Mobile Locksmith in Morningside Manor
Morningside Manor is a separate suburb from Morningside. It's smaller, lies to the north-east, and has Kelvin Drive running through it. At Mobile Locksmith Sandton, we're a fully mobile locksmith service: book a visit and we bring the work to your apartment, townhouse or house. It's part of our Sandton mobile locksmith coverage.
Manor, not Morningside
The two names are a common mix-up on booking forms and in map searches. The 2011 Census treats them as separate areas. Morningside Manor had around 2,100 residents in about 800 households on 1.6 km², a fraction of its neighbour's size. If your address is in Morningside itself, the page you want is locksmith in Morningside. We cover both, but the correct suburb name helps the technician find you.
Apartments, townhouses and houses
Seeff describes Morningside Manor as a mix of apartments, townhouses and standalone houses. Each one changes who has to say yes before a lock is changed:
| Home | Usually yours | Usually not yours |
|---|---|---|
| Apartment | Your unit's front door lock | Lobby doors, stairwell and parking gates |
| Townhouse | Front, back and patio doors of your unit | The complex gate and pedestrian gate |
| Standalone house | Every lock on the property | Nothing, unless you rent |
If you rent, your lease may override the table: many leases require the landlord's consent and a copy of the key.
Directions: Kelvin Drive and Rivonia Road
Kelvin Drive is the main road through the suburb, and Rivonia Road runs along part of its western side. The Morning Glen Mall on Kelvin Drive marks the boundary with Gallo Manor. The Sandspruit stream and Ernest Ullman Park are inside the suburb too, and make useful reference points. A cross street, along with your complex name and unit number, helps.
Kelvin Drive doesn't run through the suburb of Kelvin, which is further east. If you're in Kelvin, see locksmith in Kelvin.
Just moved in?
New owners and tenants rarely know how many keys to the place exist. Previous occupants, agents, cleaners and contractors may all have had copies. Changing the cylinders or locks on external doors is a straightforward way to start fresh. Our moving-house lock security checklist lists what to check, and lock replacement explains the choices.
Cost
You'll get the price before any work starts. Call-out: R250 call-out fee. Quotations: The technician assesses the job on site and gives you the price before any work starts. Nothing is done until you agree. Payment: EFT, cash or card

Morningside Manor: questions customers ask
Is Morningside Manor part of Morningside?
No. It's a separate suburb next to Morningside, Gallo Manor, Wendywood and Edenburg.
My apartment door locks itself when it closes. Can you get me in?
Usually, yes. A latch that locks as soon as the door is pulled shut is a classic way to be caught outside a flat. The technician tries to open the door without damage, and you'll need to show you live there. See lockout help.
Can you fit a lock the body corporate has specified?
Yes, if we can source it. Send us the specification or a photo of a matching door in the complex when you book.
