A locksmith advert should separate opening a locked door from repairing or replacing a lock. Customers also need to know what mechanisms you handle and what proof of authorised access you require. A clear service description supports that conversation without publishing sensitive security details or instructions for bypassing locks.
1. Choose the category and the work you actually offer
Choose Services → Home repairs → Locksmith. Work offered includes Emergency opening, Replacement, Installation, Key cutting, Lock repair, Broken key extraction, Smart lock installation and Security upgrades. Locks serviced distinguishes Door, Window, Vehicle, Safe, Padlocks and Smart locks. Lock mechanisms serviced includes Cylinder locks, Multipoint locks, Mortice locks and Electronic locks. Only select vehicle or safe work if that is genuinely part of your service.
2. Write a specific title and description
A focused title could be “Door lock replacement and broken key extraction in Sliema”. Describe your supported work, appointment procedure and any limits on attendance. Explain that you may require evidence of a customer’s right to access the property. Do not publish opening techniques, customers’ key details or photographs exposing private access information.
3. Explain your price and service area
Use a fixed total only where the service and inclusions are defined. Otherwise describe call-out or assessment costs and use an estimated range or price to be agreed. Explain how replacement hardware, out-of-hours attendance and additional work are confirmed before proceeding. Selecting Emergency opening does not justify a guaranteed response time unless you can actually deliver it.
4. Check the listing before submitting
Select supported locks, mechanisms and tasks.
State genuine availability without an unsupported 24/7 claim.
Explain proof-of-access requirements privately.
Keep security-sensitive details out of public photos and descriptions.
Sign in, open Post an ad and complete the required fields. Select a real suggested location, check the pin and provide a valid +356 contact number, or use your saved profile number. Required traits must be completed; optional traits are under Detailed information. Submit once and wait for moderation. An approved listing can appear in the matching search results, but publication does not guarantee enquiries or a Google ranking.
Can I list smart lock installation with conventional repairs?
Yes, if you provide both. Select Smart lock installation alongside the relevant lock and mechanism choices. Explain your supported scope and how compatibility will be checked. Do not promise compatibility with every door or system simply because the option is available in the catalog.
