Locksmith in Belmont
A high-turnover rental suburb with a highway full of motels running through it.
Belmont, Western Australia 6104 is about 75 per cent separate houses with heavy villa and duplex infill, and roughly 45 per cent rented — one of the highest rental shares in the City of Belmont. Its west is commercial and industrial, and the Great Eastern Highway corridor through it carries motels, car yards and mixed commercial, which produces work no residential suburb generates.

1950s houses, a highway full of beds
Belmont is 1950s and 60s brick and tile with substantial later villa and duplex infill — nearly one home in five is now attached. The west of the suburb is industrial and commercial; the east and north are residential.
The residential work follows from the rental share. Nearly half these homes are rented, so tenancy-change rekeys are the steady job, and property managers are the repeat customer rather than the resident. On the houses themselves the usual pattern applies: a front door on one key profile and an aluminium security screen added later on another, which is why so many Belmont houses need two keys and why we get asked to fix that.
Then there is the highway. Accommodation along Great Eastern Highway means guests losing keys, rooms that need a cylinder changed, and callouts at hours that suit travellers rather than tradespeople. One limit worth stating: we do lockouts, key cutting and cylinder replacement, but not master-keyed suite systems. Being next to the airport also brings the other Belmont job — people who have just landed and cannot find their car key.

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!!!”

Yes — lockouts, key cutting and cylinder replacement. What we do not do is a master-keyed suite system, and we will point you to someone who does if that is what you need.
I have locked my keys in the car at my hotel. Can you come out?
Yes, at any hour. We open all makes without damage. Bring photo ID and proof the car is yours.
How much to rekey a rental in Belmont?
It depends on the number of locks — a typical house has six to eight, a villa fewer. We confirm the count and agree the price before starting.

No, it is in Cloverdale. Perth Airport is its own locality too, not part of Belmont.
Does Belmont have a train station?
No. The nearest on the Airport Line is Redcliffe. It makes no difference to us — we come to you.
