Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a locksmith cost in NZ?

Standard locksmith jobs in NZ cost $80–$200. Emergency lockout call-outs typically have a higher fee of $150–$300+ depending on time of day and location.

How quickly can a locksmith get to me?

Most mobile locksmiths can respond within 30–90 minutes in urban areas. Response times may be longer in rural regions.

What should I do if I'm locked out of my house?

Call a local QuickTrade locksmith — do not attempt to force entry as this can damage doors and frames. Have proof of residence ready (such as ID showing your address) when the locksmith arrives.

Can a locksmith rekey my locks after moving into a new home?

Yes, rekeying is a cost-effective option that changes the lock mechanism so old keys no longer work. It's cheaper than full lock replacement and is recommended when moving into a new property.
