Frequently asked questions
Can I open my door myself if I'm locked out?
We strongly advise against amateur opening attempts. You risk damaging the lock or door, which will increase the final cost. A professional locksmith has the right tools for damage-free opening.
Can the locksmith intervene if I don't have my ID with me?
Yes, but you'll need to prove you're the resident (mail in your name, neighbor witness, etc.). This is a security measure to prevent break-ins.
How long does an intervention for a locked door take?
Opening a locked door usually takes 5 to 30 minutes depending on the lock type. Multi-point or high-security locks may require more time.
Will my lock be damaged during the opening?
In 90% of cases, our locksmiths open the door without any damage using non-destructive techniques. If drilling is necessary, we inform you beforehand and replace the cylinder.
