Clarify first, then change
Quickly check the usual places and ask at the local lost property office (Fundbüro). If the key is really gone, call us. Tell us whether you can still get into the flat; the price depends on it.
Out and about in Schwieberdingen and the surrounding area
In Schwieberdingen you typically find flats in new housing areas and old houses in the centre. Tell us whether the lost key also locks other doors; then we can plan for that straight away. If you are standing at the door after a late shift: the night rate applies from 6 pm, and we tell you the amount in advance.
What the new cylinder in Schwieberdingen costs
Door open: 89 € Monday to Friday during the day, otherwise 119 €, standard cylinder included. If the door has to be opened first, the opening (99 € / 149 € slammed shut, 129 € / 179 € locked) is followed by fitting in the same trip for 49 €; the cylinder then typically costs 25–50 € (standard).
Worked examples for Schwieberdingen
Wednesday, 1 pm, door open, cylinder only: 89 €. Wednesday, 10 pm, door open, cylinder only: 119 €. Saturday, 3 pm, door open, cylinder only: 119 €. We confirm the exact amount by phone before we set off.
What happens at the door
If you are inside, it is a simple swap: old cylinder out, new one in, test the lock. If you are outside, we first open the door without damage, if the door allows it, and then change the cylinder.
Length and profile
The new cylinder has the same length as the old one, unless the old one stuck out too far. Then we choose a shorter one. The locking is new, and old keys no longer fit. If you want more protection, choose a security cylinder with a card.
A single cylinder is simple
If your key only locks your flat door, the case is simple: new cylinder, new keys, done. If it also locks the front door of the building, the basement and the letterbox, it is probably a master key system. Then the owner has to decide. In both cases, we tell you the price beforehand.
Typical mistakes
Waiting, even though your address and key were lost together. Only thinking about the lock on the flat door, but forgetting the garage or letterbox. Sending someone out without a fixed price.
For the future
A spare key with family or neighbours saves money next time. With security cylinders, keep the security card separate from the key.
