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 Großbottwar
Thursday, 11:15 pm, door open, cylinder only: 119 €. Thursday, 1 pm, door open, cylinder only: 89 €. Saturday, 10 am, door open, cylinder only: 119 €. We confirm the exact amount by phone before we set off.
How we change it
We check which cylinder is fitted, measure the length and fit a new one. You test the new keys yourself. You can have more keys cut later; with security profiles this is only possible with the security card.
Cylinder or the whole lock?
After losing a key, a new euro profile cylinder is almost always enough. The mortice lock in the door stays, because the key only operates the cylinder. We only replace the whole lock if it is damaged. This saves money and time.
Rented flat and master key system
If your key belongs to a master key system, losing it can affect the whole building. Tell the landlord or the property management. They decide whether only your cylinder or the whole system is changed. The cost for a system can be high; many personal liability insurance policies have a separate add-on for this. A single flat cylinder, on the other hand, is a standard case with a fixed price.
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.
