Welkom notes on locksmith services

Welkom locksmiths rekey and replace locks for landlords between tenants, often several houses in one trip.

Homeowners call for lockouts, broken keys in gate locks and car keys. Ask whether the locksmith can secure an empty house and how many visits that takes.

Securing doors and gates in Welkom

Welkom was planned around the Free State goldfields, and its wide streets, traffic circles and rows of mine-era houses still define the town. Many of those houses in Riebeeckstad, Flamingo Park, Doorn and Bedelia are now owned by private landlords, so rekeying, lock replacement and burglar gates between tenants are everyday work. Thabong, Odendaalsrus and Virginia need sturdy outside doors and padlocks. Mines and engineering shops still ask for master key systems and heavy padlocks for stores. Some houses stand empty for months, and owners want them secured with strong deadbolts and padlocks. Locksmiths in Welkom cover most of the goldfields towns. Dusty winters clog gate locks, so dry lubricant beats oil.
