Got locked out of your home in the middle of the night? Or need to replace your lock early in the morning? Professional mobile locksmiths are trained to respond quickly and efficiently. On Airtasker, you can find lock installation services that can meet you where you’re at round-the-clock. Simply post your task and indicate as many details as possible, including the time and how soon you need the job done. A Tasker will get to you as quickly as possible.

Lock replacement almost always involves lock installation. However, lock installation can also mean adding a lock to something to a fixture, furniture piece, or even appliance that did not have a lock before. For example, your mobile locksmith can also add a lock onto a cabinet, wardrobe, or even a refrigerator. That said, installing locks to furniture or appliances can keep your belongings extra secure.

Lock fitting and lock installation can take a few minutes to a few hours. This depends on whether you need to replace a lock altogether or if you’re changing the type of lock altogether. For example, if you’re installing a keyless entry system, then it might take a bit longer to remove the older lock mechanisms and introduce brand new technology. Rest assured that your Tasker will work as efficiently as possible.

Yes, a locksmith can provide you with new keys. What’s great about Airtasker is that you can find a locksmith who suits your needs and can fashion a new key for you when you install a new lock. However, know that you can also buy a new lock and key in a hardware store and ask your locksmith to install it.

What do lock installation services include?

If you’ve just moved into a new home, consider replacing its old locks and installing new ones. Whether it’s a traditional deadbolt lock or a keyless entry system, you can find a Tasker who can fit and install the best lock for your home. Below is the possible range of services that you can look forward to: 

Lock fitting

A professional locksmith can help properly fit a lock to your door or window. Remember that there are different types of locks that work best with certain kinds of doors and windows. For example, a UPVC door lock functions best with a patio door or screen door. 

Consult with your Tasker with what lock options you can choose from. Using their tools, they can fit the lock perfectly into your barrier or aperture. 

Door lock installation

Most mobile locksmiths are trained in residential lock installation and help properly install locks to your front door, patio door, and bedroom doors. If you own an office or a retail space, then your mobile locksmith can also repair, replace, and install new locks for your building or store. 

Keep in mind that replacing your locks can ensure the security of your home and prevent break-ins. 

Car lock installation

Want an upgrade on your car’s security system? Hiring a Tasker can help ease the stress of fitting and installing a brand new lock on your vehicle. Depending on what you need, your Tasker can help replace or fit a lock on your car door or trunk or even install a central locking system. 

For parents, you can also babyproof your vehicle and have your Tasker install childproof locks.

Electronic lock installation

Even the oldest or simplest homes can boast top-of-the-line security systems. With Airtasker, you can find a mobile locksmith who can install electronic locks such as keypad locks, Bluetooth locks, magnetic door locks, and more. 

Your Tasker can also smoothly install keyless entry systems, so you can move in and out of your property with ease (and without fumbling with your key chains every single time!).

High-security lock installation

High-security lock systems protect against robberies or any other method of trespassing and attack. Your mobile locksmith can help install a heavy-duty lock that can withstand picking and drilling. 

If you’re looking to upgrade the security of your property with video surveillance and alarms, consider hiring a security system installer near you.

Install Lockable Sliding Doors for Secure Storage

$300

Glebe, New South Wales

15th Jul 2026

Looking for an experienced tradesperson to supply and install sliding door(s) to enclose an open brick alcove and turn it into secure (please see the attached image), lockable storage at my property. The space currently has no door or frame — it's an open brick nook under a concrete slab, so the track will need to be fixed to the underside of the slab with a bottom guide track set into the concrete floor. Open to suggestions on the best way to approach this — if there's a better solution than sliding doors for securing this space, I'm happy to hear it. Scope of work: Supply and install sliding door(s), or an alternative solution if you have a better suggestion, with surface-mounted overhead track (fixed to underside of concrete slab) and floor guide. Door(s) must include a secure locking mechanism (padlock hasp, key lock, or similar) suitable for outdoor storage security. Fit handles and hardware and any required trims or stops. Anchor track securely into brick/concrete as needed. Details: Location — outdoor brick alcove/storage nook under a covered concrete slab (carport area). Exact measurements can be confirmed on site visit. No existing door frame, open brick opening. Supply plus install — happy for tradesperson to recommend suitable secure, weather-resistant door and locking options, and open to ideas on the best overall approach. Requirements: Own tools and transport. Experience installing sliding doors or similar secure storage solutions, ideally with outdoor or semi-outdoor installs. Able to quote based on photos or a site visit, and happy to discuss options before committing to an approach.
