How to access Changing Places facilities

To use a Changing Places facility, you will need a Master Locksmiths Access Key (MLAK). An MLAK fits into specially designed locks allowing 24-hour-a-day access to special facilities.

An MLAK works across Australia to open facilities fitted with this lock. For example, a Changing Places facility or a Liberty Swing.

You can order an MLAK from the Master Locksmiths Association of Australasia website. 

Each Victorian Companion Card holder is entitled to one free MLAK.

Only eligible individuals or organisations may purchase an MLAK.

Eligibility includes:

  • Individuals with a disability
  • Those with written authority from a doctor, disability organisation, or community health centre
