When a customer calls us for an emergency (keys left inside, lost key, lock jammed), we first assess if non-destructive opening is possible. Most standard locks can be opened using professional techniques (lock picking, impressioning, bolt manipulation) in 15-30 minutes without damaging the cylinder. This saves the customer the cost of replacing the entire lock. For high-end anti-bumping cylinders, non-destructive opening may not be possible, and the only solution is to drill the cylinder and replace it. This is more expensive but leaves the door as new with a new, reinforced security cylinder.

The typical Saturday night call from Cabo Roig. You've gone out for dinner, left your bag with keys inside, and the door slammed shut in the wind. You're outside with the intercom unresponsive. Your insurance covers the opening but the company technician won't arrive until Monday afternoon, not now. These are the most common calls: emergency openings at inconvenient times when insurance won't cover you immediately. The locksmithing trade has a bad reputation, partly justified. Some operators charge absurd rates for emergency openings (400-600 euros for a simple opening), exploiting the urgency. We work with local locksmiths with clear pricing before the job, no nasty surprises on the bill. If the opening is complicated by an internal blockage or a special cylinder, we'll tell you before starting, and you decide. Non-destructive opening when possible, full lock or cylinder replacement, installation of high-security anti-bumping cylinders.

Non-destructive door opening: 80-140 euros during daytime, 140-240 euros during nighttime or holidays. Standard cylinder replacement with a high-security anti-bumping one: 90-160 euros installed. Full lock replacement: 180-340 euros depending on brand and model. Multipoint security lock for a villa: 380-650 euros installed. 30 days on labour. Premium cylinders with official manufacturer warranty up to 10 years. Full lock replacement or just the cylinder, depending on the case. Quality brand and a new set of keys.

The price for copies and duplicates in Sant Just Desvern typically ranges between 50 and 385 euros. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and work time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. For a property on the Costa Blanca with medium risk (residential area, not isolated), we recommend a mid-to-high range 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 blow with a special key that opens any standard cylinder in under 60 seconds. They come with a registered security key, which cannot be copied at any hardware store without authorisation. They also have European EN1303 certification, guaranteeing resistance to manipulation for years. Their cost is reasonable, and the real security improvement is enormous.
