    Good service and prices. They should consider doing watch battery replacement as well

    Helped me out when I had an issue with my car key. Fixed it same day, within a few minutes. Definitely a company that seems to want to be of benifit to the community 👍

    We were in need of somebody to install a lock on our caravan door. Not always easy to find someone when you’re travelling. We happened to spot Richard’s van outside a cafe. We interrupted his lunch to ask if he was interested in helping us out. Within an hour or so we had a call from him that he had time to help us out. He was efficient and professional. Thank you Richard. I would definitely recommend this man to anyone in need of a locksmith in the Whyalla area.

    Helped us out when our key broke in the ignition of our van on a Friday evening. All other locksmiths told us we'd have to wait until Monday, but Richard and team stayed late on Friday to get the broken key out and make us a new key. They were extremely friendly, genuine, and hard-working. 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.
