One key for you, limited keys for everyone else — and no unauthorised copies, ever. Covering Prahran 3181 and the surrounding Inner South & Bayside, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Master Key & Restricted Key Systems for Prahran homes and businesses
A master key system gives each holder access to exactly what they need and gives you a single key that opens everything. A restricted system adds the part most businesses actually need: the key blank is patented, so copies can only be cut by us, only for a person on your authorised signatory list. Together they stop the slow leak of keys that every organisation suffers.
Why Prahran in particular
The single-fronted Victorian and Edwardian terraces here have narrow front-door stiles that will not take a standard tubular deadbolt, and many sit under a heritage overlay — which means the right answer is a mortice lock sized for the stile rather than a bigger hole in a 130-year-old door. Walk-up flat blocks make up a large part of the housing, and their weak point is rarely the flat door — it is the common entry, which is owners-corporation property and often has more keys in circulation than anyone can account for.

What it costs
We do not publish prices, because a jammed deadlock on a heritage door in Prahran and a spring latch that has swung shut are not the same job and should not carry the same number. Quotes are free, given before we start, and there is no obligation.

Illustrative examples — real reviews replace these at launch.
“We had eleven different keys for nine doors and no idea who held what. Now one key for me and a limited key per person.”
“Designed it so we can add the second floor later without recutting everything. Worth the extra thought at the start.”
“The restricted blanks are the part that actually solved it. Nobody can quietly cut a copy at a kiosk any more.”

Master Key & Restricted Key Systems in Prahran — common questions
How quickly can you get to Prahran for master key & restricted key systems?
30 minutes is the target. We are based in Richmond, so Prahran is a straightforward run at most hours. It sits in the middle of our coverage, and the run is a short one at most hours. We give you a realistic arrival window on the phone rather than a number that sounds good.
How is this different from just keying everything alike?
Key alike gives everyone the same access. A master system gives each person a key that opens only their doors, while your master opens all of them. That difference is the whole point once you have more than a couple of staff.
What stops a staff member cutting a copy at the shops?
The restricted blank. It is patented and not sold to general key cutters, so a copy can only be made by us and only for someone on your signatory list. That is the control a standard key cannot give you.
Can we start small and grow it?
Yes, and you should. A system designed with expansion in mind lets you add doors, floors or a second site later without recutting everything. Designing it properly at the start is the difference.
