A locksmith based in Heerlen itself

Many locksmiths at the top of search results use a national number and pass the job to whoever happens to be nearby. We work from Heerlen. That saves driving time, and on the phone you speak directly to the locksmith who comes out, not to a call centre.

In town we are usually on site within 15 to 25 minutes. At night it is often quicker because the roads are empty; in rush hour around the inner and outer ring roads it can take a little longer. When you call, we tell you roughly when we will arrive.

Town centre: flats above shops and shared entrances

Around the Pancratiusplein, the Saroleastraat, the Bongerd and the streets towards the Maankwartier, many people live above a shop or in a block of flats with a shared front door. If the door of your flat slams shut while the main entrance is also locked, we first open the main door (with the manager's permission or if you can show that you live there) and then your own front door.

Shopkeepers in the centre often call us for a different job: a key that snaps in the cylinder of the shop door just before opening time, or a shutter that no longer locks. We then try to have you open again before the first customer arrives. Read more about our business service.

Miners' houses and older homes

Heerlen grew big on coal mining. Districts such as Molenberg, Meezenbroek, Schandelen and Heerlerheide still have many houses from the first half of the last century and the post-war years. They often have wooden front doors with an old mortice lock and a cylinder that sticks far out of the escutcheon. A burglar can snap such a cylinder.

For those homes we usually recommend an SKG*** cylinder with anti-snap protection and a security rosette that shields the cylinder. The lock itself can often stay. An SKG*** cylinder costs from €129 including fitting; for an interior door or storage room an SKG** cylinder from €89 is enough.

Students, tenants and new residents

With the Open University, Zuyd University of Applied Sciences and a large number of rented homes, many people move house in Heerlen. After a move you do not know who still has a key. A new cylinder in the front and back door is then a small effort. In a rented home you agree the replacement with your landlord; we provide an invoice and you keep the old cylinder to hand back.

Do you rent a room with its own lock, and has the door shut with the key inside? You can call us for that too. Such a door is usually opened quickly and without damage.

After a break-in in Heerlen

After a break-in, call the police first. Then we come, at night too, to make the house lockable again: a new cylinder, a repaired strike plate or a temporary closure if the door is badly damaged. You receive an invoice with photos for the insurance. Read more under burglary repair.

From Heerlen to the rest of Parkstad

Because we are based in Heerlen, we are quick to reach the surrounding towns too: Hoensbroek to the north, Voerendaal to the south, Landgraaf and Kerkrade to the east and Brunssum towards the Brunssummerheide. Further afield we drive to the Heuvelland, the Maas valley and across the border into Belgium and Germany. Below you see every place by municipality.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about a locksmith in Heerlen

Do you have a shop or counter in Heerlen?

No. We are a mobile locksmith: we come to you with a van full of cylinders and tools, so we can do most work on the spot.

Can you also book an appointment instead of an emergency visit?

Yes. For lock replacement or home security we are happy to plan a time that suits you, including evenings or Saturdays.

Do you come to car parks in Heerlen town centre?

Yes, for car opening we also come to multi-storey car parks. Tell us which car park and which level, because phone reception there can be poor.

How quickly can a locksmith get to Heerlen?

On average we reach Heerlen within 15 to 25 minutes, depending on the time of day and where our locksmith is at that moment. When you call, we tell you roughly when we will arrive.

How much does it cost to open a door in Heerlen?

Heerlen has the same prices as everywhere else: door or car opening from €99, an SKG** cylinder from €89 and an SKG*** cylinder from €129. The call-out fee is €40.

Will a locksmith come to Heerlen at night?

Yes, even on a Sunday or in the middle of the night. Outside office hours a surcharge applies, which you hear in advance.

Why do you ask for ID?

Yes. Before we open a door we ask for ID or other proof that you live there. If it is inside, you show it right after we open the door.

How do I pay the locksmith?

Straight after the job, by card or in cash; with a card payment you also get an invoice. Businesses can pay by invoice within fourteen days.

Keys locked in your car in Heerlen?

Call us with the make and where the car is parked. We open it with an air wedge and long-reach tool, without scratches. From €99.

Which cylinder is best for my front door?

For a front or back door we recommend an SKG*** cylinder with anti-snap protection, from €129. For interior doors SKG** is often enough.

Do you come straight after a burglary?

Yes, at night too. We replace the damaged cylinder or provide a temporary closure so you are secure again.
