HDB Gate Lock Replacement

HDB gate locks face rain, corridor washing and daily slamming, so they wear out faster than door locks. Uncle Thomas replaces HDB gate locks across Singapore, mechanical or digital, with the price agreed first.

  • From S$100
  • Mechanical or digital
  • No-expiry warranty

The short answer: an HDB gate lock change starts from S$100, including the new lock and installation. Send photos of your gate lock from both sides to 9224 9224 for the exact price before we come.

Signs your gate lock needs replacing

  • Rust on the lock body or keyhole, or a key that grinds.
  • The bolt doesn't slot in or pull back smoothly, so you have to lift or slam the gate to lock it.
  • The handle is loose, or the lock moves when you push it.
  • Keys lost, or you've just moved in.
  • A padlock you no longer trust, or a hasp that's bent.

HDB gate locks we fit

  • Gate locksets and rim gate locks with a key outside and a knob or key inside.
  • Hook bolts, which hook into the frame and resist the gate being lifted.
  • Digital gate locks, opened with PIN, fingerprint or card, often matched to your door lock. See choosing a smart lock for your HDB gate.

Built for Singapore's weather

Gate locks sit in the corridor, so we look for locks and finishes that cope with rain and humidity. Wipe the keypad dry after heavy rain or corridor washing, and change digital gate lock batteries together with the door lock's.

How it works

  1. WhatsApp photos of the gate lock from both sides to 9224 9224.
  2. Get the price first, including the lock and installation.
  3. We fit the new lock, check the bolt lines up with the frame, and hand over new keys.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to replace an HDB gate lock?

From S$100, including the new lock and installation, with a no-expiry warranty. We confirm the price from photos before we come.

Can you put a digital lock on my HDB gate?

Yes. We install digital gate locks of every brand, and can match them to your door lock.

My gate lock is rusty and hard to turn. Can you repair it?

We don't repair locks. A rusty gate lock is best replaced, so it doesn't jam with you outside.

Why won't my HDB gate bolt slot in properly?

Often the gate has dropped slightly on its hinges, so the bolt no longer lines up. If the lock itself is worn, replacing it fixes the problem.
