Which automotive locksmith services are available in Ivanhoe East?
Ivanhoe East is one of those pockets of Melbourne where the streets are wide, the gardens are established and everyone seems to know the walk down to the river. Between the big homes along The Boulevard, the regulars at Chelsworth Park and the quiet loop around Ivanhoe Golf Club, a locked car or a dead key fob can throw your whole day out. You shouldn’t have to drive into the city to find a locksmith when you live somewhere this leafy.
We work on cars and motorcycles right where you are, whether that’s a driveway near Ivanhoe East Primary, the car park at Chelsworth Park or a kerb off Lower Heidelberg Road. Lockouts, lost or stolen keys, worn ignitions, dead remotes and spare keys before a trip, we handle it all at the vehicle. Call 0410 380 354 and we’ll come straight to you.
Situations we get called to in Ivanhoe East
Real calls, real streets. If one of these sounds like your day, we can fix it at the car.
Locked out at Chelsworth Park
Finished a walk along the Yarra trail at Chelsworth Park and your key's not in your pocket. We come straight to the car park and get you back into your car, no tow truck needed.
All keys lost after golf
Played a round at Ivanhoe Golf Club and your car keys are nowhere in the bag. We cut and program a new key on site, so you're not stuck waiting for a lift home.
Dead key fob on The Boulevard
Your fob's stopped talking to the car outside a house on The Boulevard and the spare's just as flat. We program a new remote at your kerb, tested before we leave.
Snapped key in the ignition
Twisted the key on Lower Heidelberg Road and it's sheared off in the ignition barrel. We extract the broken piece and cut a fresh key at the kerb, so you're not calling a tow.
Keys shut in the boot at school pickup
Loaded the sports bags into the boot at Ivanhoe East Primary and the keys went in with them. We open the car on the spot without damaging the paint or the boot seal.
Spare key before a trip
Heading over the Chandler Highway to catch a flight and only have one working key between two drivers. We cut a spare at home in Ivanhoe East before you leave.
