What to do now

Report the theft to the police. Have your cards blocked (blocking hotline 116 116). Check whether your address or ID card was with the key. Then have the cylinder changed, ideally the same day.

Key stolen in Gerlingen

Gerlingen is on the border with Stuttgart and stretches up to the Schillerhöhe. Typical buildings there are flats in multi-storey buildings with underground parking and terraced houses on the slope. If the address and key were together, the cylinder should not wait until tomorrow. With housing complexes, tell us the building, the entrance and the name on the doorbell.

What it costs in Gerlingen

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 €.

Worked examples for Gerlingen

Saturday, 10 am, slammed shut, opening and new cylinder: 198 € plus material. Friday, 6:30 am, locked, opening and new cylinder: 228 € plus material. Friday, 1 pm, slammed shut, opening only: 99 €. We confirm the exact amount by phone before we set off.

How it works

If needed, we first open the door without damage. Then we fit the new cylinder and you test the new keys. After that, the stolen key is useless for this door.

Which doors are affected

Write down which keys were on the key ring. The flat door and the front door matter most. The garage, letterbox and cellar come next. For every door with a cylinder we quote a fixed price. With a master key system, the owner decides about the whole system.

Police report and insurance

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.

Common mistakes

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.

Stay alert

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.
