Brays Concord Locksmith is based at 42 Brays Rd, right here in Concord. For lockouts, lock changes, deadlocks, security doors and window locks anywhere in the suburb, you are calling a neighbour, not a call centre across the city.
A locksmith on Brays Rd
Concord has always been a suburb of family homes: wide streets, big front gardens, and a mix of Federation houses, interwar Californian bungalows, post-war brick homes and newer knock-down rebuilds. Every era has its own locks, and a lot of the old ones are still on front doors today.
Brays Concord Locksmith works out of 42 Brays Rd. Most Concord addresses are a short drive away, whether you are near the shops on Majors Bay Road, close to Concord Oval, or on the quieter streets toward the river and Massey Park.
Concord is where we start every day.
Being based in the suburb means short drives to most Concord streets, and local knowledge of the homes, the traffic and the back ways around Concord Road.
Locks we see in Concord homes
Old mortice locks
Many original Federation and bungalow front doors still have mortice locks with long, simple keys. They are charming, but many are easy to defeat and parts are getting hard to find. We replace them with modern locks that fit the old door neatly, or fit a deadlock above the original hardware so the heritage look stays.
Knock-down rebuilds
Concord has seen plenty of new homes replace older ones. Builders often fit basic entrance sets. New owners commonly ask us to upgrade to stronger deadlocks or keypad locks.
Granny flats and studios
Backyard granny flats are common in Concord. They usually have a single lock on a single door, which makes them easy to get locked out of and worth securing properly if they are rented out.
Common Concord call-outs
- Lockouts from front doors and self-locking unit doors
- Lock changes after buying or renting a home
- Stiff deadlocks on timber doors that swell in wet weather
- Security door locks that no longer latch
- Window and sliding door locks for rear windows facing the backyard
- Shop locks along Majors Bay Road after closing time
Because we are local, we can often look at a lock problem, explain your options honestly, and come back another day if the fix does not need to happen tonight.
Securing a Concord family home
A typical Concord home has a front door facing the street, a side passage, a back door to the yard and a granny flat or garage behind it. Burglars rarely use the front. They go down the side passage, where neighbours cannot see.
- Lock the side gate with a padlock that cannot be lifted off
- Fit a deadlock to the back door, not only the front
- Put keyed locks on rear windows, especially laundries and bathrooms
- Light the side passage with a sensor light
We can walk around your property with you and point out the weak spots in a few minutes.
