Centurion notes on locksmith services
Buyers moving into Southdowns, Eldoraigne or Heritage Hill should rekey every outside door, since builders, previous owners and staff may all hold copies. Office suites in Highveld Techno Park and around Centurion Lake use master key systems so a manager carries one key. Rental agents in Die Hoewes and Zwartkop book rekeying between tenants. For a lockout inside an estate, give the guardhouse the locksmith's details before he arrives.
Centurion: the houses, the weather and the locksmiths
Estate living shapes almost every lock job in Centurion. Homeowners in Midstream, Copperleaf, Southdowns and Eldoraigne live behind a manned gate, so the front door is often secondary to the patio sliders, the garage interleading door and the keys handed to domestic staff and contractors. Sectional title complexes in Highveld, Die Hoewes and Rooihuiskraal have body corporate rules on gate remotes, intercoms and who may change a lock on common property. Office parks around the Centurion CBD and Highveld Techno Park run card readers and master keyed suites. Locksmiths travel in from Lyttelton, Hennopspark and Pretoria, and the estate guardhouse usually needs their name and vehicle in advance, even for an after-hours lockout.

The requests we see from Centurion usually come from:
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: unit keys for residents and a master for the body corporate and caretaker
- Homeowners: a large house or cottage with a granny flat, one key for the owner
- Offices, shops and practices: office keys for staff and one master for the manager and the cleaners
