Emergency locksmith for a broken key – 71686

A broken key blocks the cylinder. If you are stuck outside your door in Remseck am Neckar, you need two things: the broken piece out and the door open. We do both on one call-out, at a fixed price.

Don’t put superglue on the broken piece. Don’t yank hard on the handle. Don’t throw away the broken-off piece. It shows us the key profile.

Remseck am Neckar is where the Rems flows into the Neckar, with Aldingen, Neckargröningen, Neckarrems, Hochberg and Pattonville-Ost. Typical buildings there are houses in several old village centres and in Pattonville-Ost. In old cylinders, the key often breaks right at the edge of the cylinder. Always tell us the district; Aldingen and Hochberg are not next to each other.

Even with a broken key, we only open the door if you live there or are authorised. Show your ID card or passport, or post with your address. If the flat is rented and the cylinder belongs to a master key system, tell us on the phone; then we check whether a swap needs to be agreed with the landlord.

Using glue. Pushing the broken piece deeper with a needle. Carrying on with a bent spare key that will soon break too.

Replace old, thin keys. Look after stiff cylinders or have them changed. Never force a key.
