Mobile Locksmith in Highveld

Highveld or Highveld Techno Park?

The two share a name and a border, but they're different places. Highveld Techno Park is the office node, with streets named after trees, such as Bauhinia, Grevillea and Combretum. If you're calling about an office there, use locksmith in Highveld Techno Park. The residential suburb is the one whose streets are named after airports: Heathrow, Gatwick, Changi, O'Hare, Schipol, Stansted, Charles de Gaulle and many more. If your address is on one of those, you're on the right page.

A suburb of complexes

In 2011 the census counted 8,240 people in 3,205 households on 2.39 km², roughly 3,450 people per square kilometre and far more than any of its neighbours. Today's listings show why: two-bedroom flats and townhouses in complexes such as Highveld Estates on Melbroek Street and Montebelli Estate on Logan Avenue, sold as "lock-up-and-go" units, with a smaller number of freehold houses. When you call from a complex, three details get the technician to your door quickly:

1. the complex name and its street entrance;
2. your unit or block number;
3. whether someone will open the complex gate, or whether the guard needs your go-ahead first.

Your door, the body corporate's gate

In most sectional-title schemes the split goes like this:

Your scheme's rules decide in the end, so check before booking work on anything shared. For your own door, you can simply call us. If you rent, tell your landlord or agent, and have your lease ready because we ask for proof that you live there.

Houses in the cul-de-sacs

The freehold homes, often three- or four-bedroom houses on stands of around 700 to 1,000 m², tend to sit in quiet cul-de-sacs. They have their own driveway gates, garages and burglar bars, so a stuck gate motor or a garage door that won't lift is your call to make. We repair both, motors included.

Locked out late

If it happens after dark, whether it's keys left inside the flat, a security gate lock that won't turn or a key snapped off in the cylinder, we still come out. Have a look at our late-night lockout checklist, and if a key is stuck, don't keep twisting it. Our guide to a key stuck in the lock explains why.

Price

You pay R250 for the call-out. The technician assesses the job on site and gives you the price before any work starts. Nothing is done until you agree. We accept EFT, cash or card, and we'll always try to open the door without damaging it first.
