How it works
Four steps.
Clear from the first call.
- 1
You call
A person answers, not a queue. We take the address, the lock and how urgent it is.
- 2
We're on the way
A licensed technician is dispatched with the stock and tools for your job, and a real arrival window — not a guess.
- 3
We do the work
The technician looks at the actual lock, talks you through what it needs, and gets on with it — opened, repaired or replaced.
- 4
You get the quote
The price is quoted once the job is finished, not at the callout — so it reflects the work actually done. Keys, invoice and warranty on the spot.

Straight answers
The questions
we get every day.
Anything not covered here, ring us. We'd rather talk it through than have you guess.
Call 1300 375 060How fast can you actually get here?
Across metro Melbourne our average arrival is around 25 minutes. When you call we give you a real arrival window based on the nearest available van — not a guess.
When do I find out what it costs?
The job is quoted once it's finished, so the price reflects the work actually carried out — not a number guessed over the phone. The technician talks you through what the lock needs before starting.
Will you damage my door or lock?
Non-destructive entry comes first, always. Drilling or replacing a lock is a last resort, and we'll explain why before we do it.
Can you cut and program car keys?
Yes. We cut and program transponder keys and remotes for most makes and models on site — no need to tow the car to a dealer.
Do you work weekends and public holidays?
Yes. Calls are answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, public holidays included.
Are you licensed and insured?
Every RapidLockHelp technician is licensed, insured and uniformed, and carries identification you can ask to see on arrival.
Do I need to replace the whole lock if I've lost my keys?
Usually not. Rekeying re-pins the existing lock so the old keys stop working — it's quicker and cheaper than a full replacement.
What types of locks do you work on?
Deadlocks, euro cylinders, mortice locks, window locks, padlocks, safes, car locks and ignitions, master key systems and smart locks.
Which areas do you cover?
All of metro Melbourne, from the CBD to the outer suburbs. Use the suburb checker above, or just call — we'll tell you honestly how fast we can get there.
Not an emergency?
Tell us the job.
We'll get straight back to you.
For upgrades, master key systems and scheduled work. We'll confirm what's involved and book a time; as always, the job is quoted once it's done.
