What is keeping you outside?
For a door opening in Geneva or Vaud, first tell us whether the door has simply slammed shut, is locked with a key, or has a damaged mechanism. Share your town and the type of lock when you call.
Slammed door
The door closed with your keys inside. Tell us if a key is still in the cylinder. We prioritise a non-destructive method where the locking mechanism allows it.
Door locked with a key
Lost keys, forgotten keys or a multipoint lock: the approach depends on the cylinder and door. The work required is explained before you agree.
Broken key or jammed lock
A key fragment is stuck or the key will not turn. Avoid forcing it. An assessment determines whether extraction, adjustment or replacement is needed.
The right approach for your door.
We prioritise non-destructive entry where the mechanism permits. Specialist latch-opening or lock-picking techniques may suit some doors; no single method works for every lock.
A locked door, security cylinder or damaged mechanism may require work on the cylinder and its replacement. We explain the proposed solution and its cost before starting.
Protecting your door comes first
Non-destructive opening is prioritised according to the condition and type of lock. Any necessary replacement is explained and agreed with you.
For an apartment or residential building, mention any multipoint locking system, reinforced door or additional lock. Have identification and evidence of your right to access the property ready.
