Emergency locksmith for a lost key – Kirchheim am Neckar

No key, door shut: in Kirchheim am Neckar we open flat and front doors at a fixed price. What matters for the price: has the door just slammed shut (zugefallen), or is it locked (abgeschlossen)?

If only the latch has clicked in, the door has slammed shut. If you locked it with the key, the bolt is thrown. That makes the price difference: 99 € or 129 € Mon–Fri 8 am–6 pm.

When you are locked out, you want to get back in fast. Typical buildings in Kirchheim am Neckar are houses in the lanes of the old village and houses along the railway line. Kirchheim is in the north of the district. We tell you the arrival time on the phone in advance.

Door opening, door slammed shut: Mon–Fri 8 am–6 pm 99 €, Mon–Fri 6 pm–8 am, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays 149 €. Locked: 129 € or 179 €. If you want a new cylinder straight away because the key was lost with your address: Opening plus a new cylinder on the same call-out: slammed shut 148 € / 198 €, locked 178 € / 228 €; cylinder material typically 25–50 € (standard).

Friday, 1 pm, locked, opening and new cylinder: 178 € plus material. Friday, 6:30 am, locked, opening and new cylinder: 228 € plus material. Saturday, 3 pm, slammed shut, opening and new cylinder: 198 € plus material. We confirm the exact amount by phone before we set off.

Arrive, look at the door, open it. If the door has slammed shut, we usually open it via the latch; if it is locked, via the cylinder. A new cylinder only once you say yes.

The latch is the slanted bolt that clicks into place when you pull the door shut. The bolt only comes out when you lock the door. We usually open doors that have slammed shut via the latch, without touching the cylinder. With locked doors we work on the cylinder. That is why we ask about it on the phone.

In a rented flat, the landlord may also have a spare key. Ask them if you can reach them. If the lost key belongs to a master key system, you need to tell them anyway.

Leave a spare key with someone you trust, without an address tag. To avoid a door slamming shut on you, take a second to think about your key as you leave.

A spare key with family, friends or neighbours saves time and money. Never put your address on your key ring.
