A locksmith whose van is already on this side of the Gateway.
Palara Street sits between the Gateway and the Pacific, so both runs are open to us. We quote the job in one number on the phone and hold to it at the door.

What the southside actually needs
Newer estates with modern hardware, older lowset brick behind them, and a lot of double garages with a side door nobody has ever locked.
House and townhouse lockouts
Front doors, laundry doors, garage side doors and sliders. Picked or bypassed so the hardware survives and nothing needs replacing.
Car lockouts
Air wedges and long reach tools in the driveway or the street, and replacement keys cut and programmed beside the car when the key is lost rather than inside.
Lost keys and rekeying
Cut to the lock on site, or the barrel rekeyed so the missing key is dead everywhere. If it went with your address attached, rekey.
Garages and sheds
Side doors, roller door locks and shed padlocks. The garage is how most opportunistic break-ins actually start, and it is usually the least secured door on the property.
Break-in repairs
Doors, jambs, strikers and screen frames made secure the same night, photographed first so your insurer has what it needs.
Deadlocks and keyed-alike sets
Deadbolts to AS 4145, one key for house, garage and gate, and restricted profiles where copies should not be possible at a hardware counter.
A new house with builder-grade locks is not as secure as it looks.
Estate handover packs are built to a price. The front door usually has a decent deadlatch and everything else has the cheapest hardware that passes. The garage side door and the back slider are where it shows.
- Builder hardware assessed honestly, door by door
- Garage side doors and sliders upgraded first
- Keyed alike so an upgrade does not mean more keys
- Restricted profiles available where copies matter
- Everything quoted before work begins
- Licensed, insured and happy to show it

What people ask us most
How fast can you get here?
Ten to twenty minutes across the southside. We give an honest figure and ring if the motorway changes it.
Does the quote include everything?
Yes. Call-out and labour in one number, before we leave. Extra work only if you ask for it and agree to the price.
Our house is new. Do the locks need upgrading?
Often the front door is fine and the rest is not. We will tell you honestly which doors matter and which are already adequate.
Can one key run the house and the garage?
Usually yes. Keying alike is inexpensive at the time of an upgrade and means one key instead of four on the ring.
Is there a night surcharge?
No. The same price at any hour of any day.
What do you need from me?
Photo ID matching the address, or ID and proof of ownership for a vehicle. Every job, every time.
Shut out of the house or the car?
One call gets a locksmith from Palara Street, a price that will not move, and a time we will make.
