Polokwane has the widest choice of locksmiths, and Mokopane, Tzaneen, Louis Trichardt and Thohoyandou each have a few.

A lost car key in Lephalale or Musina can take time, so ask about travel cost and whether the key needs dealer programming.
Securing doors and gates in Limpopo
Heat is the thing to plan for with locks in Limpopo. Keypad and smart lock batteries run down faster on a sun-baked door, and plated padlocks on lodge storerooms and farm gates near Hoedspruit or in the Waterberg fade and seize. Polokwane has the most locksmiths and hardware stores, with suburbs like Bendor and Fauna Park full of security gates and complexes, while Tzaneen, Mokopane and Thohoyandou have smaller trades who also cover the villages around them. Game lodges want master keyed chalets and safes in the rooms. Distances along the N1 and R71 are long, so ask whether the locksmith charges travel by the kilometre, and keep a spare key with a neighbour you trust.
