A reliable local locksmith for rental properties, tenant access, rekeys, lock repairs, make-safe work and master key systems — serving real estate agencies, landlords and body corporates across North Brisbane and Moreton Bay.
Don't have an agency portal yet? We'll set one up for ongoing real estate clients.
The full range of locksmith work that comes up across a typical rental portfolio — submitted through your agency portal, tracked from request to invoice.
Standard between-lease rekeys so previous tenants' keys no longer work. Fast turnaround where available.
For tenant lockouts, we confirm authorisation before attending so access is handled properly, and invoice the right party.
Sticky, jamming, won't turn, broken keys in cylinders. Repaired first, replaced only when needed.
Secure a property after a break-in, attempted entry or damaged hardware. Temporary make-safe followed by full repair.
Security screen door locks repaired or replaced — a common wear point in rentals.
Patio and courtyard sliding doors — repairs, replacements and upgrades. Often the weak point in a rental.
Replacement mailbox locks for individual units and multi-unit complexes. Cut keys supplied per property.
Rekey the property when tenant or agency keys go missing. Replacement key sets cut on the spot.
Forced entry damage repaired and secured — frames, doors, locks. Reports and photos suitable for tenancy and insurance files.
Restricted master keys for multi-unit complexes — one key for the property manager, individual keys per unit, controlled duplication.
Instead of work orders getting buried in email threads, ongoing agency clients can upload work orders and quote requests directly through their own AB Locksmiths client portal. Your team can add tenant details, access notes, PO references and approval thresholds, then track each job from request through to completion.
Each approved agency gets a dedicated portal. Property managers upload work orders and quote requests directly, add the details that matter, and check job status without sending a chase-up email.
Each approved agency has a dedicated view — only your jobs, only your team, only your properties.
Submit a work order or a quote request straight into the portal — no email chains, no missing PO numbers.
Property address, tenant contact, lockbox codes, PO/work order reference, urgency and approval thresholds — all attached to the right job.
See where each job is at without chasing. Status updates include work order submitted, quote requested, tenant contact pending, booked with tenant, awaiting approval, parts required, attending today, completed, invoice sent and unable to access.
Job notes, before/after photos where required, and invoice/work order references are attached to each job for clean record-keeping.
Particularly useful for agencies managing more than a handful of rentals at a time. Less chasing, fewer dropped balls, cleaner records.

Property managers upload the work order or quote request through their agency portal, including the property address, tenant details, access notes, PO/reference and urgency.
We check the job details, confirm anything missing, and coordinate access directly with the tenant or key holder when authorised.
For simple approved work, we complete the job. If it needs approval or extra parts, we update the portal and quote before proceeding.
Job notes, before/after photos where required, and invoice/work order references are added so your team can keep records clean.
A complete work order means we can get moving without back-and-forth. The list on the right is what's most useful in the portal — even a few of these is enough to start.
Once submitted, the same details flow through to status updates, job notes and the final invoice — no duplicate entry.
