Car lockouts and car keys in Cannington
Westfield Carousel on Albany Highway, Cannington station’s bus interchange and the busy roads around Leach Highway, Roe Highway and Manning Road mean a lot of parked cars and a lot of lost keys. We come to the car, open it without damaging it, and for Japanese, Korean and most American cars we can cut and program a new key where it’s parked. Most keys are cut and programmed in about half an hour once we’re at the car, and it’s usually a lot less than going through a dealer, with no towing.
Lost every key? See lost all your car keys. A spare saves a call-out later: spare car keys. All our car work is on the car locksmith page.
Units, townhouses and rentals
Cannington has a lot of units and townhouses, and more than half of homes are rented (2021 Census). That means keys get copied, lost and handed around. After someone moves out, rekeying makes their keys useless without replacing the locks. Locked out at night? See house lockouts. We try non-destructive entry first. In the unlikely event a barrel has to be drilled, we tell you first, then replace the barrel and key it to your existing key at no charge.

Security doors, sliding doors and old locks
Stiff screen-door locks, sliding doors that won’t catch and worn deadlocks are among the most common calls. We repair them on the visit. See security screen door locks and lock installation and repair. If you’d like to stop using keys on the front door, we also fit digital and smart locks.

Why we come to you

It usually costs a lot less than going through a dealer for a car key, and you don’t need to tow the car anywhere.
