Locked out in Ghent? Here is what to do first

If you are standing outside right now, these quick checks can save time:

  • Check if a spare key is with a neighbour, family, or a trusted friend
  • See if there is a safe alternative entry, for example a back door or garage
  • Do not force the lock with tools or a bank card, it often creates extra damage
  • If your keys are lost or stolen, consider replacing the cylinder straight away

Need help now, call us and we will confirm the best approach and give a clear price indication before we come out.

Our English speaking locksmith services in Ghent

Emergency door opening

We open doors as carefully as possible, aiming for damage-free entry whenever the lock allows it. This includes apartment doors, house doors, and many security door setups.

If you are in a high stress situation, see the Dutch emergency page too: {buitengesloten in Gent}.

Broken key in the lock

A broken key often means the cylinder was already stiff or worn. We remove the broken piece safely, then test the cylinder. If it is unreliable, we replace it on the spot so you can lock safely again.

Lock repair and lock replacement

If your lock is jammed, spinning, or no longer secure, we can repair it where sensible, or replace it with a stronger option.

Want a proactive security upgrade, multipoint locks, or SKG security cylinders, go to {slot vervangen in Gent}.
