Areas We Serve in the Australian Capital Territory

We cover all of Canberra and the wider ACT, plus the suburbs just over the border. From Gungahlin and Belconnen in the north to Woden, Weston Creek and Tuggeranong in the south. If you’re in the territory, we can usually get someone to you today.

Can’t find your suburb? Call us. If you’re within range, we’ll get someone out, and we usually are.

Residential, Auto & Commercial Locksmiths

Canberra keeps a locksmith busy in ways the coastal cities don’t. Frosty winter mornings stiffen barrels and make brittle keys snap clean off in the lock, the same turn that works fine in March can shear in two come July. Add a housing mix that runs from established suburban homes to the apartment blocks going up around Civic and Braddon, and you’ve got a lot of different locks, doors and entry systems across one territory. Whatever’s on your door, our technicians have almost certainly seen it.

Solus Locksmith works right across the ACT, from Gungahlin and Belconnen to Woden and Tuggeranong, and out to the suburbs along the Lake Burley Griffin foreshore. Our locksmiths are local, licensed and on the road, not on hold, so whether you’re locked out near the office in Civic or back home after a night out in Braddon, help is usually minutes away, not hours.

Repairs and rekeys

Worn locks, broken keys.

A lock that fights you every morning or a key that’s snapped off in the barrel doesn’t fix itself. We free seized locks, extract broken keys, and rekey or replace worn hardware before it leaves you stranded, non-destructively wherever we can, so the lock you had this morning is the lock you keep tonight.

Local and same-day

A locksmith across the ACT today.

From Civic to Tuggeranong, our licensed locksmiths are local and already on the road. We prioritise lockouts, and in most cases you’re back inside within the hour inside a real arrival window, so you’re not stuck home waiting all day.

Backed in writing

Warrantied, every job.

Every repair and installation is backed by a 12-month workmanship warranty. If anything we’ve touched fails inside that window, we come back and put it right. No call-out fee, no debate.

Fast when it mattered most

I snapped my key in the front door late one evening and SolusLock had a licensed locksmith at my place within the hour. The locksmith we've been paired with knows our property now — it makes every call-out so much faster.

“Being paired with one locksmith has been the best part. He knows every lock on our building inside out, flags weak points before they become a risk, and the workmanship is consistently spot on.”

Michael R.
★★★★★

Honest and reliable

Called them out to rekey a door and they spotted that our back lock could be slipped in seconds. Fixed it on the spot and didn't try to upsell us on anything. Genuinely trustworthy people — hard to find these days.

Locked out, sorted in no time

Shut myself out on the coldest night of the year and they had someone here within hours. Friendly, tidy, and no damage to the door at all. They even upgraded our deadbolt while they were there. Couldn't recommend them more highly.

Common questions.

We offer same-day service across all six capital cities and their surrounding regions. For lockouts we treat every call as a priority — in most cases a locksmith will be with you within the hour. You’ll receive an SMS with your arrival window and your locksmith’s name within minutes of booking.

All pricing is fixed and agreed in writing before any work begins. Your locksmith assesses the job on site and gives you one number — that’s the figure on the invoice, no extras, no after-hours loading, no surprises. You can say yes or no with full information before a single tool comes out.

Yes. Every Solus Locksmith technician holds a current state-issued locksmith licence and carries full public liability insurance. We background-check everyone before they join the team. Licence numbers are available on request, and your locksmith will always carry their card on arrival.

Our locksmiths are trained to open jobs non-destructively first. The vast majority of lockouts are resolved cleanly, meaning the lock you had this morning is the lock you keep tonight. Drilling is only ever a last resort, and we’ll tell you upfront if it’s necessary before we do anything.

We cover the full range of residential, automotive, and commercial locksmith work: emergency lockouts, rekeying, lock repairs and replacements, deadbolt and high-security lock upgrades, smart lock and keypad installation, car key cutting and programming, master-key systems, and post-break-in security assessments.

Yes. We cut and program replacement car keys and remotes on site for most makes and models — typically for significantly less than a dealership would charge. If you’re not sure whether we cover your vehicle, call us and we’ll confirm before you book.

The large majority of jobs are completed in a single visit. Our locksmiths carry the most common lock hardware and key blanks on every van. In the rare case a specific part needs to be sourced, we’ll give you a confirmed return date and there’s no additional call-out fee for the follow-up.

Every installation and repair is backed by a written workmanship warranty. If anything we’ve worked on fails within the warranty period, we return and put it right at no charge — no call-out fee, no debate. It’s included as standard on every job.

Save us in your phone before you need us.

The best time to find a locksmith you trust is the day before you’re locked out. Licensed, fixed-price, same-day across Canberra and the ACT and you’ll always know who’s coming.
