It is late, the door is shut, and you are still outside.
We are twelve minutes from most of Cleveland, Ormiston and Wellington Point. Ring the number, describe the door, and you will be given a price and a time before anyone starts the van.
Homes, units, shopfronts and cars — opened without breaking the lock.
- Price quoted on the phone
- Licensed & insured in Queensland
- ID checked at the door, both ways
- Open every day of the year
Every kind of shut door
All of it done at your address, from the van, with the hardware already on board. Nothing is ordered in and nothing is left half-finished.
- Emergency lockouts — front doors, back doors, screen doors and deadlocks, opened without damage
- Car lockouts — doors opened, transponder keys and remotes cut and coded
- Lost keys — cut on site, or the barrel rekeyed so the missing key stops working
- Rekeying — after a move, a break-up, a tenant leaving, or a set that never came back
- Break-in repairs — doors, frames, strikers and jambs put back together the same night
- Restricted keys — profiles the hardware shop cannot copy, for shops and unit blocks
- Safes — opened, serviced and recombinated
Salt air is quietly eating your locks
Anywhere within a couple of streets of the water — Cleveland Point, Raby Bay, Ormiston, Wellington Point — locks age faster than they do inland. Salt gets into the cylinder, the springs bind, and one morning the key turns halfway and stops.
That is not a broken key and it usually is not a broken lock. It is a cylinder that needed cleaning and the right lubricant a year ago.
- Cylinders stripped, cleaned and re-lubricated properly
- Marine-grade and coastal-rated hardware where it earns its keep
- Sticking keys fixed before they snap in the door
- Screen and sliding door locks, the first thing salt takes

What people ask at midnight
From Wharf Street, most of Cleveland, Ormiston and Wellington Point is ten to fifteen minutes. Capalaba, Victoria Point and Redland Bay a little more. You get a real number on the phone, not a hopeful one.
Rarely. Most doors open with picks or a bypass and the lock works afterwards exactly as it did before. Drilling is for locks that are already seized or broken, and it never happens before you have heard the price and said yes.
We ask for something that ties you to the address — a licence, a lease, a rates notice. It takes half a minute, and it is exactly what stops anyone else paying us to open your door.
Usually not. On the bayside that is nearly always salt and grit in the cylinder. Forcing it is how keys snap off inside the lock. Stop turning it, ring us, and it is normally a clean and service rather than a new lock.
Nights, weekends and public holidays cost more than a Tuesday afternoon, the same as any locksmith. The difference is that you are told the figure before we drive, not after the door is open.
