To use the Changing Places facilities provided by the City of Mandurah, you will need a Master Locksmiths Access Key (MLAK).

The City does not offer a loan key service, so we encourage people to apply for and purchase their own key. A limited number of free MLAKs are available through the City by application – email hcc@mandurah.wa.gov.au for more information.

MLAKs can also be purchased directly from the Master Locksmiths Association of Australasia Ltd. They are available to people with disability, family members, support workers and disability organisations. To apply, visit masterlocksmiths.com.au/mlak.

Wheelchair accessible toilets are also available at Changing Places locations and can be used without a key.

This Changing Place contains the following equipment:

  • A Prism Medical C450M Hoist with a constant charge system - the hoist crossbar is compatible with loop style slings
  • Adult sized, height adjustable Astor Bannerman CTE Nivano Change Table - this table is waterproof and suitable for showering

Slings (disposable or otherwise) are not provided in Changing Places. If you are unsure about your sling’s compatibility with the hoist provided in this Changing Place, please contact the supplier on 1300 789 420,  manufacturer or prescribing therapist, or call the Independent Living Centres Advisory Service on 1300 885 886 for advice.

An MLAK will unlock other Changing Places facilities and accessible public toilets across Australia that are part of the MLAK system.
