Emergency locksmith for a stolen key – Erligheim

A stolen key is more serious than a lost one, because someone has it on purpose. In Erligheim (74391) we change the cylinder of your flat or front door. If you are locked out, we open the door first.

1. Report it to the police. 2. Block your cards. 3. Call us and tell us whether you can still get in. 4. Tell your landlord if the key belongs to a master key system.

Erligheim is in the Stromberg hills between Bönnigheim, Freudental and Kirchheim am Neckar. Typical buildings there are houses on the edge of the village and older houses near the old wine press. If the address and key were together, the cylinder should not wait until tomorrow. At night it is dark between the vineyards. A light at the door helps us find you.

Locked out: opening plus a new cylinder 148 € / 198 € (slammed shut) or 178 € / 228 € (locked), material typically 25–50 €. Door open: 89 € Mon–Fri 8 am–6 pm, otherwise 119 €.

Wednesday, 1 pm, slammed shut, opening only: 99 €. Wednesday, 10 pm, locked, opening and new cylinder: 228 € plus material. Saturday, 10 am, slammed shut, opening and new cylinder: 198 € plus material. We confirm the exact amount by phone before we set off.

Check which door is affected. Open it if you are locked out. Change the cylinder, test the locking, hand over the keys. Invoice for your insurance or police report.

If the master key system cannot be changed straight away, a separate cylinder in the flat door is a temporary solution, if the landlord agrees. Keep the old cylinder.

Report the theft to the police. You need the confirmation for your insurance and your bank. Whether your home contents insurance pays for the cylinder change depends on your policy. With a master key system, tell the landlord, because the whole building may be affected.

Waiting to see if the key turns up again. Blocking only your bank cards and forgetting the lock. Leaving the spare key with neighbours with a name tag on it.

Over the next few days, watch out for anything unusual around the building. Tell your neighbours if the key to the building’s front door was stolen.
