Mobile auto & motorcycle locksmith
From the Pier Street shops to the boat ramp at Altona Beach, we come to your vehicle anywhere in Altona, usually within the hour.
Beach car park, Pier Street or your own driveway, tell us where you are and what you drive and we’ll confirm cover and timing.
Altona sits right on the bay, with Pier Street running the shops down to the beach, Cherry Lake behind it, and Millers Road and Kororoit Creek Road carrying everything else in and out.
Over summer the foreshore car parks fill with boat trailers and fishing gear, while the streets behind Blyth Street and Queen Street stay solidly residential all year round.
Ostan Locksmiths drives across from Werribee on Kororoit Creek Road, and wherever your vehicle has stopped, at the pier, outside the shops or on the driveway, we come to it.
Tell us the make, model and year, whether you're at the Altona Beach car park, the pier or a street behind Queen Street, and whether a key still works before we set off.
We drive across from Werribee on Kororoit Creek Road or Millers Road, whichever is running better that hour, so we reach Altona without sitting on the freeway.
We cut a fresh blade and pair the chip to the immobiliser right at the vehicle, whether it's parked at the boat ramp, on Pier Street or in a driveway near Cherry Lake.
Doors, boot and ignition all get tested before we leave, so your car or boat trailer is ready to move, whether you're heading home or back down to the water.
Scooters and road bikes are everywhere around the foreshore and the Pier Street strip, and they need a different skill set to a car. Every manufacturer uses its own key blank and immobiliser chip, and if no key is left at all the ignition barrel has to be read on site rather than guessed at.
We handle road bikes, scooters and commuters at the vehicle: key cutting, immobiliser programming, lost and broken keys and ignition repair, wherever the bike is parked.

We come to cars, utes, vans and motorcycles across Werribee, the Wyndham suburbs and Melbourne’s inner west, including:
Yes. Altona, including the foreshore, Pier Street and the streets around Cherry Lake, is part of our regular bayside run. We work at the vehicle itself, so nothing needs to be towed to us.
Most call outs to the foreshore car parks are underway within 30 to 40 minutes of you calling, depending on how Kororoit Creek Road and Millers Road are running. Tell Ostan Locksmiths exactly where you are parked and we will work out a time from there.
Yes, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including public holidays. Lockouts at the beach on a Saturday night do not wait for business hours, so neither do we.
Yes. Boat ramp and foreshore lockouts are a regular summer job for us. We open the vehicle without damaging the door, and we will need your registration papers and photo ID to confirm the vehicle is yours first.
Yes. We work at the vehicle where it sits, so there is no need to unhitch or move anything. That matters at the ramp, where reversing a trailer without a key is not an option.
We cut a new key from your VIN or registration papers, or decode the lock directly if needed, then program it to the immobiliser on the spot. Bring photo ID and proof of ownership, we ask for it every time, no exceptions.
We quote the whole job, travel included, when you call and before we set off, so there is no surprise once we arrive. Altona sits inside our normal coverage area.
