Quick answer

Beechboro, Western Australia 6063 is in the City of Swan and is about 90 per cent separate houses — the most house-dominated suburb we cover in the north-east — with the largest average household nearby at 2.7 people. There is no station in the suburb, so it runs on cars, and that shows in what we are asked for: spare and lost car keys as often as house locks.

Two dated subdivisions, split by Altone Road

Beechboro is unusually easy to date, which helps. East Beechboro went up between 1979 and the late 1980s on blocks of roughly 600 to 800 square metres — brick-and-tile three-bedroom homes with the odd duplex. West Beechboro followed in the mid-to-late 1980s on the same sized blocks, mostly three-bedroom with a few four-bedroom houses. Altone Road divides the two. Bennett Springs and Orchid Park split off to become their own suburb in 2011, so they are not part of this.

What that means in practice is a very predictable house. Forty-year-old door furniture, a single screen door lock, often no deadbolt at all on the back door, and a big backyard with a side gate and a shed. A Beechboro rekey is almost always the same shape — six to eight locks, the same brands, the same era — which is why we can usually tell you the price over the phone with a couple of questions.

The car side is the other half. The biggest households nearby, two cars per home and no station means everything is driven, including by teenagers in hand-me-down Japanese and Korean cars. Spare keys before they are lost, and replacements after, are a real part of what we do here.

Amco Locksmiths covers Beechboro, Western Australia 6063. One licensed locksmith, mobile, no call centre and no shopfront to drive to. Call 08 9444 2089, or send a photo of the lock and we will tell you what it needs before we come out.

Most asked for

What we get called to in Beechboro

A spare key for the family car

Cheaper before it is lost than after. We cut and program at the car, in the driveway.

A deadbolt on the back door

A lot of houses of this age never got one. It is a small job that makes a real difference.

The house on one key

Front, back, laundry, screen, side gate and shed. The same shape on almost every Beechboro job.

“Absolutely cracking service from Magnus. My wife dropped her keys last night and went to start it today and and it failed. We called 2 other places first and also had road side assistance out to inspect. Not one of them advised us to look where she had dropped it for the micro chip. They simply wanted dollars in their pockets without trying to solve the problem. After a prompt call back from Magnus and an exploded view image of keys components and 5 minutes of rummaging around the garden the chip was found, re-installed and works. 100% recommend these guys and will be getting a spare key from them in the near future. Thanks so much Magnus!!!”

Common questions

Straight answers

Yes. We come to the car and cut and program the key there — for Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Suzuki, Hyundai, Kia, Ford and Holden among others. Most take about half an hour once we are at the car.

We can usually make a new one at the car, without a tow. Bring photo ID and proof the car is yours — we check that on every car job, no exceptions.

Most houses here are the same shape — six to eight locks on one generation of hardware. We confirm the count and the price before starting.

No. The nearest are Ballajura and Whiteman Park. It does not affect us since we come to you.

That became a separate suburb in 2011, but yes, we cover it. Just tell us the address when you call.
