What to know locally in Benoni
Landlords with flats in Northmead and Benoni Central rekey between tenants, and some set up a master key so a caretaker carries one key. New owners in Rynfield and Crystal Park rekey after moving in. On the eastern plots, a lockout can take a while to reach, so keep a spare key, and ask about travel before an after-hours call.
Benoni: the houses, the weather and the locksmiths
Lakes in the west and smallholdings in the east give Benoni two very different kinds of lock work. Homes around Homestead Lake, Farrarmere and Lakefield have stoeps, sliding doors onto the garden and boathouses or storerooms that need padlocks. Older flats in Northmead and Benoni Central change tenants often, and landlords keep locksmiths busy with rekeying. East of town, plots in Benoni Agricultural Holdings, Putfontein and Bredell have long driveways, farm gates, outbuildings and workshops, each with its own lock. In Daveyton and Etwatwa, homes rely on deadbolts and padlocked gates. Locksmiths are based in Northmead and Benoni South, and plot visits take more planning, especially after hours.
Who asks for key cutting around Benoni, most often first:
- Homeowners: spare front door, security gate and garage keys for every person in the house
- Farms and smallholdings: copies for the farmhouse, stores, pump house padlocks and camp gates
- Landlords and letting agents: sets of keys for each new tenant and one spare for the letting agent
