    Great service, let me come to his house at a minutes notice - paid $250 for a remote key for my triton. Would recommend!

    Top service! Was the only locksmith that said they could help me with my issue. He came on the same day and fixed the issue in just half hour. Price was very reasonable and less than half the price I’d been quoted by the dealership.

    I don't/won't go elsewhere. They have been at Christine's Beach forever. Always helpful, even just to advise. I had all my doors redone to one key. Very efficient. Extremely helpful. The whole experience was pleasant and professional. Can not recommend them enough.

    The person who answers the phone is an abrupt and condescending, rude man. I'm glad I pushed through that, because the experience, other than his attitude, was great! Very fair pricing, prompt booking...

    The person who answers the phone is an abrupt and condescending, rude man. I'm glad I pushed through that, because the experience, other than his attitude, was great! Very fair pricing, prompt booking and the person who came out, Tom, knew his stuff, is professional, on time, friendly. I'd use them again.

    This truely is the best review I’ve ever given on Google reviews. Not only was Aaron able to help cut a brand new car key from two broken pieces, but he was helpful both over the phone and in his shop. Affordable price and went back to get a second key cut. Much appreciated and would recommend to anyone needing a key cut to use southern locksmiths if they’re in the area.

Locksmith costs & guides

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.
Does Southern Locksmiths have a verified ABN?
Yes. Southern Locksmiths has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
