Emergency locksmith: child alone in the flat – Walheim

A child alone behind the door in Walheim is pure stress for parents. If your child is fine, we open the door without damage. If there is any danger, the rule is: call 112 first.

Talk calmly to your child through the door. Check whether the cooker, bath, balcony or windows are a danger. If there is danger: 112. Otherwise call us and stay at the door.

We come to Walheim, about 15.7 km as the crow flies from the ikeytz office in Adalbert-Stifter-Straße. We give you an honest arrival time on the phone. If your child gets distressed or stops answering, call 112. There is little space to stop in front of many houses. Tell us where it is possible.

Usually the door has just slammed shut: 99 € Mon–Fri 8 am–6 pm, otherwise 149 €. If it was locked: 129 € or 179 €.

Monday, 2:30 pm, locked: 129 €. Monday, 2:30 pm, door slammed shut: 99 €. Monday, 7 pm, door slammed shut: 149 €. We confirm the exact amount by phone before we set off.

We usually open the door via the latch, without damaging the cylinder. With a door that has slammed shut, this is often quick. Then you are back with your child.

Many flat doors have a fixed knob on the outside. If the door slams shut, you cannot get in without a key. Children sometimes push the door shut from inside while their parents are briefly outside. If only the latch has clicked into place, opening is usually quick and without damage.

Nobody needs to feel embarrassed about calling 112 when a child is behind the door. Better once too often. The control centre decides whether the fire brigade comes. We are the right help once it is clear that there is no danger.

Children sense when adults are panicking. Talk calmly, sing a song or tell a story through the door. That helps more than rattling the handle.

Rattling the door with force, which frightens the child. Asking the child to go to the lock or the window. Calling a locksmith first instead of 112 when there is danger.

Take time for your child. Take the key out of the lock when you leave the flat. A spare key with neighbours helps next time.
