Spare Car Key in Melbourne

Priced on the phone. You get the figure before anyone comes out. You get that figure before anyone sets off, and it is what you pay for the job as described — if the job on site turns out different, it is explained and re-approved before any work starts.

We allow about 45 minutes on site for this one, which is what the diary reserves when you book it — so the time you are given accounts for it rather than being an estimate on top of it.

Yes — this one is priced as vehicle work, under its own rules. If your job is a different kind, the price checker will put you on the right one rather than quoting you the wrong rate, and the same locksmiths do all three.

Call. A phone call is faster than any form, and the person answering can start arranging someone while you talk. If you would rather not speak to anyone, check a price online and pick the earliest time offered — the booking goes to your locksmith the moment you confirm it.

You are given a time window before you book, not after — and it comes from the real diary, so it accounts for the jobs already on it. Nobody here will tell you "twenty minutes" to get you off the phone. If the window we can offer does not work for you, say so and we will tell you honestly what else is possible.

Yes, and it is the same price whether you book online, over the phone or through the assistant — they all read one price list. If something outside that scope turns up once your locksmith is there, they will explain it and get your agreement before doing it. Work you did not agree to is not work you get charged for.

The figure you are shown before booking is the price for the job, not a starting point with extras added afterwards. If a call-out or after-hours amount applies to your job, it is already inside that number and the conditions that produced it are shown with it.

Enter your suburb when you check a price and the site answers immediately — including telling you plainly if you are outside the area, rather than taking a booking it cannot serve. We cover much of metropolitan Melbourne.

Yes, every time, with photo ID and something connecting you to the address or the vehicle — a licence, a rates notice, a lease, a rego paper. It is not negotiable and there is no version of this job where we skip it. It is the same rule that stops somebody else asking us to open your door.
