Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need permission from my body corporate before doing work?
For most individual unit lockouts and repairs, no — that's your call as the resident. For anything affecting communal access (gates, shared entry systems), we'll flag if body corporate sign-off is needed.
Can you get past communal security gates and access systems?
In most cases yes, provided you can grant us access or arrange for building security to let us through — let us know your building's system when you call.
Do you charge extra for complex or estate call-outs?
No separate fee for navigating building access — our quote covers getting the job done, including any reasonable extra time that takes.
What if my complex has a specific approved-contractor list?
Let us know if that applies to your building and we'll provide whatever documentation is typically required — PSIRA registration, insurance, ID.
Can you install a lock that matches my complex's standard hardware?
Yes, where possible we'll match existing hardware standards used across the building, so replacements stay consistent with your neighbours' units.
Do you work with property managers directly, or only unit owners?
Both — we take instructions from property managers for common-area work and from individual owners or tenants for their own units.
