Which automotive locksmith services are available in Ivanhoe?
Ivanhoe sits above a bend of the Yarra, all tree-lined streets, period homes and a train line into the city that plenty of locals rely on every day. Between the shops on Upper Heidelberg Road, the station car park and the quiet residential streets running down toward Chelsworth Park, it is an easy suburb to get caught out in when a key snaps, a fob dies or the car locks you out.
Ostan Locksmiths is fully mobile, so we come to your car wherever it is in Ivanhoe, at home, at work, at the station or in a shopping strip car park. We cut and replace car and motorcycle keys, program transponder chips and smart keys, replace remotes and fobs, cut spare keys and open lockouts, all on site. We are licensed and insured. Call 0410 380 354 or email michael@ostanlock.com.au.
Situations we get called to in Ivanhoe
Real calls, real streets. If one of these sounds like your day, we can fix it at the car.
Locked out at Ivanhoe station
Dash for the Hurstbridge line train and the door locks with your keys on the seat. We come straight to the Ivanhoe station car park and get you back in, no smashed glass needed.
Lost all your keys near the shops
Bags packed, car keys gone from your pocket somewhere between the shops. We cut a fresh key from scratch at your car on Upper Heidelberg Road and program it to start, no spare needed.
Fob dies on a Chelsworth Park walk
Your remote stops responding halfway round Chelsworth Park and the car wont unlock or start. We come to the car park by the river, cut a working key and reprogram the fob on the spot.
Key snaps after a round at Ivanhoe Golf Club
Years of wear and the key snaps off in the ignition after a round at Ivanhoe Golf Club. We extract it in the car park and cut a new key that starts the car.
Keys locked in the boot at Ivanhoe Park
Footy gears loaded, boots shut, and the keys are sitting right there behind the glass at Ivanhoe Park. We open the car on the spot without forcing the boot or marking the paint.
Spare key cut before a flight

Yes. For most cars we can create a brand new key on site, even when every key is lost. Have your ID and proof of ownership ready.
It depends on the key type. A basic cut key costs less than a transponder key, and proximity smart keys sit at the top of the range. Whether a working key remains also matters. Call 0410 380 354 with your make, model and year and we will give you a clear price before we head your way.
