Verified handyman network in Barcelona

We replace glass in Molins de Rei. We visit the property, assess the job, give you a clear price, and get started. Replacing just the cylinder is a 30-45 minute operation per door. The mechanical lock remains, and we only replace 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. Changing the entire lock costs more and is justified when the lock is old or of low quality, and we want to take advantage of the change to upgrade the security level. This operation takes 60-90 minutes per door.

How we work

Call us, write to us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll respond within 10 minutes during business hours. We start with a measurement visit. We measure the existing opening with millimetric precision, identify the type of glass to be replaced (tempered, laminated, Climalit), and verify the fixing system to the frame (silicone, PVC profile, neoprene gasket) so that the replacement is identical to the original. We provide a fixed quote during the same visit.

When to call for glass replacement in Molins de Rei

When a client calls us for an emergency (keys left inside, lost key, locked lock), we first assess if non-destructive opening is possible. Most standard locks can be opened with professional techniques (picking, impressioning, pin manipulation) in 15-30 minutes without damaging the cylinder. This saves the client the cost of replacing the entire cylinder. 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, which is more expensive but leaves the door as new with a new, reinforced security cylinder. The entire Climalit pane must be replaced because the air chamber loses its insulating function when contaminated with moisture. Only one pane cannot be repaired. Non-destructive opening when possible, complete lock or cylinder replacement, installation of high-security anti-bumping cylinders.

Materials and brands

If the lock is in good condition, only the cylinder is the most economical. If it's old or of low quality, a complete change is a better investment. For a home on the Costa Blanca with medium risk (a development with neighbours, not isolated), we recommend a medium-to-high quality anti-bumping cylinder. Brands like Tesa T80, Mottura Champions, or Cisa Astral are our best sellers. These cylinders have security pins that prevent the bumping technique – that sharp blow with a special key that opens any standard cylinder in less than 60 seconds. They come with a registered security key, which cannot be copied without authorisation at any hardware store. And they have EN1303 European certification, guaranteeing resistance to manipulation for years. Their cost is reasonable, and the real security improvement is immense. 30 days on labour. Premium cylinders with official manufacturer's warranty up to 10 years.

Frequently asked questions

## You've left 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 in the street, the intercom isn't responding. The insurance company does cover the opening, but their technician will come at four in the afternoon on Monday, not now. This is what happens to us 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 the Costa Blanca, during the day, 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 an accessible area, we provisionally cover with a board 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 aluminum profiles.
