    We couldn’t be happier with Kara’s Locksmiths, and especially with Nathan! We’d been trying to get a digital lock installed, but after a few frustrating experiences with other locksmiths (either not wanting to take on the job or giving unrealistically low quotes that definitely felt like they would skyrocket later), we were starting to lose confidence. Then we found Nathan. From the very beginning, he was honest, transparent, and incredibly easy to communicate with. It was clear straight away that he’s a genuine local professional who takes real pride in his work. No pushy sales tactics, no vague pricing, just straightforward advice and clear expectations. The installation itself was perfect. I have a very keen eye for detail, and he lined the locks up perfectly, everything looks and works beautifully. On top of that, he was extremely respectful in our home and left the work area spotless before leaving. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy and skilled. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kara’s Locksmiths to anyone. Outstanding service from start to finish!

    Nathan is very responsive with communication anytime, transparent with his reasonable fees, & scheduled a service straight away. I requested him to come back because I forgot another doorlock to be serviced. He came back the next day without hesitation & even waived his Call Out fee. He’s highly recommended.

    Nathan was very professional and helpful. He fixed our front door lock which has been giving us issues (can’t open/lock properly). Other locksmith who attempted to fix the door seemed to put “band aid” solution. Nathan replaced the problematic spare part and it’s now working smoothly. He also replace the bedroom lock promptly. Will definitely keep Karas Locksmith in my phone contact.

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