“I called numerous places, I spent multiple days scouring the internet to find someone to come help me replace a key for my car. Ian answered almost immediately, the only delay in my service was because he needed to order a key in for me. He was out at my house the next day (many other places I called either didn’t want to come out, quoted me significantly more or weren’t available for over a week) and we had a lovely chat while he worked on my key. Very happy with the professionalism, response time, and customer service. I’ll definitely be seeing him for future locksmith work.”
“Locked my keys in my car! called on a public holiday (Melbourne cup) and Ian answered on the second ring! He drove right over (an hour away) and helped me to get into my car and be able to get to work. Amazing service, lovely guy and fantastic price. Thank you so much for saving me!”

Seymour & District Locksmiths is owned by Ian Larner, an experienced locksmith carrying on a family trade. Ian’s father Ted founded E & I Larner Locksmiths in Melbourne in the 1950s.
Ian worked as a fitter and turner for Victorian Railways before joining his dad, and the two of them opened a shop in Nunawading. When Ian took the business over he renamed it Ian Larner Locksmiths.
In 2007 Ian moved to Seymour, and we’ve been looking after locks, keys and safes for the town and the district around it ever since.
