    caj,

     

    You ask “Who is responsible for the locksmith fees?”  I would have thought it is the OC.  Probably the lock and door are common property anyway but Section65 of the Strata Management Act provides at subsection (6) that:

    An owners corporation is liable for any damage to a lot or any of its contents caused by or arising out of the carrying out of any work, or the exercise of a power of entry, referred to in this section unless the damage arose because the owners corporation was obstructed or hindered.
