- ## You've locked your keys inside. Now what?
- The typical Saturday night call from Cabo Roig. You've gone out for dinner, left your bag with the keys inside, and the door has slammed shut in the wind. You're on the street with the intercom unresponsive. The insurance company does cover opening, but their technician will arrive at four in the afternoon on Monday, not now. This is what we most frequently encounter: urgent openings at inconvenient times when the insurance company cannot attend.
- How long does an emergency locksmith take to arrive?
- In coastal areas of the Costa Blanca, during daytime, less than 90 minutes. For night or weekend emergencies, a maximum of 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 opening may 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), a 10-year warranty, and EN1303 European certification.
- Do you cover urgent broken glass replacement?
- In accessible areas, we provisionally cover with boarding on 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 custom-make shower screens?
- Measured on-site, manufactured in our own workshop, and installed in one morning. Fixed, sliding, and folding models in 6 or 8mm tempered glass with aluminium profiles.
