Locks and buildings in Tanglin

Landed homes and bungalows

Main gates, side gates, front doors and safes, each with its own lock. We confirm ownership before opening anything and can rekey the whole property by replacing the cylinders.

Luxury condominiums

Premium digital and smart locks with app access, often managed through a concierge. We coordinate with management and check proof of residence.

Home safes and watch safes

Safes holding passports, jewellery, watches and documents. Uncle Thomas is a safe specialist and opens them, usually without drilling, then changes the combination.

Lock tips for Tanglin homes and businesses

In large Tanglin homes, keys tend to multiply: helpers, drivers, gardeners and contractors may all have had one at some point. If you've lost track, the simplest fix is to rekey every gate and door in one visit so old keys stop working. Do the same for safe combinations whenever household staff change.

A typical call in Tanglin

A family in a Tanglin bungalow can't open the study safe after a helper who knew the code has left. After confirming ownership, Uncle Thomas opens the safe without drilling and sets a new combination that only the family knows.

Jobs we often do in Tanglin

  • Home safe and watch safe opening
  • Combination changes when household staff change
  • Car lockouts in private driveways and condo carparks
  • Gate and main door lock upgrades

Tanglin Locksmith FAQs

Can you open a home safe in Tanglin discreetly?

Yes. Uncle Thomas works quietly and alone if you prefer, opens the safe usually without drilling, and can set a new combination on the spot. We check the safe is yours first.

Should I change my safe combination when my helper or staff leave?

It's a good idea. Anyone who has seen or been told the code can still open the safe. We change combinations on most safe types in one visit.

Do you work at embassies and diplomatic residences in Tanglin?

We work wherever we're authorised to. Security will need to clear us in advance, and we'll need written authorisation for any lock or safe.

How much does a locksmith in Tanglin cost?

The same as anywhere in Singapore: it depends on the lock and the time of day, and we confirm the price before we start. See our price list.
