Taking Locksmithing to New Heights – Centrepoint Tower gets a Re-Key 
We recently completed a major project for the Scentre Group, at Westfield Sydney Shopping Centre, which included the iconic Sydney Centrepoint Tower. The scope of works involved:
- Upgrading the master key system to a new high-security restricted keying platform.
- Re-keying over 700 locks for all doors across three key assets – Westfield Tower Side, Sydney Central Plaa, and Centrepoint Tower.
- Conducting hardware maintenance for all associated doors.
Our Technicians quite literally took security to new heights and got to enjoy truly spectacular views while sitting aloft on the roof of Centrepoint Tower. The project was managed by our sales team with leading technician on the rollout, Ben Pennell.
Client Feedback
The Westfield Sydney Re-Key project across our 3 assets (Westfield tower side, SCP and Centrepoint Tower) which was completed by Independent Locksmiths has been a great success. The project planning, schedule and excitation was on a high level with no issues or incidents. The staff onsite have been well presented and follow the centre rules throughout the project. I must say it was a pleasure working with Independent Locksmiths once again on a large scale project with great results and outcome. Yigal Shirin, Senior Risk & Security Manager, Sydney
A Partnership Built Over Decades
Independent Locksmiths & Security has proudly serviced Westfield Shopping Centres for over 30 years. Our relationship began in 1986 when we supplied and installed a restricted master key system at Westfield Parramatta – a major commercial milestone at the time.
That centre originally opened in 1975 and underwent a large-scale expansion in 1986. Since then, we have continued to grow alongside the Westfield brand, providing keying solutions to their shopping centres nationwide. We remain responsible for servicing the high-security restricted keying systems used across their portfolio – ensuring consistency, compliance, and tight access control across a vast footprint.
Why Restricted Keying Matters
A restricted key system is a cornerstone of any serious commercial security strategy. For a complex site like Westfield Sydney, with multiple tenancies, facilities staff, contractors, and emergency access points – a structured, secure master key system is essential. By regularly reviewing and upgrading keying systems, clients reduce the risk of key duplication, unauthorised access, and lost-key incidents – all while maintaining operational control.
