You know the price before work starts.
For anything bigger than a quick fix, Andy quotes a fixed price. He comes out and has a look, or you text him a few photos.
Quick fixes such as a lockout, a door that won’t lock or a beeping alarm battery start at $85 incl. GST. That covers the call-out and the first 15 minutes on weekdays, 9 am to 5 pm, in the service area. Parts are extra.
“Open sesame” is not a password.
With Alarm.com, every visitor gets a code of their own. You decide on which days and at what hours it works, and the app tells you when it has been used.
- Arm and disarm the alarm from wherever you are.
- Watch live video and answer the doorbell on your phone.
- Lock the front door or close the garage after you’ve left.
- Switch lights and aircon over Z-Wave.
Happy wife, happy life.
The Professor’s brief for his security installation:
“My wife does not want to waste towel space, and please no power points in the cupboard because of small children.”
This is the rack Andy built into the cupboard. It runs:
- 12 CCTV cameras
- The alarm system
- Z-Wave home automation for locks, aircon and lights
You deal with Andy. Nobody else.
Andreas “Andy” Weinert moved from Germany to the Northern Beaches and started Ali Ba Ba Lockmasters & Security Specialists in 1996. The number on this page is his own mobile.

What people ask first
How do I get a price?
For most work Andy gives you a fixed price, either after a visit or from photos you text to 0414 552 600. You know the price before work starts.
What does a small job cost?
Quick fixes start at $85 incl. GST: a simple lockout, a door that won’t lock, a beeping alarm battery, a key for a window lock or letterbox. The price covers the call-out and the first 15 minutes on weekdays between 9 am and 5 pm in the service area. Parts are extra.
Which areas do you cover?
The Northern Beaches and the lower North Shore of Sydney, from Mosman to Palm Beach. If you are not sure whether you are in the area, call and ask.
Can I run the alarm from my phone?
Yes. Systems on Alarm.com are armed and disarmed in the app. The same app shows your cameras, locks the doors, closes the garage and tells you when something happens at home.
Is someone watching the alarm around the clock?
If you want that, yes. Back-to-base monitoring runs through Central Monitoring Services, an independent control room Andy has worked with for over 20 years. It starts at $1 a day incl. GST and does not need a landline.
Will my dog or cat set off the alarm?
Andy fits pet-friendly motion detectors, so the alarm can stay armed while your pets are at home. Tell him who lives at your place and he plans the sensors around them.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Ali Ba Ba Security Pty Ltd holds NSW Master Security Licence No. 000102708. Insurance: Public and products liability, $10 million each, with GIO.
Security should be simple.
And pet friendly, too. Tell Andy what you want to protect.
