PRAHRAN · OPEN 24 HOURS
Locked out of the car in Prahran
Parked off Commercial Road with the keys on the seat. We open it where it stands, and we can cut a replacement before you have to move for the permit zone.
What this looks like on the day
Prahran is terraces, converted warehouses and a lot of apartments above shops. Building entry doors, intercom-released strikes and small-format euro cylinders come up far more often here than in the suburbs further out.
- Opened kerbside without moving the car
- Automotive picks, no window damage
- Spare cut before you leave the street
What happens when you call
Told the time, and told if it slips
You get a window based on where the van is, and a call if traffic changes it. Not a number picked to keep you on the phone.
One price, said twice
Quoted on the call, repeated at the door, and that is the invoice. No callout fee hiding underneath it.
Quiet, and the lock stays
Picks first, and at 3am in a terrace that matters. Nothing gets drilled unless you have agreed to it and know what replacing it costs.
The same person turns up
Whoever you spoke to is who arrives. No call centre passing your address to whoever answered last.
Other things we do in Prahran
House lockouts
Terrace front doors on the Chapel Street side, and buzzer-entry flats above the shops. We get you through the street door and your own door, and we keep the noise down at 3am.

Lost keys
Share house, three housemates, one set left. We cut clean copies from the cylinder and can rekey at the same time so the set that walked off stops working.
Lost keys and replacement keys →
Rekeying
Between tenancies this is the job that matters most in Prahran. Rekeying the existing cylinders takes under an hour and kills every key handed out over the last five years.
Rekeying and lock changes →
Break-in repairs
Rear laneway doors and ground floor windows are the weak points here. We make the door lock again the same night and tell you honestly what a laneway gate would change.

Security upgrades
Original terrace rim locks look right and stop nobody. A deadbolt behind the period hardware keeps the look and actually secures the door.
