Finleys Locksmithing
is hereby recognized as a
TOP GUN Professional Business!
Mike Finley, you are considered a champion business owner for building and managing Finleys Locksmithing, a locksmith company in Santa Fe County.
Small businesses are the backbone of an economy.
The owners of small businesses are entrepreneurs who often take significant financial and business risks, provide employment opportunities, and contribute their creativity, experience, and ingenuity to the overall commerce of a local community, town, city, and county. Many business owners work long hours, endure challenging times, and make personal sacrifices in order to serve their customers and build businesses they can be proud of.
Our research team at Expansion Support Services, owners of the County Advisory Board, identified Finleys Locksmithing as a business that is appreciated by its customers and provides valuable locksmith services throughout Santa Fe County.
The story behind Finleys Locksmithing is one built on service, experience, and an unexpected second chapter in a long and successful career.
After leaving the United States Army in 1975, Mike Finley worked several different jobs while deciding what direction he wanted to take professionally. That changed when he came across an advertisement for a position as a locksmith apprentice. Mike took the opportunity and quickly fell in love with the locksmithing industry.
What began as an apprenticeship developed into what Mike describes as a glorious career in the locksmith profession. He spent many years in the Phoenix area working with different locksmith companies, gaining extensive hands-on knowledge and experience along the way.
Eventually, Mike decided it was time to retire and moved to Santa Fe to enjoy retirement. However, retirement did not last forever. One day, Mike needed locksmith assistance with one of his older vehicles and discovered that he had difficulty finding someone locally who could handle what he needed. With decades of locksmithing knowledge behind him, Mike recognized a need in the Santa Fe market.
Combined with the fact that he was getting a little bored sitting around retired, that need gave Mike a reason to get back to doing something he truly enjoyed. Finleys Locksmithing was born.
Today, Mike brings his years of experience and an old-fashioned approach to customer service to every call. One of the things that separates Finleys Locksmithing from many larger companies is simple: when customers call, the owner answers the phone—not a robot or an impersonal automated system.
Mike personally shows up for his service calls and believes customers deserve honest, straightforward, friendly service with a smile—just like the old days. Customers are dealing directly with the experienced locksmith responsible for the work, from the initial phone call through the completion of the service.
That personal accountability, combined with Mike’s decades of locksmithing experience, is at the heart of what Finleys Locksmithing represents.
When Mike isn’t helping customers, he enjoys spending his free time outdoors, particularly fishing and hunting—although his passion for locksmithing clearly never disappeared, even after retirement.
The continued success of Finleys Locksmithing speaks to Mike Finley’s dedication, experience, work ethic, and ability to recognize a need within his community and step forward to fill it.
We take this moment to acknowledge and thank Mike Finley for his service to our country and for the past, present, and future contributions that Finleys Locksmithing makes to the residents and businesses of Santa Fe County.
