- ## 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 the keys inside, and the door has slammed shut in the wind. You're stuck outside with the intercom not responding. The insurance company does cover the opening, but their technician won't arrive until Monday at four in the afternoon, not now. This is what happens to us most often: urgent openings at inconvenient times when the insurance company can't help.
- How long does an emergency locksmith take to arrive?
- In coastal areas of the Costa Blanca, during daytime hours, 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 damaging 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), a 10-year warranty, and European EN1303 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 make custom shower screens?
- Measured during a visit, manufactured in our own workshop, and assembled in one morning. Fixed, sliding, and folding models in 6 or 8mm tempered glass with aluminium profiles.
