Emergency locksmith for a broken key – Möglingen

Your key broke in Möglingen (71696) and the door won’t open? This often happens with old keys that have worn thin. ikeytz removes the broken piece from the cylinder and opens the door, usually without damage.

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.

A broken key can usually be removed quickly. Typical buildings in Möglingen are estate houses built between 1960 and 2000 and a few old farmsteads on the through road. Tell us the street and a cross street; that saves searching.

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.

Wednesday, 10 pm, door slammed shut: 149 €. Wednesday, 1 pm, locked: 129 €. Wednesday, 1 pm, door slammed shut: 99 €. 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.

If the cylinder is damaged after the broken piece is removed, it usually belongs to the landlord. A swap makes sense then, but agree it with the landlord if the cylinder belongs to a system. We swap single cylinders at a fixed price.

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

Have a new key cut from the original. Check that the cylinder turns easily. Keep the invoice.
