we will contact them.
When I search for a common word like "lock" or "Ontario" why don't I get any results?
By design, any search query that calls up more than roughly 1/3 of the database will not garner any results.
Why won't the database let me make a search? I keep trying and it gives me an error page?
There is a short delay to stop very repetitive searches (like search robots make) just wait for 10 or 15 seconds and try again.
Also rarely some computer that use very strong virus/firewall/security protection programs may screen the cookies needed to run a PHP database. Contact your computer guru if you think this may be the case.
My data is incorrect or missing can I fix in myself?
No, Please email the administrator or the office for changes.
