24/7 Locksmith in Randburg
A local locksmith who actually knows Randburg
We're a mobile, round-the-clock locksmith based in Randburg — not a national call centre routing your job to whoever's cheapest that night. Our vans work the whole of Randburg and its surrounds, from the Randburg CBD and Ferndale to the northern estates around Bryanston and Fourways, and out west to Northcliff and Weltevredenpark. When you call, you speak to someone who knows the difference between a Trellidor slam-lock and a multi-point aluminium door — and who can be at your gate fast.
Most of what we do falls into two halves. There's the middle-of-the-night emergency — a lockout, a break-in, a security gate seized shut — where our emergency locksmith in Randburg is dispatched immediately. And there's the planned job — a lock change after you've moved in, a home-security upgrade, or commercial access control for a Randburg office — booked for a time that suits you. Either way, you get a written price before any work starts and non-destructive methods first, so your door and lock stay intact wherever possible. See every area we cover across Randburg.
Locked out this minute?
- Check the other doors and windows first — a back or garage door is open more often than you'd think.
- Don't force a snapped key deeper into the lock; it makes extraction slower and more expensive.
- Locked out at a mall? Wait by your car and let centre security know a locksmith is on the way.
- Have your address ready — and for a vehicle, the make and model — so we route the nearest van.

What Brings People to Us
The situations we're called out for most
Recognise your problem below and go straight to the fix — or just call and describe it. A real technician will tell you honestly what's involved before anyone is dispatched.
You've just moved in
New keys, old problem: you have no idea who still holds a copy — previous owners, agents, tenants, staff. Before your first night in a new place in Bryanston or Randpark Ridge, book a lock change in Randburg on every external door and security gate.
You've lost your keys
A lost bunch is a lost bunch — you can't know where it landed or who picked it up. We change or re-pin the affected locks so the missing keys open nothing, usually in a single same-day lock change.
After a break-in
We come out immediately, secure the property, replace the compromised locks and hand you insurance-friendly paperwork. Our emergency locksmith in Randburg handles the crisis — and this is what a locksmith actually does after a break-in.
A lock or gate has failed
A deadbolt that won't turn, a handle spinning loose, a Trellidor gate seized solid after a Highveld storm. It's often a repair, not a replacement — our lock repair service in Randburg diagnoses both and shows you the honest difference in cost.
Locked out of the car
Keys shut inside in the parking at Fourways or Cresta? Our car locksmith in Randburg reaches roadside call-outs fast and opens most vehicles without a scratch.
Upgrading your security
Rattled by an incident nearby, or fitting out a new office? From high-security home locks to commercial access control in Randburg, we plan it around how you actually live and work — not a generic package.
Straight Pricing
No call-out surprises. Ever.
The worst part of calling a locksmith is not knowing what it'll cost until someone's already standing at your door. We do it the other way round. You're quoted a fixed price up front — on the phone where we can, and always in writing before a single tool comes out. You approve it, then we work. Nothing gets added 'while we're here'.
Fixed price, agreed first
A written quote before any work begins. What we say is what you pay — no on-the-day inflation.
Honest after-hours rates
There's a modest surcharge for genuine 2am call-outs. We tell you on the phone, never at the door.
Card, EFT or cash
Settle on completion once the job's done and you're happy. You'll always get an invoice.

- Non-destructive entry first. Drilling only as a last resort.

What Randburg Says
Six neighbourhoods, one locksmith.
"Locked out at 11pm with a sleeping baby in the car seat. A locksmith was at my gate within 25 minutes and had us inside without a scratch on the door."
"They walked the whole house, told me what was fine as it was and what actually needed upgrading. No pressure, no upsell. Fitted everything the following morning."
"We rolled out access cards across our whole office over one weekend. Staff walked in Monday morning and everything just worked."
"Inherited an old safe with no combination. They opened it without damaging it and had the dial reset the same afternoon."
"After an attempted break-in they came out immediately, replaced the compromised locks and gave me a written report for insurance. Genuinely reassuring service."
"Keys locked in the boot at Cresta parking. Popped the car in ten minutes flat, no damage. Would call again in a heartbeat."
