What it costs

One number, said out loud, before I get in the van.

Most people ringing a locksmith are bracing for a surprise at the end. Here's the whole price list instead.

  • No call-out fee when you go ahead with the job
  • Travel anywhere in Geelong included — no per-kilometre charge
  • No after-hours, weekend or public holiday loading
  • Quoted on the phone, and that's what lands on the invoice
  • New lock fitted while I'm thereStandard lockset supplied and fitted on top of the lockout.+$25

  • Digital and smart locksSupplied, fitted and set up with your codes working.Quoted
  • If you decide not to go aheadOnly charged if I've driven out and you send me away.$45

Published price guides put a Geelong house lockout from around $220, with after-hours call-out fees of $100–$250 landing on top before anyone touches the door. I'd rather charge one fair number and keep the phone ringing.

Why people ring me back, and send their neighbours.

Nobody enjoys calling a locksmith. The least I can do is make it the easy part of your day.

  • The bloke who answers is the bloke who turns up

    No dispatcher, no subcontractor, no handover. You speak to me, and I'm the one at your door.

  • The price you're told is the price you pay

    It only changes if you ask for something extra, and I'll tell you what that costs before I do it.

  • Drilling is a last resort, not a shortcut

    Most doors open with picks and patience. If yours genuinely can't, you'll hear the price before anything gets cut.

  • ID before I open anything

    Thirty seconds of paperwork. It's the same check that stops a stranger doing this to your place.

What I do around Geelong

Residential and small commercial work, finished in one visit wherever the parts allow. Common locksets, deadbolts and cylinders live in the van.

  • Shopfronts and commercial doors

    Deadlocks, closers, restricted keys and end-of-fit-out lock-ups.

  • Deadbolts, window and sliding door locks

    Insurance-standard deadlocks, keyed window locks and patio door locks fitted properly.

  • Letterbox locks and garage remotes

★★★★★
Alexis was absolutely fantastic. He came out late at night to change my front door knob and lock, arrived on time, and was really fair with his pricing… I really appreciated how professional and reassuring he was, especially for an after-hours job.
K J. · Change the door knob on the front door
★★★★★
Alexis can not be fault in anyway. He is polite, knows his work well. Open and honest communication if he finds some issue. Went on extra mile to help us with a sliding door lock which had broken screw. Did not charge or say "it is a big job" like some trades do.
Bijma W. · Change door locks
★★★★★
What a legend. So patient, for someone like me who knows NOTHING about technology, he stayed with me while I downloaded the app and all fingerprints were added… Explained EVERYTHING in full detail.
Maria C. · Install Lockly fingerprint lock
★★★★★
Alexis did an excellent job changing all four bedroom locks to key locks. He was punctual, communicated clearly throughout, and the work quality was great. He even took the extra time to align the other door handles so they sit perfectly horizontal.
Fab F. · Replace 4 door handles with key-lock handles
★★★★★
Alexis was highly professional and communicative, an expert at his craft. Got me the locks I needed at no extra cost and was happy to help with any extra door & lock fixes around the house too.
Sam K. · Replace a lock to a sliding door
★★★★★
Alexis did a great job, kudos to him for completing a job such late at night. We appreciate his effort and dedication to completing the job to exceptional standards.
Giannina A. · Deadbolt smart lock and doorbell
★★★★★
Fantastic service. They replaced my lock quickly, professionally, and with great attention to detail. Friendly, reliable, and very easy to deal with.
Graham L. · Replace existing locks
★★★★★
Your responsiveness and communication was really great and appreciated. The door handle and lock looks superb. I especially thank you for your attention to the detail and extra time to make sure my security lock also closes!

Questions I get asked most

How much does a locksmith cost in Geelong?
A standard house lockout with Lock Services is $125 all up — that includes the call-out, my travel, my time and GST. If the lock also needs replacing while I'm there, it's $25 on top for a standard lockset. Rekeying, deadbolts, window locks and smart locks are quoted on the phone before I leave, and the number I give you is the number on the invoice.
How quickly can you get to me?
Around Geelong I'm usually with you inside the hour, and often a lot sooner. Werribee, Tarneit and the western suburbs depend on where I am when you ring. I'll give you an honest arrival time on the phone rather than a number designed to stop you calling someone else.
Do you charge more at night or on weekends?
No. A lockout at 2am is the same price as a lockout at 2pm. There's no after-hours loading and no weekend surcharge.
Will you damage my door or drill the lock?
The vast majority of lockouts open without damage. Drilling is a last resort, not a shortcut — and if a lock genuinely can't be picked, I'll tell you what it will cost to replace it before anything is cut.
What if I've lost my keys altogether?
I can rekey the existing locks so the lost keys no longer work, which is usually cheaper than replacing hardware, or fit new locks and key them alike so one key runs the whole house.
Do you check that I actually live there?
Yes. I'll ask for ID or some proof of residence before I open a door. It takes thirty seconds and it's the same protection that stops someone doing it to your house.
How do I pay?
Card, bank transfer or cash, on the spot. You get a proper tax invoice with GST itemised either way.

Locked out right now?

Ring me. I'll tell you the price, the arrival time, and whether it's something you can sort yourself in two minutes.
