Mobile Locksmith in Fourways Gardens
Fourways Gardens is a long-established security estate in northern Sandton, and also the name of the census area around it. Mobile Locksmith Sandton $3 to you inside the estate, after clearing the gate, and to homes just outside it. Both are part of our Sandton mobile locksmith area.
The estate and the census area aren't quite the same
The estate dates from 1984 and is mapped in two parts, Phase 1 and Phase 2, with Camdeboo Road running through both. The 2011 Census sub-place called Fourways Gardens is bigger: 2.71 km², with 5,795 residents in 2,088 households. The two estate phases make up roughly half of that area. The rest is land outside the estate walls, including a stretch of Winnie Mandela Drive and land around Broadacres Drive.
So if you live in Fourways Gardens but outside the estate, the gate procedures below won't apply to you. Just give us your street address.
Phase 1 or Phase 2?
Tell us which phase you live in when you call. It's the quickest way to send the technician to the right part of the estate. Add your street and house or unit number, and the name of your cluster or townhouse complex if you're in one.
What the estate's rules mean for a locksmith visit
A published version of the Fourways Gardens Homeowners Association conduct rules sets out a few things that affect any contractor, a locksmith included:
- residents must make sure contractors follow the gate's access-control and contractor procedures;
- residents must make sure contractors they hire have signed the estate's Contractor's Code of Conduct;
- owners are responsible for the conduct of the contractors they bring in.
Estate agents also describe visitors as being pre-cleared at the entrance. Before we come, check with the estate office what it currently requires and pass on any forms or registration steps. Mobile Locksmith Sandton has no arrangement with the HOA: the technician comes in as your contractor, under the estate's rules.
Two sets of rules for cluster and townhouse owners
Fourways Gardens is made up of cluster and townhouse complexes, and the HOA's rules take precedence over the rules of the individual schemes inside the estate. So before replacing an outside lock or handle, check both: your complex's body-corporate rules, and the estate's architectural and conduct rules. Inside doors and the cylinder on your own front door are rarely an issue, but visible hardware sometimes is. Our lock replacement page explains how to choose a lock that fits your door.

Fourways Gardens: questions customers ask
Can you come in if I'm locked out and my visitor code is on my phone inside?
Phone the gate from another phone. Security can usually confirm that you live there and let the technician through. Once inside, the technician will still need to see that the home is yours before opening the door.
Do you also work on the estate's gates and booms?
No. The estate's own entrance and access-control systems are the HOA's responsibility. We work on the locks of your home.
Are the neighbouring suburbs covered too?
Yes: see locksmith in Beverley and locksmith in Kengies.
