What do locksmith services include?
Locksmith services typically include assistance with accessing your home, vehicle, office, or other property when you’ve lost or misplaced your keys.
A master locksmith may also provide key cutting, lock and key repair, lock and key replacement, and 24-hour service. Each Tasker’s offerings may vary, so be sure to specify what you need when you put up a task post.
Mobile Locksmith
While some locksmiths may have brick-and-mortar shops where you can get your keys cut or repaired, mobile locksmiths go to your location and assist you from wherever you are. So when you request a master locksmith through our platform, chances are you’ll be working with a mobile locksmith. They’ll travel to your home, office, or even the car park you’re in, then help you gain access even without your keys.
Emergency Locksmith
Need a locksmith ASAP? You can easily find affordable 24-hour locksmith services through Airtasker. These locksmiths are typically available even after “regular” hours and know that there’s nothing more panic-inducing than being locked out of your own home late at night. Emergency locksmiths can also help you if your house has been broken into, and you need to replace the locks ASAP.
Some may also specialise in opening safes, recoding electronic keypad locks, and reprogramming transponder car keys.
Auto Locksmith
Auto locksmiths specialise in security and access to vehicles, including cars, vans, and motorcycles. For example, if you’ve locked your car keys inside the vehicle, chipped the master key, or need tech support for a smart key, request an auto locksmith near you. These specialists can travel to your garage, the car park, or wherever you’re located.
Auto locksmiths aren’t the only automobile specialists you can find on Airtasker. You can also book a mobile mechanic who can check your vehicle right in your driveway or garage.
Lock and Key Replacement
Part of securing your home, car, or other property includes changing the locks and keys. It’s a good idea to change these when you’ve moved houses or lost your keys. For example, if your home was recently robbed, you’d want to get this done ASAP.
And if you’re a landlord, you’ll need to change the lock and key every time a tenant moves out. Airtasker helps you find local lock and key replacement specialists for your home, car, and more. They may dismantle the old lock entirely or modify it so that you’ll need a new key to access it - but without tearing down the entire lock.
Lock and Key Repair
Frozen door locks chipped keys, and latches that don’t work all make your home a bit more vulnerable to intruders. Our platform helps you find master locksmiths who can repair locks and keys quickly and conveniently.
You can request lock and key repair experts for your car, doors, and even your windows. And in case it’s not just your door locks that needs fixing, you can also use Airtasker to find a local handyperson to fix your door.

Replace gate deadbolt so it engages the strike plate
$100
Brunswick West VIC, Australia
13th Mar 2026
extend gate deadbolt so it properly engages the strike plate I need a handyman to fix the locking mechanism on my gate. The deadbolt (sliding bolt) from the lock does not extend far enough to properly reach and engage the strike plate/receiver on the frame. Scope of work: Inspect the existing surface-mounted gate deadbolt. Replace the bolt mechanism or install a longer throw deadbolt so the bolt extends far enough to fully engage the strike plate. Ensure the lock aligns correctly with the receiver/keeper and operates smoothly. Adjust or replace the strike plate if needed to ensure a secure lock. The goal is for the deadbolt to extend further across the gap and securely latch into the receiver on the opposite side.
very happy with Perez's service

I have my car, a 2015 mitsubishi ASX, and the key has been acting up. It starts the car normally but distance locking/unlocking is on and off. After I try to re-sync the key it works but as soon as I put it back into the ignition, the fob refuses to work again. I’m guessing I need a new key and the programming needed along. I’m happy to use the same key blade as the one I have right now; it’s an after market anyway. Alternatively, if you could repair the one I already have, I’m all good with that…whatever option is the cheapest. Let me know approximately how much that would cost me…money is a bit tight at the moment.
