Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We make key copies and duplicates in Sabadell. We go to the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and start work. Replacing just the cylinder takes 30-45 minutes per door. The mechanical lock stays, and we replace only the inner cylinder where the key fits. The new key is completely different and won't open with the old one. It's the most economical option and the one we recommend when the lock is of good quality and in good condition. Replacing the full lock costs more and is justified when the lock is old or low quality, and we want to take the opportunity to upgrade the security level. The job takes 60-90 minutes per door.

How we work

Call us, text us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours. The pattern repeats every year. May arrives, British, Irish, and French homeowners return to Torrevieja, open their apartment doors that have been locked since February. They discover surprises. A washing machine stopcock that failed over winter and is now dripping onto the utility room floor. An air conditioning thermostat that no longer responds to the remote. Blinds stuck halfway up because the internal tape has dried out. A musty smell in the master bedroom coming from behind the built-in wardrobe. We have verified professionals available in under 2 hours. Choose the service and request a quote.

When to call for key copies and duplicates in Sabadell

Damage-free opening when possible, full lock or cylinder replacement, installation of high-security anti-bumping cylinders. When a customer calls us for an emergency (keys left inside, lost key, locked out), we first assess if damage-free opening is possible. Most standard locks can be opened using professional techniques (picking, impressioning, manipulation) in 15-30 minutes without damaging the cylinder. This saves the customer the cost of replacing the entire cylinder. For high-end anti-bumping cylinders, damage-free opening may not be possible, and the only solution is to drill the cylinder and replace it, which is more expensive but leaves the door as new with a reinforced security cylinder. Our second most common service is electrical work. We update old fuse boxes to current REBT regulations. We install separate RCDs for different zones so that if one trips, the whole house doesn't lose power. And we replace old fittings in kitchens partially renovated fifteen years ago. Then there's everything else. Blinds with broken tapes, new fly screens, lock replacements when a homeowner can't remember how many key copies they gave to the previous letting agent, preventative maintenance before peak season.

Materials and brands

For a property on the Costa Blanca with medium risk (residential area with neighbours, not isolated), we recommend a mid-to-high quality anti-bumping cylinder. Brands like Tesa T80, Mottura Champions, or Cisa Astral are what we sell most. These cylinders have security pins that prevent the bumping technique, that sharp knock with a special key that opens any standard cylinder in under 60 seconds. They come with a registered security key, which cannot be copied without authorisation at any hardware store. And they have European EN1303 certification, which guarantees resistance to manipulation for years. Their cost is reasonable, and the real security improvement is enormous. 30 days on labour. Premium cylinders with official manufacturer warranty up to 10 years. Full lock or just cylinder replacement depending on the case. Quality brand and new set of keys.

Indicative pricing

The price for key copies and duplicates in Sabadell typically ranges between €50 and €385. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and labour time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. For apartments in blocks with neighbours, an active community, and natural surveillance, we recommend mid-to-high security cylinders like Tesa T80 or Cisa Astral. Effective anti-bumping, registered key (cannot be copied without your authorisation), EN1303 grade 5 certification (resistance to manipulation for years). Reasonable cost and a significant real improvement over standard locks. Call us, text us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll reply in under 10 minutes during business hours.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a cylinder replacement take?
30-45 minutes per door for standard replacement. Full lock change: 60-90 minutes.
Cylinder or full lock?
If the lock is in good condition, just the cylinder is the most economical option. If it's old or low quality, a full replacement is a better investment.
What does a registered key mean?
Keys can only be copied at the official distributor with your authorisation, presenting your owner's card. It's impossible to copy without your consent. Recommended for all security cylinders.
Which cylinder do you recommend?
Tesa T80, Mottura Champions, or Cisa Astral in the mid-to-high range. For high security: Cisa Astral S, Mul-T-Lock Junior, or Tesa T80 Plus.

Yes in main coastal areas. Emergency opening day and night with a maximum wait of 2-3 hours during night or holiday hours.
