Verification before every door opening

We only open a door after checking your identity and right of access. Have an ID and proof of residence, tenancy agreement or the owner's permission ready. If those are not immediately available, we agree another verification method. If access cannot be verified, we do not open.

Tips for Jammed Lock in Schaerbeek

The assessment determines the method and necessary work, which are explained before you agree.
Check ground-floor windows first. Never climb the facade, it is dangerous. Ask a neighbor if they can check from their balcony or window
Check the business identity and VAT number. Ask for an explanation of the proposed work and keep the intervention documents.
Some faults need an on-site examination. Do not force the door; describe the symptoms and wait for the assessment.

Janssens in Schaerbeek: a local address and direct contact

Janssens Locksmith is operated by LAMRO GROUP, Chaussée de Louvain 629, 1030 Schaerbeek, VAT BE0712.625.742. For a blocked door or a lock replacement, call 0495 205 400. The address also appears on our Google Maps listing.

Which entrance is affected?

Give the street, house number and affected entrance: shared hall, apartment, cellar or garage. Whether you are in Meiser, Dailly, Helmet or near Josaphat Park, a neighbourhood name alone is not enough to arrange a visit. Mention an entrance on another street, an upper floor or an unusable intercom. Availability and arrival time are confirmed for your address.

A door that has slammed shut and a door locked with a key need different assessments. Explain whether the key turns, is stuck or has been lost. The door opening method depends on the condition of the lock; any proposed replacement is explained before you agree.

Repair the lock or replace the cylinder?

If the mechanism works but keys have been lost, cylinder replacement may be sufficient. If the door closes poorly or the lock case is damaged, the mechanism, strike plate and alignment need checking to determine the repair. Do not force a key that resists.

In an apartment building, mention whether the same key opens the shared entrance and your home. Notify the building manager about shared equipment and prepare proof of your right to access the property. Changing a cylinder without identifying a shared key system can remove access you still need.

A spare key and a visit to the shop

For key duplication, bring a usable original. A protected key may require an ownership card or a manufacturer order: see the requirements for security keys. The shop at number 629 is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Key copying feasibility and parts availability are checked for each model. For a home call-out, availability and arrival time are confirmed by phone.

Frequently asked questions

What is the arrival time in Schaerbeek?

The estimate depends on your address and availability when you call. No identical arrival time is guaranteed for every municipality.

How do I confirm the conditions before you travel?

Describe the problem and ask for the total price, travel charges and any supplements. The amount is confirmed before you agree. If an on-site inspection changes the required work, we ask for your agreement again.

Can you open the door using non-destructive methods when the mechanism allows, to avoid damaging it?

We prefer a non-destructive method when the door and mechanism allow it. A damaged or locked mechanism may require drilling or replacement, explained before you agree.

Does the whole lock need replacing?

Not always. An adjustment or replacement of just the cylinder may be enough, depending on the diagnosis. Compatibility and parts availability are checked before the work is confirmed.

What should I prepare before you arrive?

Your full address, door type, symptoms and proof of your right to access the property. For a shared entrance, notify the building manager. Do not force a key that resists.

Can I call at night or on Sunday?

Yes, you can call 24/7. Availability, timing and any supplements are confirmed during the call, before dispatch.
