Lock change after a break-in – Ingersheim

Break-in in Ingersheim (74379) and the cylinder was snapped off or drilled? Then a new cylinder has to go in so the flat is securely closed again. ikeytz comes to you as a mobile service and tells you in advance what the change costs.

Call 110 first. If possible, do not touch the door, the cylinder or the door plate until the evidence has been secured. Take photos of the damage for the insurance. Only then do we change the cylinder.

Whether in Ingersheim, Pleidelsheim or Hessigheim: after a break-in, what matters is a door that locks properly again. In Ingersheim you typically find houses in lower-lying Großingersheim and in higher-lying Kleiningersheim. We pay attention to the cylinder length and the door plate so that the new cylinder is not easy to attack again. Tell us whether it is Großingersheim or Kleiningersheim.

Cylinder change only, with the door open: Mon–Fri 8 am–6 pm 89 €, Mon–Fri 6 pm–8 am, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays 119 €. This includes travel, fitting and a standard euro profile cylinder. A security cylinder typically costs 25–70 € more. Emergency securing, a new door plate or work on the door frame have no price on the list; for these we tell you a fixed price on the phone in advance.

Tuesday, 11 am, door open, cylinder only: 89 €. Tuesday, 8:30 pm, door open, cylinder only: 119 €. Saturday, 8 am, door open, cylinder only: 119 €. We confirm the exact amount by phone before we set off.

First we look: does the lock still hold, is the strike plate in place, is the door plate firm? Then we fit the right cylinder, a security cylinder if needed. Any extra work only after you say yes to the fixed price.

A cylinder that sticks out is often snapped off or pulled out with tools. Security cylinders have a protected breaking point or a reinforced design to prevent this. A security door plate covers the cylinder, so there is hardly anything left to attack.

That depends on your policy and your living situation. Owners report the damage to their insurer. Tenants report it to the landlord and to their own home contents insurance. We issue an invoice listing every item, which you can submit. Please take legal questions to your insurer or an advice service.

Having the door repaired before the police have secured the evidence. Carrying on using the snapped-off cylinder as a makeshift solution. Fitting a cylinder that is too long and sticks out on the outside.
