Emergency locksmith for a stolen key – Ludwigsburg Ost

A stolen key is more serious than a lost one, because someone has it on purpose. In Ludwigsburg Ost (71642) we change the cylinder of your flat or front door. If you are locked out, we open the door first.

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.

Ludwigsburg Ost is between the town centre, Schlößlesfeld and Oßweil, on the slope towards the Neckar. Typical buildings there are late 19th-century villas, terraced houses and blocks of flats. If the address and key were together, the cylinder should not wait until tomorrow. With villas with a garden gate, please tell us which door is the problem.

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, 4 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.

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.

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.

Think of every door the key opens: front door, garage, letterbox. Keep the police report confirmation for your insurance.

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.
