We provide safe installation, repair, and maintenance for residential and commercial clients. Our experts recommend fire-resistant and high-security safes to protect valuables and documents. Services include combination changes, key replacements, and secure relocation of safes.

Tailored security solutions for businesses include master key systems, restricted keys, and anti-bump locks. We install access control systems and conduct security audits to prevent breaches. Our services protect premises, equipment, and sensitive information.

We offer key cutting, rekeying, and restricted key systems to enhance security. Lost or stolen keys are replaced promptly, and keyed-alike systems allow single-key access for multiple locks. Our services reduce unauthorised duplication risks.

I had Steve of AV locksmiths worked for the jobs for my house. He was very professional, friendly and efficient. Steve responded quickly after the initial enquiries for my troubles. The next day he was working on my house. I would recommend AV Locksmiths for any locksmith jobs you need. By the way I already used AV Locksmiths services twice and I was happy with the outcome. Kudos AV Locksmith!!

Very impressed with Steve's service today. Cut keys for every lock required and replaced the locking mechanism on one of my sliding doors. Steve was very friendly and was easy to talk to. He finished all jobs required, invoiced on the spot and was about to leave when i remembered another small job needing attending to where a door needing to be forcefully closed for it to latch correctly. Steve did not hesitate in resolving that issue before he left. Highly recommend and works at affordable rates.

Walked him around the property with a list of jobs, rekeying house, shed, and installing extra latches to gates, padlocks etc. He had a plan straight away, knew exactly what do to. Finished the entire job in less than a day- Which included separate keys for different areas of the property, and master keys that work for everything. Have called him in since to do extra jobs. And I will be calling him in the future when I need more work done.
10/10 will highly recommend.
