Which automotive locksmith services are available in Surrey Hills?
Surrey Hills is a quiet, leafy pocket of Boroondara, full of federation and Edwardian homes, established gardens and tree lined streets that lead down to the shops on Union Road. Plenty of locals catch the train from Surrey Hills station into the city, and on weekends the strip fills up with people grabbing coffee or picking up groceries. It is the kind of suburb where a car problem throws your whole day off, whether you are trying to get the kids to school or make the next train.
We are a fully mobile car and motorcycle locksmith, so instead of asking you to find a tow truck we drive straight to wherever you and your vehicle are stuck, your driveway, the station car park or a side street off Canterbury Road. Licensed and insured, we cut and program keys, sort out dead remotes and get you back into a locked car, all done at the vehicle.
Situations we get called to in Surrey Hills
Real calls, real streets. If one of these sounds like your day, we can fix it at the car.
Locked out on Union Road
You've popped into a cafe on Union Road and the door's locked with the keys inside. We come to you and get the car open at the kerb, no towing needed.
All keys lost near the station
Finished your shift and can't find your car keys anywhere around Surrey Hills station car park. We cut and program a new set on site, no spare required.

Keys locked in the boot

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.
Usually, yes. A dealership generally needs the car towed in and can take days to order and code a key. We come to your vehicle, cut and program the key on site in a single visit, and you skip the tow entirely.
