Frequently asked questions

Do you also provide door opening services outside the borders of Riga?

-
Is it possible to open the door if the key is broken and left in the lock?
If you have a broken key left in the lock, call us and we will get the key piece out if possible. The broken key can be successfully removed in 99% of cases. However, if the broken key cannot be removed, the specialist will open the lock one way or the other and replace the old lock with a new one.
-
How long time does it takes for you in order to open the door if the key is lost?
If the key is lost and you are the legal owner or tenant of an apartment, room, garage, car or private house, then the door can be opened from 1 minute to 1 hour. It all depends on the complexity of the lock.
-
In what cases is it impossible to open the door without drilling the old lock?
There are also cases when the lock cannot be picked. This is mainly due to the fact that the lock is already too old and as a result has either collapsed, broken or jammed inside. Even jammed locks can be opened. Of course, in such cases, the knowledge gained over many years is applied, so that even such locks can be opened with various manipulations without damaging the door.
-
What is the price of opening the door?
The cost of opening a door depends on the location, the complexity of the lock and how many locks need to be picked. To find out the exact price of opening your door, call us without hesitation and we will name the price during the call understanding the specific situation.
-
Does the door get damaged when opened?
When opening the door lock, the door itself is not damaged, because the work takes place mainly around the lock or cylinder.
