- ## You've left your keys inside. Now what?
- The typical Saturday night call from Cabo Roig. You've been out for dinner, left your bag with the keys inside and the door slammed shut on its own. You're outside, the entry phone isn't answering. The insurance company does cover opening the door, but their technician will come at four on Monday afternoon, not now. That's what happens to us most: urgent openings at inconvenient times when the insurance company can't make it.
- How long does an emergency locksmith take to arrive?
- In coastal areas of the Costa Blanca, during the day, 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 might not be possible and the solution is to replace the entire 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 it up the same day and replace the definitive glass within 48-72 hours. For custom-measured tempered safety 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.
