Old buildings, shared flats and apartment blocks
Aachen is a student city: thousands of students at RWTH and the FH live in shared flats, halls of residence and old apartments, especially in the Pontviertel, the Frankenberger Viertel and around the centre. Typical are apartment buildings with a shared front door and a separate flat door. If the flat door shuts with the keys inside, it is usually quickly solved: a door that has only slammed shut we almost always open without damage, from €99.
In shared flats tenants change often. Who knows how many keys are still around? A new cylinder when you move in makes sense; in a rented flat, agree this with your landlord first.
Burtscheid and the 19th-century quarters
In Burtscheid, the Frankenberger Viertel and around the Hangeweiher there are many late-19th-century houses with heavy, often original front doors. These doors are beautiful, but the locks are sometimes decades old. A modern anti-snap cylinder can usually be fitted into the existing lock without changing the character of the door. SKG*** cylinder from €129.
Car opening in Aachen
Around the cathedral, in the city-centre multi-storey car parks, at the Tivoli stadium and at events in the Soers, a car key occasionally ends up locked inside. We open the car without damage, from €99. Tell us on the phone which car park the car is in; reception in multi-storey car parks is sometimes poor.
Shops and practices
For shops, practices and offices in Aachen we replace cylinders after a key is lost, set up simple master key plans and come at night in an emergency. Business customers can pay on invoice. Read more under business.
After a break-in
Call the police on 110 first. Then we secure your home the same night: a new cylinder, a repaired strike plate or a temporary closure. You receive an invoice with photos for your insurer.
Every Aachen district
We cover all of Aachen, including Laurensberg, Richterich, Haaren, Eilendorf, Brand and Kornelimünster/Walheim. Richterich and Laurensberg are quickest to reach from Heerlen; Brand and Kornelimünster take longer.

How quickly can you be in central Aachen?
Usually within 30 to 40 minutes. At night it is often quicker; in rush hour it can take longer.
Do you also open rooms in halls of residence?
Yes, as long as it is a normal cylinder or lever lock door. With electronic systems in halls, usually only the building management can help; we tell you that beforehand.
What does door opening cost in Aachen?
From €99 plus a €40 call-out fee. Evenings, nights and weekends carry a surcharge, which you hear in advance.
How quickly can a locksmith get to Aachen?
Expect about 30 to 40 minutes in Aachen. Aachen is 14.3 km from Heerlen as the crow flies. On the phone we give you an honest estimate.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, we give a 1-year guarantee on our work. Locks and cylinders also carry the manufacturer's warranty.
My key broke off in the lock. What now?
Yes. We pull the piece out with a thin extraction hook. If the cylinder is damaged, we fit a new one on the spot.

Can you open the door without damage?
Usually, yes. Only with a double-locked door and a heavy security cylinder may the cylinder need replacing. We discuss that with you first.
