Updated on 6 October 2026Locked out, a broken key in the lock or just moved into a new apartment? We can help, in English. Press the call button: you reach us directly, or we call you back within 15 minutes. You hear straight away what we will do and what it costs.
We have worked in Eindhoven and the surrounding towns for more than ten years. Our van carries cylinders, locks and tools, so most jobs are done in one visit. In an emergency our technician is usually with you within half an hour, from Strijp-S to Woensel.
Many of the people we help work at High Tech Campus, study or do research at TU/e, or work for technology companies such as ASML in Veldhoven. Most rent an apartment or a student room and have never needed a Dutch locksmith before.
We explain everything in plain English: what kind of lock you have, how it opens and what your options are. You do not need to speak Dutch to get a fair price and a clear answer.
We open doors, usually without damage or drilling. We replace locks and cylinders, remove broken keys, make doors lockable again after a burglary and fit SKG-approved cylinders. Our advice follows the Dutch Police Label for Safe Housing and is free with every job.
We also cut spare keys in our van, from € 4.50 for a standard key. Car keys and safes are not something we work on; for those a car key specialist or safe specialist is the better choice.

Opening a door costs from € 85 on weekdays from 08.00 until 18.00, from € 125 in the evening and on Saturdays, and from € 155 at night, on Sundays and on public holidays. There is no call-out fee in Eindhoven or the five nearby towns.
You pay by debit card when the work is done and always receive an invoice with VAT. Dutch consumer organisations warn about locksmiths who will not name a price or demand cash. We name our price before we start.
In a rental home the locks usually belong to the landlord or the housing corporation. Check your rental contract before replacing a cylinder. Often it is allowed if you put the original back when you leave, so we keep the old one aside for you.
Being locked out is usually at the tenant's own expense. Housing corporations sometimes have their own emergency service for lock problems, so it can be worth checking that first.
