Locksmith jobs you can request
A locksmith job might be getting help with a lockout, replacing a lock or rekeying it so existing keys no longer work. For a business or other commercial premises, you can also request work on commercial locks. Emergency locksmith work is another listed service, but do not assume a tradie is available at a particular time; include when you need the work in your request. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can use Knut to organise maintenance across many properties. If your request covers more than one property, explain what each site needs so tradies can assess the scope.
What to include in your locksmith request
Describe what needs doing, where the property is and when you need the work. Say whether you are locked out, want a lock replaced or rekeyed, or need help with a commercial lock. Include useful details about the door or lock and what you have already tried, if relevant. Photos can help a tradie understand the job, but only share images that are safe to take; do not put yourself at risk to photograph a lockout. For multiple properties, set out the location and requirement for each one. Knut sends your request to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service.
Costs and Knut's booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. If you choose to book through Knut, you pay Knut one booking fee at booking: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie's quoted price for the work. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit; check the quote details before booking so you understand the proposed work. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote.
Choosing and checking a locksmith
Compare the quotes you receive against the work you described. Check that each quote addresses the requested task, such as a lock replacement or rekeying, and ask the tradie to clarify anything you do not understand before booking. Some locksmith jobs need a licence or registration depending on the work and the state. Knut applies the relevant check from the job scope. Once you book through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. For immediate danger to life or property, such as a fire, gas leak, electrical hazard or flooding, call 000 or the relevant emergency service first.
Knut's booking fee
Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
