Local knowledge
The Crows Nest version of this job
This is a suburb of small terraces on a tight grid, and the hardware follows: narrow timber front doors carrying century-old mortice locks that were never cut for a deadbolt. Since the metro opened in 2024 the buildings rising beside them run fobs and lift restrictions, so a single street can hold both eras.
Crows Nest is Victorian and Federation terraces and workers' cottages on the Albany and Hayberry Street grid, plus new towers by the metro, and the hardware follows the era of the door. It is the difference between arriving at Willoughby Road restaurant and bar strip with the right cylinder on board and arriving with a catalogue.
Front doors here open straight onto the footpath, often one original timber door with a rim lock and no porch to stand under. There is no side gate and no back lane on most of these terraces, and a neighbour's wall hard against both sides, so there is rarely a second way in to try. We see the same pattern right across Crows Nest and through St Leonards and Naremburn, so nothing about a Crows Nest call is a surprise.

Trusted locally
Crows Nest customers
“The original mortice lock on our terrace had seized up completely. Rather than push a whole new lock they repaired and rekeyed it. Honest advice, fair and friendly.”
“Great service replacing the locks after we bought our place. Turned up on time, quoted before starting, and the new deadbolts feel far more solid than the old ones.”
“Had them replace the old locks and add proper deadbolts after we bought our place. Turned up on time, talked me through the options with no pressure, and the new hardware feels far more solid. Really tidy work.”
