Get the fixed price in writing before the locksmith starts work. The classic pattern: phone quote S\$80, on-arrival "inspection" reveals "special lock" requiring S\$400+. Reputable locksmiths confirm the price on arrival before touching anything, and the price matches the phone quote within 10-20%. You owe nothing for a no-touch visit.
Standard HDB lockout during office hours: S\$60-150. After-hours (6pm-9am, weekends, public holidays): S\$150-280. Condo lockouts run 20-30% higher due to guardhouse coordination and sometimes proprietary lock systems. Landed home lockouts S\$120-300 office hours. Prices significantly above these for a simple lockout are likely the scam pattern.
Not on the spot. Legitimate locksmiths open your door, restore the lock, and let you decide on upgrades with multiple quotes over the next few days. Pressure to upgrade "immediately for security" after a lockout is the upsell pattern. Digital locks run S\$450-1,500 installed — worth researching brands (Samsung, Igloohome, Philips, Yale) before committing.
Check for ACRA business registration, a verifiable physical address (not just a mobile number), and Google reviews with 20+ entries over 6+ months. New Facebook profiles with suspicious 5-star reviews are the fraud pattern. Reputable locksmiths have a shopfront you can walk into the next day if the new lock fails.
No. Condo main doors often have proprietary locks (Mul-T-Lock, Kaba) installed by the developer. Same-model replacements must be ordered through the brand's local distributor — generic replacements void the MCST's approved lock list. Ask specifically whether the locksmith has your condo's lock type.
