Why do I need to change locks for my Box Hill property?
If the locks on your Box Hill property are broken or damaged, it’s important to replace them to maintain your security. Installing new locks not only prevents old keys from being used but also gives you the chance to upgrade your security for improved protection.
When changing several locks, you can opt for them to be keyed alike, keyed differently, or configured with a restricted master key system for greater control. This flexibility helps you design a security setup that suits your specific requirements—whether it’s for a home, business, or industrial site.
Enhancing your security with high-security locks or restricted key systems can make your Box Hill property more resistant to unauthorized access. Temple Locksmiths is here to help you reinforce your property’s security and give you peace of mind.

How We Can Help You Keep Your Box Hill Property Safe
After an initial chat to understand your needs, we often ask customers to send photos of their doors and existing locks via text or email. This helps us assess your current setup and offer accurate recommendations based on what’s already installed.
At Temple Locksmiths and Security, these images allow us to evaluate the type and condition of your locks ahead of time, so we can provide clear pricing and options over the phone.
Once we’ve had a chance to look over the doors, windows, and locks at your Box Hill property, we’ll suggest the most appropriate lock solutions tailored to your requirements.
What’s Involved In Changing A Lock?
When replacing your existing locks, we begin by checking a few key details:
The condition of the doors and frames to ensure there’s enough space and suitable material for the new locks.
The placement of the current lock to confirm if it’s appropriate and to assess what’s needed for the replacement.
Once our fully qualified and experienced technician has inspected the locks, they’ll proceed with the replacement process.
The original lock is completely removed from the door.
We’ll make any necessary adjustments to the door or frame to ensure the new lock fits properly. After installation, the new lock is thoroughly tested to confirm it’s working correctly, and the new keys are handed over.
We also offer a convenient ‘Keyed Alike’ service, allowing multiple locks to be reconfigured to work with just one key.
For added protection, Temple Locksmiths and Security can upgrade your locks to a Restricted Key System. Our premium Secure 6 system, proudly made in Australia, enhances your door security, introduces key access control, and allows us to master key your property for advanced access management.
We’re here to help you with all of your Lock Changing needs in Box Hill, so don’t hesitate.

Over the past few years there has been a rise in the number of dodgy locksmiths. These people promise fast and cheap locksmith services, but in reality are unqualified to do the job. They end up damaging your property, causing you unnecessary stress and costing you more money in the long term.
Yes, this is no problem for a skilled locksmith. Although you would usually have keys cut from another key, if you have lost your keys or your key is severely worn – it is possible to have a key made from a lock.
This can be achieved by either disassembling the lock or making an impression of the key hole.
No. A Locksmith will be able to rekey the locks to your house and if required, cut copies of the new keys.
After a general discussion about the customers’ requirements a locksmith will often request the customer take some photos of their locks and text or email them so they can then ascertain what locks are in the doors prior to visiting the premises. If locks aren’t broken then they won’t need to be replaced.
Avoid touching the key or lock as this might cause the key to push itself further into the lock.
It’s best to call a locksmith immediately and let them know what has happened – they’ll be able to quickly come out, remove the broken key and cut a new key for you on the spot.
Absolutely, the term locksmiths use for having one key that operates all the locks in your home or workplace is ‘keyed alike’.
The practicality of having one key to open your home or workplace over a large bunch of keys can’t be overstated.
When we key alike your home or workplace, we first check to see if your locks are in good condition and functioning correctly, we’ll then disassemble the keyed cylinders and replace the small internal parts then service and lubricate the entire mechanism.
When we perform a ‘rekey’ of your locks we’ll re-code all of the locks to new keys so everything is keyed alike.
We can even take a customers’ existing sample key which operates one lock and key that alike to the other locks in the premises.
Most people won’t be able to tell if a standard key has been copied as there are no restrictions on a locksmith or hardware shop making a copy of these keys.
A special product that locksmiths offer is a ‘Restricted Key’, this is a key that can only be issued and copied by the locksmith who first sets this product up for their customer. Only an authorised person can request a Restricted Key to be copied which offers a higher level of security and peace of mind to the customer that extra unknown copies are not in circulation.
Each key is individually numbered and issued by the owner of the system. You can also ask your locksmith about a Restricted Master Key System.
A Master Key System is mechanical access control system. Your office, residential or commercial property can be configured so a Grand Master Key can access all the doors and locks on site. Sub keys can be assigned so only specific doors and locks can be opened by designated key holders. This ensures that access granted is given only to specific individuals and can ensure higher security to your premises.
