Frequently asked questions
What are your opening hours?
We're open 7 days: Monday to Thursday 10am–2:30am, and Friday to Sunday 9:30am–2:30am. That covers late nights and weekends.
How fast can a locksmith get to me in Five Dock?
We're based on Ramsay Road, so we usually reach Five Dock, Drummoyne, Haberfield, Abbotsford, Russell Lea and Concord in 15–25 minutes.
How much does a locksmith cost?
It depends on the job and the lock. Call us with the details and we'll give you a clear price on the phone before we come out.
Can you open my door without damaging it?
In most lockouts, yes. We use non-destructive entry methods so your door and lock stay intact.
Should I change my locks after moving house?
We recommend it. You never know who still has a key. Rekeying or changing your locks is quick and affordable.
Do you install smart and digital locks?
Yes. We supply and fit keypad, fingerprint and app-controlled locks and show you how to set them up.
Which suburbs do you cover?
Five Dock and the whole City of Canada Bay, plus Haberfield, Ashfield, Burwood, Strathfield, Croydon, Leichhardt, Rozelle, Balmain and nearby Inner West suburbs.
How quickly can an emergency locksmith get to me?
We're based in Five Dock, so we usually arrive within 15–25 minutes in the Canada Bay and Inner West area. Closer suburbs like Drummoyne, Abbotsford and Russell Lea are often quicker.
Will you damage my door to get me in?
In most lockouts, no. We use non-destructive entry so your door and lock stay intact. If a lock is broken internally and has to be drilled, we tell you before we do anything.
How long does a car lockout take?
Once we arrive, most car lockouts take only a few minutes.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a lock?
Repairs are often cheaper. We'll tell you honestly which makes sense once we've seen the lock and give you the price before we start.
Should I rekey or replace my locks?
If your locks are in good condition, rekeying is usually the cheaper option. If they're worn, damaged or low-security, replacing them makes more sense.
Will a smart lock fit my door?
Most doors can take a digital lock, though some need minor adjustment. We check your door and recommend a model that fits.
Do I need a deadbolt as well as my door lock?
A good deadbolt adds a strong second lock that is much harder to force than a standard latch, so we recommend one on external doors.
Can you work outside our business hours?
Yes. We're open until 2:30am every night, so we can often do the work after you close.
Who needs a master key system?
Any building with several doors and different people needing different access: offices, shops, strata buildings, schools, clubs and larger homes.
