Midrand notes on locksmith services

Managing agents with blocks in Waterfall and Noordwyk call a locksmith between tenants to rekey the cylinder rather than replace the lock, which is quicker and cheaper. Office parks in Midridge Park and along New Road set up master key systems so cleaners carry one key for the floor. Commuters on the N1 often need an auto locksmith for a lost transponder key, and many can cut and program on site in an office car park.

Locks and keys in Midrand

Halfway between the two metros on the N1, Midrand has grown fast, and its doors show it. Rental apartment blocks in Carlswald, Noordwyk and Waterfall turn over tenants often, so agents keep locksmiths busy with rekeying and tag readers at the lobby. Office parks around Grand Central and along New Road run card access and master keyed suites, while distribution centres in Midridge Park and along Allandale Road fit roller door locks and padlock bolts. Out in Kyalami, Blue Hills and Glen Austin, smallholdings have long driveways, farm gates and outbuildings that each want a padlock or a gate lock. Locksmiths come from Halfway House and from both Johannesburg and Pretoria, and after-hours call-outs are routine.
