Who you’re letting in.
A locksmith gets asked to open somebody’s front door, often at night, usually by someone they have never met. These are the details that let you check us before that happens.

Before we open anything
We ask for photo ID and something that connects you to the address or the vehicle.
A licence, a rates notice, a lease, a rego paper. Every time, on every job, with no version of this where we skip it — including at three in the morning when you are cold and it is the last thing you want to hear.
It is the same rule that stops somebody else asking us to open your door.

If something goes wrong
Every job carries a 1 year warranty on our workmanship. What it covers depends on the job and on the parts — ask us what applies to yours.
Anything that turns up outside what you agreed gets explained and agreed before it happens, not added to the invoice afterwards. Destructive entry is the same: if a lock cannot be opened any other way, you hear that first and decide.
Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.
Who else is worth a call
We do our own automotive work — car lockouts, lost keys cut and coded, spare keys, remotes, ignitions and immobilisers. None of it goes to anybody else.
Melbourne is a large city and we are a small business, so there are nights when the honest answer is that somebody closer can get to you sooner. Budget Auto Keys is a mobile car key specialist working across Melbourne, and they send the residential and commercial jobs they do not take our way. We are glad to say the same about them.
