Car locksmiths program transponder keys for the bakkies and minibuses that work the shafts. Always ask for a PSIRA number before work starts.
Securing doors and gates in Rustenburg
Platinum mining drives much of the demand in Rustenburg. Mine villages, contractor camps and rental flats around Boitekong, Tlhabane and Waterfall turn over tenants often, which means plenty of rekeying and key cutting, while mines and plant suppliers ask for padlock and master key systems that track who carries which key. Families in Safari Gardens, Cashan and Protea Park ask for better outside locks and security gates, and new estates at the foot of the Magaliesberg run access control at the gate. Locksmiths are based in town and usually reach the suburbs within hours; Marikana, Phokeng and Mooinooi need a drive and a travel charge. Hot, dusty winters clog gate locks, so dry lubricant beats oil.
