Outer-suburban geography, inner-city housing
Joondalup was designated one of five sub-regional centres in the 1970 Corridor Plan for Perth and most of the land stayed undeveloped until then. It became the city of the north through the late 1980s and early 1990s: a 1990s civic and retail core on Grand Boulevard, ringed by 1990s and 2000s residential, with apartment towers layered onto the boulevard since.
That gives it housing behaviour you would expect much closer in. With a university and TAFE in the precinct and about 41 per cent of homes rented, plenty of residents live in apartments. For your own unit we do the door, the letterbox and the balcony slider; lobby doors and basement parking are common property and go through strata.
It also has a city centre of offices and shops, and for businesses we do after-hours lockouts, staff-change rekeys and break-in repairs. When you ring, we’ll tell you straight when we can get there.
Since December we’ve been called out to Joondalup at least twice.

Straight answers
Will you come out to Joondalup?
Yes. Call and we’ll tell you honestly when we can be there.
What does a locksmith cost in Joondalup?
The same as anywhere else in Perth. A lockout is from $195 inc GST in business hours, and there’s no charge if we can’t get in. A rekey is $195 for the first lock, with the call-out and 2 keys included, then $55 for each extra lock. After-hours costs more and varies with the time; the price is agreed before we start. Prices checked October 2026. More on our locksmith cost page.
Can a locksmith change the lock on a Grand Boulevard apartment?
The door into your own apartment, yes. The building’s lobby, car park and entry system are strata matters and we do not work on those.
I’ve locked my keys in the car. Can you open it?
Yes. We come to the car and open it without damage, whatever the make. If the key is lost altogether, we can make a new one at the car for Japanese makes, Hyundai, Kia and most US-built cars. More on car key replacement.
Do you do commercial work here?
Yes. Offices and shops: rekeys, lock repairs and break-in repairs. Not access control, alarms, CCTV or safes.
