    Best locksmith ever! And I’ve had to call locksmiths a few times in the last few years as I have a bad habit of locking myself out of the house. When I called at 10pm, Ned answered straight away and said he’d arrive in 20 min. He arrived in 15 - and then spent a good hour drilling out my very tough old deadlock, and replaced it with a new one with keys. Super friendly and very persistent on a tough job. Fee was excellent as well. Highly recommended from a Newtown / Enmore resident! Thanks Ned :) lifesaver!

    I can't say enough good things about Ned. He responded to messages quickly, moved his calendar around to fit me in and then did a great job in challenging circumstances all for a very reasonable price. Plus he's the perfect gentleman, working happily alongside my furry friend! Will definitely use him again for any future work - highly recommended!

Frequently asked questions

How much do locksmiths typically charge?
Costs vary depending on the job — a simple key cut or rekey is usually much less than emergency entry or full hardware replacement. This page shows live pricing for local providers to help you compare options. Many locksmiths charge a call-out fee plus an hourly labour rate and materials, and after-hours or emergency work generally attracts higher rates.
Do locksmiths charge call-out fees?
Call-out fees are common and typically cover travel and the initial assessment. This fee is usually separate from labour and materials and may apply even for quick or small jobs. It's worth confirming any call-out or minimum charge when getting quotes.
Do locksmiths need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Locksmithing is a licensed occupation across Australia, and in NSW licences are issued by the NSW Police Force — Security Licensing & Enforcement Directorate (SLED). You should expect a provider to display a valid state security licence number and to hold industry credentials such as MLAA, LGA or ASIAL membership, a Certificate III in Locksmithing, an ABN with GST registration and appropriate public liability insurance.
