Commercial LocksmithRichmond & inner Melbourne
Shopfronts, offices, warehouses and strata — security that survives staff turnover.
What commercial locksmith actually involves
A business lock has a harder life than a home lock: more cycles, more key holders, and a fire-egress requirement that limits what you are legally allowed to fit. We work on shopfronts along the retail strips, converted-warehouse offices, and multi-tenant buildings where the common property has its own rules.
What the job covers
- Shopfront and glass-door locks
- Panic and fire-exit hardware
- Restricted and master key systems
- Roller shutter and warehouse locks
- Strata and common-property keying
- After-hours and staged lock changes
- Security audits for insurers
What it costs
We do not publish prices. Two jobs with the same name can be an hour apart in practice, and a number on a page that does not fit your door helps nobody. Quotes are free, given before we start, and there is no obligation.

Commercial Locksmith — what customers say
Illustrative examples — real reviews replace these at launch.
“Changed the shopfront locks after close so we did not lose a trading hour. Back open the next morning as if nothing happened.”
“We had a fire exit with a deadbolt on it that the previous tenant fitted. He replaced it with compliant hardware and explained why it mattered.”
“Staff member left without returning keys. He was honest that rekeying was the only real answer rather than selling us a whole new system.”

Commercial Locksmith — common questions
Can you change our locks outside trading hours?
Yes, and for most shopfronts that is the sensible way to do it. We schedule the change for after close or before open so you never lose a trading hour to a locksmith on the floor.
A staff member left and did not return their key. What now?
If you are on standard keys, the honest answer is that you do not know how many copies exist, so rekeying the affected cylinders is the only way to be sure. If this keeps happening, a restricted key system is the fix — copies can only be cut by us, only for an authorised signatory.
Are we allowed to fit a deadlock on the fire exit?
No — a fire exit must open from the inside without a key, and fitting a deadbolt to one is both a compliance failure and a genuine danger. There is compliant hardware that secures the door from outside while leaving free egress from inside, and that is what we fit.
