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 Smart Locks

$200

Richmond VIC 3121, Australia

5th Jul 2025

Smart locks installation. 1. Front Door - Replace deadbolt with Eufy S3 Max Video Smart Lock (I will supply) - Change the bottom lever so that it's non-lockable. 2. Garage Door (internal) - replace deadbolt with a smart lock or would consider mechanical keypad, but it needs to lock from both sides. I need assistance recommending a product for this. - replace lever as the current one is broken, with as similar as possible. Also need help selecting this. Photos attached. We are home most days, so I'm flexible on when this gets done.

Replace deadlock with smart lock

$80

Richmond VIC, Australia

5th Jul 2025

I bought a Eufy C33 Smart Lever Lock for my house and want to swap over my current deadlock but I don’t have the right tools unfortunately. It needs a hole cut in the door that’s a minimum of 45mm diameter (the current hole is only 35mm) and it needs a 1 inch hole in the side of the door for the latch and another one on the door frame for the strike plate. If you have the tools to cut these holes for me and chisel out the rectangle for the strike plate and latch, please send an offer. I’d like to get this done today since I’ve already removed the old lock and don’t want to put it back on. Instructions are in the photos.

Amazing job!! Terrence was punctual, skilled and knowledgable! I would definitely recommend!!

Carpenter, door installer, locksmith - Latch to fit inside hole again

$135

Toorak VIC 3142, Australia

13th Jun 2025

Hi, I require either a carpenter, door installer, or locksmith to make an alteration to allow a latch to fit inside the strike hole again. The lock itself appears to work in that the key locks and unlocks the handle and latch of the lock, but the gate door won't ever lock. Looking closely, the latch doesn't sit inside the hole anymore and hits above it, due to a misalingment. When it was installed a couple years ago, it was working fine, however the door may have recenty shifted or warped, causing this, although I'm not sure. I am seeking someone to correct this, ideally by first checking the hinges and alingment of the door, etc. If this doesn't work, then perhaps remounting the strike plate higher or trimming off a bit of the metal at the top of the strke hole, or whatever you suggest. Best Regards, Mike

Quick and efficient , many thanks!!

Install a new lock

$170

South Melbourne VIC 3205, Australia

2nd Jun 2025

Hello, My name is Val and Im hoping I can find someone qualified that will install a new lock/handle for me. Specifically, I have purchased the following product: - Orion Smart Fingerprint Entrance Lock (the Grid Connect supported one - DL03HA) Not sure if this is relevant information, but I live in an apartment. Does bodycorp need to know anything? It's important I get the lock changed immediately as I'm doing this as someone stole my keys over the weekend and I'm scared they copied them. The last time you dealt with bodycorp, they took forever to get back to me, and I just won't feel safe until I get my lock changed. Currently my lock is just an old school lock that is locked and unlocked with a key. My door is a normal wooden door, I don't know what other information is needed. Feel free to ask. I'm free tomorrow, Tuesday 3 June. I have to take my car to get serviced at 8am, so I should be free sometime after 9:00am.

Ramsn was perfect. He accommodated me how I needed, was speedy, kind and did the job perfectly. Absolutely recommend.

Locksmith to replace a door key cylinder, and to fix another lock

$60

Thornbury VIC 3071, Australia

1st Jun 2025

I need a locksmith to help with two tasks at my home. 1) To replace the cylinder in a door lock, and to provide a new key for that cylinder. So that it can be locked by a new key (lock is pictured. Ideally we can keep the lock, just replace the cylinder) 2) To help improve how one of my other doors closes and locks at the moment. (From time to time it semi closes but doesn't fully lock. Interested in whether there's anything we can do to solve that problem). I can provide photos of this door and lock if helpful.

Thank you! Good communication and fixed the problems I needed help with

Replace Broken Window Lock (Whitco Style) – Supply Tools & Parts

$105

Richmond VIC, Australia

1st Jun 2025

Hi! I need someone to remove and replace a broken Whitco window winder lock (see photo). The key is missing and the lock is unusable. I’m open to alternatives and would prefer a budget-friendly option, such as the Remsafe Stainless Steel Window Lock (~$34.45 from Bunnings) — as long as it includes a key and secures the window properly. 🔧 What’s needed: • Remove the broken lock • Supply and install a compatible winder lock with key (preferably Remsafe) • Bring all tools and equipment • Ensure the window opens, closes, and locks securely I live walking distance from Bunnings Collingwood so it’s convenient to pick up a lock if needed. I have indoor cats – in case you have allergies 💰Please include the cost of the lock in your quote
