If a GSA-approved storage container has been repaired, what certification must you obtain?

• A. Locksmith Certification From The Seller
• B. Government Inspector Certification
• C. Manufacturer's Warranty
• D. Maintenance Log

Answer: (A)

Repairs to a GSA-approved storage container can affect its security features, so any work on the locking system needs verification by a qualified locksmith who is certified by the seller. This certification confirms the repair was done to the manufacturer’s specifications and that the lock remains in the approved configuration for GSA compliance. Without this validation, you can’t be sure the container still meets the security standards for safeguarding classified information.

Other options don’t fit because a government inspector certification isn’t typically issued for post-repair validation, a manufacturer’s warranty covers defects rather than certifying security after a repair, and a maintenance log only records that work occurred without proving the repair maintains the required security configuration.
