Sunday and public holiday locksmith: open when everything else is shut
Belgium on a Sunday is quiet. Hardware shops are closed. Neighbourhood locksmiths have their shutters down. But doors still slam, keys still go missing, and locks still seize up. Locksmith emergencies do not follow a weekly schedule, which is why Janssens operates a full service every Sunday and every public holiday, without exception.
No Sunday surcharge — that is a firm commitment
We will say it plainly: we charge the same rate on a Sunday as on a Tuesday. No "weekend supplement," no inflated call-out fee, no surprise line items on the invoice. The price we give you on the phone is what you pay. We have heard too many stories from people in Brussels who were charged double or triple by other locksmiths claiming a "Sunday tariff." That is not how we operate.
Typical Sunday situations we handle
After years of Sunday call-outs, certain patterns have become very familiar:
- Returning from a weekend away — you come back from the Belgian coast or a trip to the Ardennes and discover your keys are in the bag you left at the holiday rental. The door slammed shut, it is Sunday evening, and nobody has a spare.
- Keys lost during a Sunday outing — the Marolles flea market, brunch in Flagey, a walk through the Bois de la Cambre or Woluwe Park. Keys slip from a jacket pocket and vanish.
- A lock that has been warning you for weeks — the cylinder was getting stiffer every day but you kept putting off the repair. On Sunday, it finally gives up entirely. We see this regularly.
- Moving day lock issues — many Brussels moves happen on weekends. The key handed over by the previous tenant does not work, or the new cylinder you ordered turns out to be the wrong size.
How does it work in practice?
Exactly the same as any other day. You ring, describe the situation briefly, and we give you an accurate arrival time along with a price estimate. A technician heads out with a fully stocked vehicle: opening tools, replacement cylinders from Vachette, Bricard, Wilka, and Mul-T-Lock, and everything needed to complete the job on the spot. The only difference compared with a weekday is that the streets are quieter — which often means we arrive faster.
Belgian public holidays: we are here for those too
National Day on 21 July, All Saints' Day, Christmas, Easter Monday, Ascension — Belgium has around ten public holidays each year. We work through every single one. In fact, the long weekends around May bank holidays and the end-of-year break tend to generate more calls than usual. People travel, houses sit empty, keys get left with friends who have gone away themselves. We are always reachable.
