A border town next to Aachen
Vaals is the easternmost municipality of South Limburg and borders Aachen directly. Many RWTH Aachen students live in Vaals, in student houses, flats and rooms. Many families live in the streets around the centre and in neighbourhoods such as Raren and Wolfhaag. The Vaalserberg, with the Three-Country Point where the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany meet, draws many tourists every year.
Students often call us for a room door that has shut or a key that has snapped. Opening a room door is usually quick, from €99. If you live in a student house, we tell you honestly when the landlord needs to approve a new cylinder.
Tourists at the Three-Country Point
On busy days the car parks at the Three-Country Point and the labyrinth hold hundreds of cars. A car key left on the seat or in the boot is a common call. We open the car without damage, from €99, with German or Belgian plates too.
German and Dutch locks
Many houses in Vaals have German doors and locks. For most cylinders that makes no difference: they share the same Euro profile. We measure the door and fit an SKG** cylinder (from €89) or SKG*** cylinder (from €129). Do you live just across the border in Aachen? You can call us too; see locksmith Aachen-Laurensberg.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about a locksmith in Vaals
Do you also come to student rooms in Vaals?
Yes. Opening a room door costs from €99 plus a €40 call-out fee. We ask for proof that you live there.
Do you also come to the Three-Country Point?
Yes, to the car parks on the Vaalserberg. Tell us where the car is when you call.
How long will I wait for a locksmith in Vaals?
Expect about 25 to 35 minutes in Vaals. Vaals is 13.3 km from Heerlen as the crow flies. On the phone we give you an honest estimate.
Do I need to prove that I live there?
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.
Will my door be damaged?
A door that has simply slammed shut is almost always opened without damage. If it is double-locked and the cylinder has to come out, we tell you first and fit a new one straight away.
Keys locked in your car in Vaals?
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.
Do you come straight after a burglary?
Call the police first, then us. We make the house lockable again the same night with a new cylinder or an emergency fix.
What does SKG*** on a cylinder mean?
Three stars means the cylinder resists an attack for at least five minutes and has anti-snap (core-pulling) protection. It also meets the Dutch Police Secure Housing standard.
