- ## You've locked yourself out. Now what?
- The typical Saturday night call from Cabo Roig. You've gone out for dinner, left your bag with keys inside, and the door has slammed shut with the wind. You're locked out with the intercom getting no response. The insurance company does cover the opening, but their technician will only arrive at four on Monday afternoon, not now. This is what we get most often: urgent openings at inconvenient times when the insurance company isn't available.
- How long does an emergency locksmith take to arrive?
- In coastal areas of Costa Blanca, daytime emergencies take less than 90 minutes. For night or weekend emergencies, maximum 2-3 hours depending on the area and availability.
- Can the door be opened without breaking the lock?
- In most cases, yes, especially with standard cylinders. For high-security anti-bumping cylinders, non-destructive entry may not be possible, and the solution is to replace the complete cylinder.
- Which anti-bumping cylinder do you recommend?
- We work with recognised brands: Tesa T80, Mottura Champions, Cisa Astral. Cylinders with registered keys (cannot be copied without authorisation), 10-year warranty, and EN1303 European certification.
- Do you cover urgent broken glass replacement?
- In an accessible area, we provisionally board up the same day and replace the definitive glass within 48-72 hours. For custom-measured tempered security glass, the lead time is 3-5 days.
- Do you make custom shower screens?
- Measured during a visit, manufactured in our own workshop, and installed in one morning. Fixed, sliding, and folding models in 6 or 8mm tempered glass with aluminium profiles.
