The Brookvale shop cuts keys from a stock of over 2,000 blanks, and the business also sells, services and installs safes. A recent job moved a building's back door to restricted keys and brought its fire door locks up to code, so it suits a building that needs its keys controlled.

   KC's Northern Beaches Locksmiths is a mobile business based in Balgowlah Heights, with vans covering Narrabeen, Dee Why, Manly, Mona Vale and Newport. Its owner is a Master Locksmith with 40 years in the trade, and the business says it works with Yale, ABUS, Silca and Gainsborough. It cuts restricted keys only with the owner's authorisation, so a building's key system needs that sign-off before work starts. Its licence is stated as held, though no number is printed.
