Emergency locksmith for a broken key – 74379

Key snapped in the lock in Ingersheim, and half of it is still stuck inside? Stop pulling at it. We get the rest out and open the door if you are locked out. We tell you the price on the phone.

Don’t work in the cylinder with tweezers, wire or glue. That often pushes the broken piece deeper. Keep the piece that broke off. Tell us whether the door has just slammed shut (only the latch holds) or is locked.

We come to Ingersheim, about 10.2 km as the crow flies from the ikeytz office in Adalbert-Stifter-Straße. We tell you on the phone when we will arrive. Keep the piece of key ready. Tell us whether it is Großingersheim or Kleiningersheim.

If the cylinder is damaged and you want a new one: Opening plus a new cylinder on the same call-out: slammed shut 148 € / 198 €, locked 178 € / 228 €; cylinder material typically 25–50 € (standard).

We pull the broken piece out of the cylinder with special tools. Then we open the door. If the cylinder is worn, we recommend replacing it and tell you the price first.

The key is hard to insert, catches when you turn it or has to be jiggled. Then the cylinder is dirty or worn. Graphite or cylinder spray often makes it run smoothly again. If that does not help, a new cylinder is cheaper than a snapped key.

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.

Have worn keys copied before they break. If the cylinder sticks, dirt is often the cause; graphite or cylinder spray helps, oil does not.

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