Last updated: October 2026
1. The service
Jacob Local Locksmith provides residential, commercial, automotive, safe and emergency locksmith services in The Gap, QLD and surrounding suburbs. We will carry out the work with due care and skill, using materials fit for their purpose.
2. Quotes and pricing
For non-emergency work we provide a written quote up front. For callouts we give you an indication of cost over the phone and confirm the price on arrival before work begins. Work is only carried out once you have agreed to the quoted price.
3. Payment
Payment is due on completion of the work unless otherwise agreed in writing. Accepted payment methods will be confirmed at the time of booking. A callout fee may apply where we attend but the work cannot proceed for reasons outside our control.
4. Authority to attend
You confirm that you are authorised to request access to the property, vehicle or safe we are asked to open. Where there is any doubt about authority, we may request reasonable evidence of entitlement before proceeding.
5. Existing hardware
We take care when working with existing locks and hardware. However, older, worn or corroded mechanisms can fail during normal servicing. Where this occurs we will explain the situation and quote any additional work before proceeding.
6. Consumer guarantees
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy conferred by the Australian Consumer Law or any other applicable law that cannot be excluded. Our liability is limited to the extent permitted by law.
7. Cancellation
You may cancel a booking by phone or email. Where we have already dispatched and a cancellation is received after arrival, a callout fee may be payable. We may also reschedule where circumstances (such as an emergency callout) require it, and will communicate any change promptly.
8. Contact
These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland. For any matter arising from a service, contact Jacob Local Locksmith at 996 Waterworks Road, The Gap, QLD 4061, by email at admin@jacoblocallocksmith.com or phone +61 7 2114 6106.
