ASCOT VALE · OPEN 24 HOURS
Ascot Vale locksmith. Flats, period homes, mailboxes and all.
Walk-up flat entry doors, older timber frames and mailbox locks. Ascot Vale, Moonee Ponds and Flemington, day or night.
What happens when you call
These are new numbers, so there is nothing to quote back at you yet. What we can tell you is exactly how the job runs.
A time that allows for the course
Race days change the roads around here and we build that into the number we give you rather than finding out later.
Quoted before we leave
One figure on the phone, the same at the door and on the invoice, after hours included.
Opened rather than replaced
Picks and bypass tools first. On a flat entry door that everyone shares, that matters more than usual.
The person you spoke to
Whoever answers is who arrives. Nothing gets handed to a contractor you have not spoken to.
What we do in Ascot Vale
Six things make up nearly all of our work. Anything outside them, ask – if it is not something we do properly we will say so.
House lockouts
Walk-up flats around the racecourse end and period homes down near the river. The flats need the entry door and your own door sorted; the houses usually need a swollen timber frame eased.

Car lockouts
Locked out on Union Road or in a flat car park off Maribyrnong Road. We come to the car and open it where it is.

Lost keys
Flat keys, mailbox keys and a laundry key that nobody has seen since 2019. We cut the set, and mailbox locks we can usually replace on the spot.
Lost keys and replacement keys →
Rekeying
Flats change hands often and the key count is always higher than the lease says. Rekeying resets it in one visit without touching the door.

Break-in repairs
Mailbox banks get levered and flat entry doors get pushed at the strike. Both are same-night fixes and we tell the agent what we did in writing.

Security upgrades
On a flat, the entry door strike and a proper deadlock do more than anything else. On the period houses it is usually the back door that has been ignored.
Deadlocks and security upgrades →Working in Ascot Vale
Ascot Vale runs from period homes near the river to walk-up flats around the racecourse end. Flat entry doors, mailbox locks and older timber frames that have swollen out of square are the steady calls, and each needs a different set of parts on the van.
We work from 8 North St, a short run from Union Road and Flemington Racecourse.
