    Absolutely saved my butt this afternoon. I called at 4:55pm in a panic from locking myself out of the house... as you do.. and this marvelous guy answered the phone promptly, was at my residence within 20 mins and into the house in literally a minute. Lifesaver ! Would definitely reccomend.

    Can’t rate this business highly enough. I lost my keys for a 2005 hilux. Asked for a quote over the phone and availability. The quote was fair and the technician was available and 10mins away. The technician arrived 10mins later and was very professional. I changed my mind and decided to get an additional key cut and programmed. They were all too happy to accommodate. All up in less than an hour from phone call to completion, I went from having 0 keys to having 2 keys cut and programmed

    My son's car was broken into and a key stolen for his other car. We called another locksmith and after he stuffed us around with zero communication, we called Nathan. He showed up first thing in the morning, and within less than 20 minutes, he had the key cut! He was also $200 cheaper than the original bloke we had contacted. Fast, friendly and affordable!

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.
