Locksmith story line

[yenralb]

Have you ever thought of all the interresting situations a locksmith could get into?

Have been enjoying the various story themes and noticed that none of them were about the adventures of the "dedicated" locksmith! Such as:
Opens door for spouse, ends up in middle of family dispute.
Maiden has lost husband who had key for chastity belt.
He swallowed handcuff key.
Opens br door finds suicide attempt, saves maiden.
Opens bedroom door mom sees daughter with bf.
Opens car door then has to undo cuffs.
Girls accidentally (or from accident) locked in back of limousine.
Opens house door, getting "payment", owner walks in.
Called to secure .......... finds self in middle of illegal operation.
Called to rekey brothel.
Locksmith and psychiatrist deal with naked inmate.
Boy scouts help find lost car keys.
Unlocks door for heir only to find out it is a bondage room.
Locksmith of vacation with his picks opens cabin lock and saves group of girls from the elements.
Cross country train trip, coach door locked, engineer has heart attack, locksmith opens door & saves train in time.
... and so many more.

I suspect some could be quite titilating.

This sounds like seed for a very long LOCKSMITH series. The LS comes across numerous sexual situations and fetishes and of course is invited to participate in many. Do they open the locked chains binding a monster? Do they rescue the victims of the old song: Oh dear, what can the matter be? / Seven old ladies locked in a lavot'ry / There were there from Monday till Saturd'y / Nobody do they were there" ?? I could visualize a mixed-sex pair of locksmiths, a master and apprentice maybe. There's also room for magic, lockpicks and breakers, digital security systems, historical settings, all sorts of stuff. Yes, this could be a very successful franchise. Go for it!

Just put up for a discussion opener.

Not an author, just a reader. Just thought this might tickle the fancy of someone that might be suffering writers block.

Woman calls a locksmith to her house and brings him to her husbands home office which he has recently changed the lock to. She suspects he is having an affair and wants to snoop.

he gets her in and there is a filing cabinet also locked she tells him to work on opening that while she looks around. She finds proof in his desk(what? Fill in the blank, maybe racy pictures of a young girl."

She's so pissed off that he's been cheating on her that she turns to the lock smith and asks him how would he like to help her get some payback?

I like the chastity belt idea. Set it in medieval times and you've got some good period romance/smut.
