Mobile Locksmith in Highveld Techno Park

Highveld, Highveld Techno Park or Eco Park?

Three similar names cover this corner of Centurion, and listings mix them up:

• Highveld is the residential suburb to the south-east. Some letting agents also file Techno Park buildings under "Highveld", so a lease can say either.
• Highveld Techno Park (sometimes written "Technopark") is the office grid this page is about: Oxford, Cambridge, Berkley and Princeton office parks, and the buildings on Einstein Street, Pieter Street and Oak Avenue.
• Eco Park is the office precinct beside the Eco-Park Estate homes, with Eco Origin, Eco Fusion, Eco Court, Eco Point and Eco Glades.

Street names vary too. The map has Edington Crescent where listings write Eddington, and there's a Bauhinia Street as well as a Bauhinia Road. Witch-Hazel Avenue appears with and without the hyphen. The quickest way to get us to the right door is to give the park name, the building number and the street.

Getting the technician past park security

Most of these parks are fenced and guarded. Letting agents describe Oxford and Cambridge office parks as having round-the-clock security and controlled access, and Eco Origin as access-controlled. Before we arrive:

1. tell the guardhouse that a locksmith is coming to your company, and give them the building number;
2. if the park has more than one boom, say which one we should use;
3. have someone from your office meet us at the building.

Who comes in is the park's decision, so the call to the gate has to come from you.

What goes wrong in a corporate office

Office calls in the Techno Park and Eco Park are rarely dramatic, but they stop work:

• the suite door or a meeting-room door won't unlock, or the key turns without moving the bolt;
• a key snaps off in the lock of a store room, a server or comms room, or a records room. Our article on a key stuck in a lock explains what not to try;
• desk pedestals, filing cabinets and key cabinets whose only key has gone home with someone or got lost;
• an office safe that won't open, or one that needs a new code;
• a sliding gate at a smaller park whose motor or lock has given up, or a roller shutter on a store room or loading area. Our article on gate motor and gate lock faults lists safe checks.

We handle all of this as everyday commercial locksmith work, and roller shutters and gates are fully in scope: the locks, mechanisms, springs, motors and gate motors.

Staff changes and who still holds keys

Office parks like these house professional, engineering and technology firms, and staff move on. When someone leaves without handing back their keys, or a contractor's access card isn't the only thing they kept, change the cylinders on the suite doors and on any room that holds equipment or records. Then reset the safe's code. Our article on changing a safe combination covers what's involved. The new cylinders come with their own keys. We don't cut or copy keys, so decide how many sets your team needs before the work starts. For a wider look, see lock security for offices in a business park.

Cost and paperwork

R250 call-out fee. The technician assesses the job on site and gives you the price before any work starts. Nothing is done until you agree. You can pay by EFT, cash or card. Before opening a suite, a cabinet or a safe, the technician asks for proof that you're entitled to it, such as a letter from the company or ID that matches the lease. We always try non-destructive entry first.
