curiosity, if you call out a locksmith because you've lost
your house keys, how do they satisfy themselves that you are indeed
the owner/occupant of the house?
In my experience they don't.
We've called out two locksmiths (once lost keys, once the lock itself
broke), and I don't remember being asked for any proof. Perhaps they
just figure that if we are burglars, the real owners won't know who
let them in!
Nowadays it's not a problem as we have toddlers and a cat flap :)
