Things to consider before you book
The local conditions that shape the job, the best time of year to book, and what to sort out before you choose a locksmith.
Apartment Area
Most properties in Perth are apartments or units. Let your locksmith know the building layout when booking — lift access, parking restrictions, and building noise hours can affect scheduling and equipment logistics.
Check Your Lease Before Booking
Over half of properties in Perth are rentals. If you're a tenant, check your lease before booking locksmith work — some jobs need landlord approval. End-of-lease services are in high demand here, so book well ahead.
Premium Finishes
Properties in Perth typically feature higher-end finishes and fittings. Ask your locksmith about their experience with premium materials — the right techniques and products make a real difference with quality surfaces.
What's in a good Locksmith quote?
A good quote spells out how the job is priced and what's covered (labour, materials, prep and clean-up), so you're comparing like for like. Check what each locksmith's quote covers before you choose.
Worth knowing: getting two or three quotes is the simplest way to land a fair price, and it costs you nothing.
- 01Security licence
The licence number, verifiable with your state regulator.
- 02Callout fee
On its own line, never inside a single lump sum.
- 03Lock brand and model
The exact lock named, not just 'deadbolt'.
- 04Entry method
Pick versus drill; drilling costs more and destroys the lock.
- 05Workmanship warranty
A warranty period, 12 months is the standard minimum.
