Mobile Locksmith in Lyndhurst

Lyndhurst Road or Lyndhurst Street?

Both exist, and both are inside the suburb, which is a recipe for a driver going to the wrong end. When you book, please say which one, and give us the house number plus a cross street. Other useful reference roads are Johannesburg Road, which crosses the suburb, and 2nd Avenue. Morkel Road, Chilton Avenue and Wilmington Close are some of the quieter residential roads.

Big stands, more doors

Listings in Lyndhurst include stands of around 1,500 to 2,700 m². On a property that size there's usually more than one building to lock up: the main house, perhaps a cottage or flatlet, a garage and outbuildings, and a long driveway to a front gate. When something goes wrong, tell us which of these it is, and whether we'll need someone to open the driveway gate for us.

Large properties also collect keys over the years. If you've bought a house here and don't know who still holds a key, a lock or cylinder replacement is how you close that gap. Our guide on key control is useful if you let out a cottage on the property.

Apartment and townhouse complexes

On one property portal, apartments in Lyndhurst currently outnumber houses for sale, and there are townhouses too. Woodlands Complex on Lyndhurst Street is one example. In a complex, please:

• give us the complex name and your unit number;
• tell the guard or the managing agent that a locksmith is on the way;
• check the body corporate rules before swapping your unit's lock.

For the full checklist, see locked out of a flat or complex unit.

Sunningdale Ridge

Sunningdale Ridge is the small area on the eastern side, around Greenlands Crescent, Nicolaine Road, Odell Road and Northfield Avenue. In 2011 it had 1,012 residents in 369 households, compared with Lyndhurst's 3,813 residents in 1,422 households. We cover it in exactly the same way: tell us the street and nearest corner.

Price and what we need from you

R250 call-out fee. The price of the work itself is agreed on site: The technician assesses the job on site and gives you the price before any work starts. Nothing is done until you agree. Payment by EFT, cash or card. To open a locked home, we'll need proof that you live there, and the technician will always try non-destructive entry before anything else.
