      FAQschevron down

      Why should I use a licensed locksmith when I might be able to get a handyman cheaper?

      Because only a licensed locksmith has the skills and authority to perform security work. They must also belong to an approved professional security organisation and adhere to a strict code of ethics to protect your security information.


      Can I have all my locks work with just one key?

      Generally, we can do this, which is very convenient for you as you do not have to carry a huge bunch of keys any longer nor sort out which is the correct key.


      Do we keep a record of key codes?

      No, for your security we never record the codes of standard locks. However, in the case of some high security systems we keep them registered and locked away, but the keys are only issued to people who are authorised in writing.


      Is it cheaper for me to supply the locks?

      No, sometimes people are attracted to purchase a lock in a shop on price. This is often of poor quality although it may look ok on the outside. Also people often purchase the wrong type of lock; meaning is not able to be fitted and then may have the problem of returning it.


      Do locksmiths have a master key to fit all locks?

      No, this is a myth. There are some low security locks which have a very small number of combinations for which there is a limited number of set keys. High security and emergency locks may be designed to open with a master key but this is only by special arrangement and limited to specified locks.


      I've lost my keys to my house, do I have to get new locks fitted?

      No, we can dismantle the lock for you and change the codes inside to fit a new key and the old key won't work anymore. This saves you money.


      Do you have to train to become a locksmith?

      To qualify you must complete the prescribed TAFE course in mechanical engineering specialising in locksmithing. This usually takes at least 4 years to complete and includes an apprenticeship to a locksmithing company. You must also pass a police probity test and belong to an approved security organisation to obtain a locksmith Security Licence.


      Can you copy a restricted key?

      Yes, we can copy keys to restricted systems licensed with our company.


      Can I get a padlock to work with my front door key?

      Yes, we can make you up a padlock to work with your standard front door key.
