Steps
Confirm that federal GSA-approved security containers and vault doors use combination locks approved under the applicable federal specification, including the Kaba Mas X-10/CDX-10 family, and that servicing them requires specific certification, not general locksmith experience.
Enroll in a factory-authorized certification course covering installation, setup, combination changes, audit procedures, and basic troubleshooting for the X-10/CDX-10 lock.
Separately pursue GSA container-servicing certification if the work will include neutralizing, repairing, or servicing the security container or vault door itself, not just the combination lock.
Maintain proof of current certification, since only a certified technician is permitted to service, maintain, or repair locks and containers used for classified/government storage.
Track recertification timelines and manufacturer training updates, since lock and container approvals can be revised over time.
Known gotchas
Servicing a GSA-approved container or X-10/CDX-10 lock without the required certification can void the container's approved status for classified storage use, beyond just being a business risk.
Certification is typically tied to a specific lock/container family; a certification for the X-10 doesn't automatically cover other combination-lock models or older container types.
