He also installs Keyline and Lagard systems for commercial and residential security upgrades.

Yes — Ben carries key-cutting equipment and cuts spare keys on location during callouts across St Peters, Sydenham, Tempe, and the broader inner west. Locals tell us he's cut replacement keys on the spot after fixing jammed locks and during lockout jobs, saving them a second trip. This mobile capability is particularly valued during after-hours emergencies when hardware stores are closed. He works with restricted key systems and standard profiles alike.
