Emergency locksmith for a broken key – Kirchheim am Neckar

A broken key blocks the cylinder. If you are stuck outside your door in Kirchheim 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.

We come to Kirchheim am Neckar, about 19.1 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. Kirchheim is in the north of the district. We tell you the arrival time on the phone in advance.

If you are locked out, the opening price applies: 99 € or 149 € (slammed shut), 129 € or 179 € (locked), removal of the broken piece included. If you can still get in and only the broken piece needs to come out, we tell you the price on the phone first.

Monday, 10:30 am, locked: 129 €. Monday, 7 pm, door slammed shut: 149 €. Sunday, 10 am, locked: 179 €. We confirm the exact amount by phone before we set off.

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.

With thin hook tools we reach behind the teeth of the key fragment and pull it forward. Before that, the cylinder has to be in its starting position. If the broken piece is stuck at an angle, we turn it back first. Drilling is rarely needed for this.

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.
