Motorcycle Locksmith Burwood
If your bike has stopped somewhere in Burwood 3125, we drive to it. Ostan Locksmiths is a mobile motorcycle locksmith, and Burwood keeps us busy: the campus car parks, the delivery scooters working Burwood Highway, and the tourers that live in garages off Riversdale Road. Lost keys, spares, transponder programming and ignition work all happen at the bike.

Where Burwood Calls Us From
Burwood mixes a large campus, a long highway strip and streets of family homes, and each one produces a different kind of key problem.
Deakin Car Park Bays
Deakin's Burwood campus fills the surrounding car parks every teaching day, and plenty of that traffic arrives on scooters and small bikes that then sit in the same bay for hours. Keys go missing in lecture theatres, gym bags and the walk between buildings. Tell us the car park and the nearest building, and we will come to the bay rather than asking you to move a bike you cannot start.
Delivery Riders on Burwood Highway
The strip along Burwood Highway keeps a steady rank of delivery scooters outside the takeaway shops, engines off, riders inside waiting on an order. A key left in a jacket on a chair, or dropped in a car park at night, costs a shift rather than an afternoon. Say you are mid shift when you call and we will be straight with you about the soonest we can be there.
Wattle Park and the Riversdale End
Riders stop at Wattle Park on the way home or meet there before a run, and the grass and the golf course between them swallow a fair number of keys. If yours has gone somewhere between the car park and the trees, leave the bike locked where it stands. We come to the park, take the code off the lock and cut a replacement there.
The Spare That Was Never Cut
Burwood has plenty of long-held family homes with a bike in the garage and exactly one key hanging by the door. That works right up until the day it does not. A spare removes the entire problem, and we can cut and program one in your driveway while the bike stays exactly where it is parked, which is far calmer than doing it in an emergency.

How Our Burwood Callout Works
Three steps, and the bike never leaves the spot it is in.
1. Call and describe
Call 0410 380 354 and tell us the bike, the problem and where in Burwood it is parked. We confirm a price before we travel.
2. We come to Burwood
We travel to the bike wherever it sits in Burwood — kerbside, car park, laneway or driveway. Nothing needs towing.
3. Ride away
We check ID and proof of ownership, cut or program the key or repair the lock, then test it before we leave.
Campus Car Parks, Highway Kerbs and Home Garages
Burwood splits into three kinds of jobs for us. There is the campus, where the challenge is finding one bay among many; the highway, where traffic and clearway times decide where we can safely set up; and the residential streets north and south of Highbury Road, which are wide, quiet and about as easy as this work gets, with room to park beside the bike.
Location detail saves everyone time. On campus, give us the car park and the building you are next to. On the highway, name the shop you are outside and which side of the road. At home, tell us whether the bike is in the garage, on the driveway or in a rear yard, and who is there to open up. Then read the model and year off the registration papers.
Campus bays
Name the car park and the nearest building. We will find the bike from that alone and do the whole job in the bay itself.
Highway shopfronts
Outside the shops on Burwood Highway, tell us the business name and which side of the road. Clearway times shape where we set up the gear.
Home garages
Garages give us light, shelter and space, which makes barrel removal and refitting a cleaner job than doing it at a busy kerb in the rain.
Park car parks
For Wattle Park callouts, the car park entrance and the nearest landmark are enough. A formal street number is not needed to find you at all.
Worth knowing: If the bike is a keyless model with a proximity fob, look for the mechanical emergency blade that came with it and mention what you have on the phone.
Not sure we can reach your bike?
Describe the spot and we will tell you straight away. We work Burwood every week and very little surprises us. Call 0410 380 354.

Burwood Motorcycle Locksmith FAQs
Can you come onto the Deakin campus to a scooter in a car park?
Yes. Campus car parks are one of our regular Burwood calls. We treat them like any other kerb: you stay with the bike, we arrive with the blanks and programming gear, and the key is cut and tested in the bay. Give us the car park number or name and the closest building, since the campus is large and the bays all look alike.
I ride deliveries and cannot afford to lose the night. How fast can you be here?
We will tell you the truth on the phone rather than a number that sounds good. Where we are in Melbourne when you ring decides it, and Burwood Highway traffic decides the rest. What we can say is that the job happens at your scooter, not somewhere you would have to get it towed to, and that we confirm a price on the phone before we travel.
My bike uses a proximity fob rather than a key. Is that something you handle?
Often, yes, but it depends on the system. Kawasaki KIPASS, BMW Keyless Ride and Ducati Hands-Free all work from a proximity fob and each carries a separate mechanical emergency blade for the ignition and locks. That blade is a different job to the fob itself. Tell us the make, model and year on the phone and we will say plainly what we can do before anyone travels.
Do I need to be with the bike while you work?
Someone does. We need proof that the bike is yours before we cut anything, so registration papers and photo identification in the same name need to be on hand. Beyond that, having you there means we can test the key in the ignition, the fuel cap and the seat lock with you watching, and sort anything that does not sit right on the spot.
Do you cover Burwood East and Ashwood as well?
Yes. The three sit in a row and we treat them as one run. Whether the bike is beside the highway in Burwood, in a Burwood East driveway or on an Ashwood side street, nothing about the service changes: we come to the bike, cut and program keys where it stands, and handle ignition, steering lock, fuel cap and seat lock repairs on the spot.
