Locksmith Zurich - Call now !

If you find yourself locked out of your apartment, the first step should be to see if you have a spare key. It could be that you have given someone, such as a family member, partner, or neighbor, a copy of your key. If not, you may need to call a locksmith, like Locksmith Zurich, for assistance in unlocking the door.

If the door is only shut and not locked, you can attempt to open it using a thin card or a flathead screwdriver. If these methods are unsuccessful, it is recommended to contact a locksmith to open the door without causing any damage to the fixture.

If a key has snapped off inside a lock, do not try to take it out by yourself as this could damage the lock. It is wiser to hire a professional locksmith who can both get rid of the broken key and fix or change the lock.

If the key is stuck in the lock and you're unable to turn it, it is best to contact a licensed locksmith. Trying to open the door yourself could result in further damage, causing unnecessary and costly repairs being required.

Opening a door can potentially cause damage, especially if the wrong tools are utilized or the lock itself has already been damaged. While this is a possibility, a qualified locksmith should almost always be able to open the door without resulting in harm. That being said, if we feel that the process of opening the door may cause minor damage to the door, we will let you know on-site.

Generally, when it comes to changing a lock, one can usually expect to pay between 150 and 400 CHF depending on the kind of lock and the amount of work necessary.

If you're looking for a top-notch locksmith in Zurich, you can do a web search for "locksmiths in Zurich". Ensure that the professional you decide to work with has a current license and an understandable rate schedule to avoid any surprises later on.

If you can't locate your key, make sure to look through your belongings first. Check the pockets of your clothing, your house, your vehicle, and any other places you may have misplaced the key. Call your last location (restaurant, bar, friends) and additionally, you can contact the Lost and Found Office of the City of Zurich or inquire at the Zurich Police.
