Common locksmith jobs
Knut can help you request quotes for a lockout, replacing a lock, rekeying or work on commercial locks. If you need an emergency locksmith, describe what has happened and what help you are seeking. The right job details depend on the situation: for example, say whether you are locked out or want a lock changed. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to organise maintenance across many properties. If there is immediate danger to life or property, such as a fire, flooding or an electrical hazard, call 000 or the relevant emergency service first.
How to brief your locksmith job
Describe what needs doing, where the job is, and when you need the work done. For a lockout, explain that you cannot access the property; for replacement or rekeying, say which locks are involved and what outcome you want. If the job is for commercial locks, include that in your request so suitable tradies can assess it. Add photos if they would help explain the issue. Knut sends your description to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service. You can message the tradie and follow progress in one place after booking.
Costs and Knut's booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. When you book through Knut, you pay Knut one booking fee: 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. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Check the quote and booking fee when you are ready to book so you understand the two separate payments.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Compare the quotes Knut receives against the work you described, and check that each one addresses the job you need done. If something is unclear, message the tradie before booking to discuss the scope. 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 property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams, include which property the request concerns so the job can be assessed in context.
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.
