About Padlock'd Escape Rooms
Padlock'd is a locally owned escape room business, started on the Gold Coast by owner Sean Wilson and run with a local team. Its Surfers Paradise Boulevard site houses rooms such as The Carnival, The Museum Heist, The School of Magic and The Forbidden Jungle, along with the scarier Doll House, Nightmare and Freakshow. For company outings, the operator takes bookings of 10 or more and can move 10 to 57 people through a game inside about 90 minutes. Bigger groups take around two hours or spread across its other Surfers Paradise venues, up to 90 players per 90 minutes. Teams can name a preferred room when they enquire, or leave the choice to the staff. The foyer is roomy, with seating, board games and a bar, which keeps waiting teams occupied between rounds. Drinks packages and platters such as artisan, fruit, wraps, Mediterranean and sweets can be added, and platters need seven days' notice. Games are not physical, and most run for 60 minutes. Scarier rooms use actors and jump scares and are limited to players aged 12 and over. Other rooms suit families, and at least one player in each team has to be over 15. The venue also publishes a detailed guide to wheelchair, Auslan and epilepsy-friendly rooms, which helps when planning for a mixed team. Send an enquiry with your numbers and preferred date to plan the day.
