Locksmith jobs you can request

Locksmith work can include help with a lockout, replacing a lock or rekeying it. If you manage a business or property, you can also request work on commercial locks. For an urgent locksmith job, explain what has happened and what work you need when you submit the request. Knut sends the job to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service. If there is immediate danger to life or property, such as a fire, gas leak, electrical hazard or flooding, call 000 or the relevant emergency service first.

Give the locksmith a clear brief

Describe what needs doing, where the job is, and when you need the work. Say whether it is a lockout, a lock replacement, rekeying or work on a commercial lock. Include details that may help explain the job, and add photos if useful. If there are several locks or properties involved, outline the scope so tradies can consider the same request when preparing quotes. Knut sends your description to suitable local tradies. You can message the tradie through Knut and follow progress in one place after booking.

Costs and Knut’s booking fee

There is no charge to request quotes. When you book, 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 for the work it covers and ask the tradie about anything unclear before booking.

Choosing and checking a locksmith

Compare the quotes against the job you described, including whether the proposed work addresses the lockout, replacement, rekeying or commercial lock task you need. If a quote leaves part of the job unclear, ask the tradie to explain the scope before you book. Some jobs in this trade need a licence or registration depending on the work and the state. Knut applies the relevant check from the job scope. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to organise maintenance across many properties.
