Krugersdorp notes on locksmith services
Lodges and wedding venues around the Cradle of Humankind and Muldersdrift set up master key systems so managers carry one key while each chalet has its own. Landlords in Kagiso and Munsieville rekey rooms when tenants change. A lockout on a remote plot can take a while to reach, so keep a spare key with a neighbour, and ask about travel before booking.
Securing doors and gates in Krugersdorp
Mogale City reaches far past the Krugersdorp town centre, out to Muldersdrift, Tarlton, the Cradle of Humankind and Magaliesburg, and locksmiths here spend a lot of time on the road. In town, older houses in Monument, Krugersdorp North and Noordheuwel still have lever locks, steel security gates and garages with manual tip up doors. Out on the plots, guest lodges and wedding venues need master keyed rooms, padlocks on storerooms and gate locks on long driveways. Kagiso and Munsieville homes add deadbolts and padlocked gates. Locksmiths and hardware are based in town and in Chamdor, and a far plot call-out costs more, so ask about travel before booking an after-hours visit.
The requests we see from Krugersdorp usually come from:
- Homeowners: rekeying every outside door after moving in so old keys stop working
