Overview

When an organisation enters voluntary administration or receivership, assets must be secured immediately. Our lockout teams deploy at short notice and work side-by-side with appointed insolvency practitioners.

Insolvency events demand speed, discretion and bullet-proof documentation. Fortress Gold's lockout teams have supported voluntary administrators, receivers and liquidators on appointments ranging from single retail sites to 40-location national footprints. We arrive with locksmiths, evidence bags, asset register templates and the experience to keep emotional staff conversations from becoming legal problems.

Same-day national deployment

Most Sydney metro sites are secured within four hours of instruction. Through our vetted partner network we coordinate simultaneous lockouts across every state — same uniform standard, same reporting format, single point of contact for the practitioner.

Locksmith & key control

We bring licensed locksmiths to every appointment. Cylinders are changed, master key registers are rebuilt, and only your nominated representatives hold keys. Every key handover is signed and photographed.

Asset registers & chain of custody

Officers photograph and itemise stock, IT, cash floats and high-value assets to your template. Tamper-evident seals are applied, registers are signed by all parties on site, and the pack is in your inbox before the next business morning.

Staff & stakeholder management

Plain-clothes or uniformed presence to suit the brief. Officers manage staff exits with empathy, hold the door against creditors and media, and keep neutral records of any hostile interaction in case it's needed in court.

FAQs

Common questions

How fast can you get to site?

Greater Sydney CBD: under two hours. Sydney metro and Newcastle/Wollongong: under four. Regional NSW and interstate: same business day via partner network.

Do you handle multi-site appointments?

Yes — our largest single mobilisation covered 38 sites across four states inside 24 hours, all reporting through one national operations lead.

Are your reports court-ready?

Yes. Reports are timestamped, signed, contain GPS-tagged photos and follow the format most NSW practitioners and their solicitors prefer.

Will officers wear corporate uniform?

Your choice. We can attend in branded uniform for visible deterrence, or in business attire when discretion matters more than presence.
