    Highly recommend this place. Its professional, budget friendly, fast and efficient. Got my key cut and replaced on the spot and it took under an hour. If you require an automotive key replacement, forget anyone else but this place, they give you a rough qoute over the phone, arrive on time and are friendly to deal with. The only negative is that this place isn't ranked 1st on google as its one of the best locksmiths around.

    My car was broken into and they had ruined the entire key barrel lock. I called up First Choice Locksmiths and it was a really smooth experience to have Ben one of the techs to come down the same day on short notice. Friendly, knowledgeable and really great service. Helped relieve a lot of the stress of having my car broken into the same morning. Highly recommended.

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.
