What to check before hiring a locksmith

Don't leave a key under the doormat or in other predictable spots — use a coded key safe
Invest in cylinders with security class 4-6 for main entry doors
Complement the security system with a deadbolt and side bolts for effective anti-burglary protection
Keep a spare key with a trusted person for emergency situations
Don't force a stuck lock yourself — you risk worsening the problem and increasing the intervention cost
Verify that the locksmith you choose can issue an invoice and offers a work warranty

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can a locksmith arrive in an emergency?

Most locksmiths in urban areas arrive within 20-45 minutes in emergencies. In less densely populated areas or at night, the wait can be 45-90 minutes. Provide the exact address and door type when you call.

Can a locksmith open a door without damaging it?

Yes, an experienced locksmith can open most residential doors without damage using picking or bypass techniques. High-security anti-burglary locks are harder to open non-destructively and may require more time.

Should I change the lock after moving in?

It is strongly recommended. You don't know how many keys exist from the previous set or who has them. Changing the lock (or at least the cylinder) immediately after moving is a basic safety measure that costs relatively little and ensures access is fully under your control.

What types of locks are recommended for maximum security?

Locks with cylinders in security class 5-6 (per EN 1303) offer high burglary resistance. Complement with a multipoint bolt lock and a deadbolt for optimal protection. Consult a locksmith for recommendations suited to your door type.

Can any key be duplicated?

Most simple keys (for standard locks) can be copied quickly. Patent-protected keys (Mul-T-Lock, EVVA, Medeco) cannot be duplicated without special authorization and an access card — an important additional security measure.

What should I do if someone broke in and my key no longer works?

If the lock was forced or tampered with, call an emergency locksmith for assessment and replacement. Document and photograph any signs of forced entry for the police file. Don't force the lock yourself if it's damaged.
