We answer the phone at 3am
A 24/7 promise is only worth something if somebody picks up. Our teams work shifts so there is always a technician on standby, not an answering service.

Our story
Built for the calls nobody plans for
We understand that lock and key emergencies rarely happen at a convenient time. That is exactly why 1 for All Locksmith exists.
What started as a small mobile operation answering after-hours call-outs has grown into a team of qualified technicians covering Johannesburg, Pretoria and greater Gauteng, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The work has not changed: somebody is stuck, and they need a professional who arrives quickly, fixes it properly and charges fairly.
With years of industry experience, our technicians are equipped to handle everything from vehicle lockouts and ignition repairs to residential lock changes, commercial security solutions and safe opening. Whether you have locked your keys in the car, lost access to your home, need urgent lock repairs after a break-in, or require assistance with a commercial security system, we are ready to help.
Our mission
Rapid response. Honest workmanship. Dependable service.
Our commitment is simple, and we measure ourselves against it on every single call-out.
We use professional tools and proven techniques to resolve lock and security issues efficiently while protecting your property from unnecessary damage. Non-destructive entry comes first — forcing a door is the last resort, not the opening move.
Serving homes, businesses and motorists throughout Gauteng, 1 for All Locksmith has built a reputation for reliability, professionalism and customer-focused service. No matter the time of day or night, you can count on our team for expert assistance.

What makes us different
Plenty of people can open a lock. Fewer show up when it matters.
Four things we hold ourselves to — and that customers tell us they notice.
We work from the road, not a branch
Teams are positioned across Johannesburg, the East Rand, the West Rand, Pretoria and Centurion, which is how a 15-minute response is realistic instead of a slogan.
One team, four specialities
Automotive, residential, commercial and safe work all in-house. You do not get sent elsewhere halfway through the job.
The price comes before the work
You hear the price before we start. The final invoice and payment arrangements are handled once the job is finished to your satisfaction.
