About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Oregon regulates locksmiths through the Construction Contractors Board (CCB) — a locksmith who installs, services, or rekeys locks and security hardware needs a CCB locksmith services endorsement. ORS 701.081 sets the bond for this endorsement at $15,000.

The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: a three-party arrangement among you (the principal), the surety, and the State of Oregon through the CCB (the obligee), with the customers you serve as the protected parties. If the CCB issues a final order against you under ORS 701.145, the surety pays up to the bond amount.

Oregon's locksmith licensing requirements are set out in ORS 701.485 to 701.499 and administered alongside the CCB endorsement. The bond must stay active for the life of your license — a lapse suspends it, so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $15,000 filing continuous.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Oregon locksmith services bond?The premium is $135 — the price our carrier's rate book sets for this fixed $15,000 bond, the same for every locksmith. The bond amount is set by ORS 701.081, so there is no quote process.

Do I pay the $15,000?No. You pay $135. The $15,000 is the surety's maximum liability if the CCB issues a final order against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

Why does the CCB regulate locksmiths?Oregon brought locksmith licensing under the Construction Contractors Board (ORS 701.485 to 701.499). A locksmith services endorsement, including this $15,000 bond, is how the state licenses the trade and protects consumers.

Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information — most CCB bonds like this one approve instantly with no credit section at all. If a quick check ever needs to run, it's a soft pull only and never affects your score.

When does it renew?CCB licenses renew every two years. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term, and we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your license never lapses over a missed email.
