Never Get Locked Out: A Guide to the Garage Key Override if power goes out
The Override system is a keyed lock cylinder installed through the face of your garage door. It is connected via a steel cable to the motor's manual release carriage. When you turn the key and pull the cylinder, it disengages the motor, allowing you to lift the door by hand.

Choosing High-Quality Fire Rated Leversets for Apartments

When it comes to apartment safety, fire-rated leversets are not optional — they’re essential. At Glebe Point Locksmiths, we regularly supply and install compliant, high-quality fire-rated door hardware designed to meet Australian Standards and body corporate requirements.

Why Fire Rated Leversets Matter in Apartments

Fire-rated leversets are specifically tested to withstand high temperatures for a set period of time, helping to slow the spread of fire and smoke. In apartment buildings, this can mean the difference between safe evacuation and serious risk.

Australian building codes require fire doors in apartments to be fitted with approved fire-rated hardware, including leversets, hinges, and closers. Using non-compliant hardware can void fire certification and expose owners and strata managers to serious liability.

What Makes a Good Fire Rated Leverset?

A quality fire-rated leverset should offer:

AS1905.1 fire compliance

Durable construction for high-traffic use

Smooth operation for easy egress

Compatibility with fire doors and closers

Options for keying alike or master key systems

Child Window Lock Safety Installers – Following NSW Guidelines
Under current NSW regulations, all windows above the ground floor in strata and rental properties must have restricted opening locks that prevent windows from opening more than 12.5 centimetres. This simple safety measure helps reduce the risk of falls and keep children safe at home.

We supply and install compliant window locks and restrictors for all window types — aluminium, timber, and sliding — ensuring your property meets legal standards while still allowing ventilation.

Keep Kids Safe with Lockable Window Winders

Lockable window winders are a smart and simple way to make your home safer — especially for families with young children. These devices allow you to open your window for airflow while limiting how far it can wind out, preventing dangerous falls or injuries.

In NSW, child safety window restrictions are required in many homes and apartments, and lockable window winders meet these standards perfectly. They feature a built-in key lock and a restricted opening length, usually around 100mm, to comply with building code safety requirements.

At Glebe Point Locksmiths, we supply and install a wide range of lockable and compliant window winders for aluminium, timber, and security windows. Our installations are neat, secure, and fully aligned with child safety regulations — giving you peace of mind while keeping your windows functional and stylish.

🔑 Professional installation, local service, and safety you can trust.
