Mobile Locksmith in Pomona

Estates and secure complexes

Property portals describe Pomona as a mix of freestanding houses, secure townhouse complexes and newer estates, and current listings include about as many townhouses as houses, plus a good number of flats. Estates such as Bali Sands Estate are listed here, and OpenStreetMap shows named developments such as The Orchards and Santorini on Outeniqua Avenue. Living behind a gate changes how a lockout works:

1. let the guardhouse know a locksmith is on the way, or send us the visitor code your estate uses;
2. tell us the estate name, the street inside it and your unit or erf number;
3. check whether the body corporate or HOA specifies the locks on unit doors before we fit new ones.

We have no arrangement with any estate; your guardhouse decides who comes in. Our article locked out of a townhouse or estate home covers the rest.

Warehouses on Maple Road and E.P. Malan Road

Pomona's industrial side runs along Maple Road. OpenStreetMap labels it Maple Street, and listings use both names. Maple Industrial Park at 36 Maple Road is listed with round-the-clock security and access control. Merrod Truck Yard at 96 Maple Street is a secure park with large roller shutter doors, and a neighbouring site on E.P. Malan Road is being developed for logistics. Another facility on Maple Road has separate entrances for staff and trucks. For premises like these we handle:

• roller shutter door locks and the padlocks that secure them;
• yard-gate, cage and container padlocks;
• office doors and safes in the admin block;
• new cylinders when a key-holder leaves the company.

Phone your park's gate before we arrive, with your unit number and the name of whoever is meeting us. See commercial locksmith work and key control for businesses.

Pomona Road on the sign, another name on the map

The main road through Pomona is still called Pomona Road on many business addresses, but OpenStreetMap now labels it Petrus "Chilly" Magagula Road. The census also calls the area "Pomona AH", from its days as agricultural holdings. If your address uses any of these names, you're in the right place. Give us the nearest cross street, such as Maple Road, Outeniqua Avenue or Great North Road.

Brentwood Park smallholdings

Brentwood Park AH is a smallholding pocket enclosed by Pomona: a census area of 941 people (2011) on roads such as 1st Avenue, 4th Road, East Road and Stanley Road. Brentlake Estate is on East Road. On a smallholding, the problems are usually a padlocked farm gate, an outbuilding or store room with a lost key, or a house door at the end of a long driveway. Tell us which gate to come to. Choosing padlocks for yards applies to smallholding gates too.

Proof and payment

We ask for proof of residence or ownership before opening a door, safe or car, and we try non-destructive entry first. R250 call-out fee. The technician assesses the job on site and gives you the price before any work starts. Nothing is done until you agree. Pay by EFT, cash or card.
