Emergency Lock Opening in Warsaw
If your key is lost, broken in the cylinder, left inside, or the lock has stopped working, you can call an emergency locksmith in Warsaw. The specialist arrives at the address, verifies access rights, and selects the best approach based on your door type and the cause of the blockage.
We open apartments, private homes, offices, shops and other premises. Before starting, the locksmith inspects the lock, fittings and door leaf, then agrees on the price and procedure. If access can be restored without damaging the door or frame, we choose that option.

Emergency lock opening service 24/7
Calls are accepted around the clock throughout Warsaw. An emergency visit is needed when someone cannot get into their home, rental apartment, office or commercial premises.
When calling, just give your address and briefly describe the situation. The locksmith will ask if you have the key, whether it turns, if the door is locked with bolts, and whether a second lock is installed. This information helps to assess the difficulty and give an estimated price.
When do you need emergency lock opening
Help is needed in various situations:
Lost keys
keys are lost or stolen;
Slammed door
door slammed shut and the keys are inside;
Broken key
key broke inside the cylinder;
Spinning cylinder
cylinder spins freely without engaging the mechanism;
Jammed bolts
bolts do not retract into the body;
Wear or break-in

If there is a risk that someone else has a copy of your key, the cylinder or the entire mechanism can be replaced immediately after opening.
Door opening without a key
Opening a door without a key does not always require drilling or lock replacement. First, the locksmith determines the type of mechanism, the position of the bolts, the condition of the cylinder and any additional protection.
If the door simply slammed shut and the lock itself is working, access can often be restored carefully. Working with a burglar-resistant door, multi-point locking system or damaged mechanism takes more time. If part replacement is unavoidable, the locksmith explains this in advance.
Which locks we open
We work with all major types of door mechanisms:
- cylinder and lever locks;
- mortise and surface-mounted locks;
- multi-point and burglar-resistant locks;
- office and mailbox locks;
- garage and technical locks.

How much does lock opening cost in Warsaw
The price starts from 185 PLN for simple cases and depends on the door design, the condition of the mechanism and the time of the call. A slammed door is usually easier to open than a locked door with several turns or a door damaged after self-help attempts.
The cost is affected by:
- type of lock and cylinder;
- presence of an anti-burglary plate or second mechanism;
- position of the key and bolts;
- signs of drilling, prying or disassembly;
- urgency and time of the call;
- need for repair or replacement of parts.
An approximate price is given over the phone. After inspection, the locksmith confirms the price before starting work. A new cylinder, lock repair and door adjustment are quoted separately.
When calling, give your district, street and house number. For a closed courtyard, office building or residential complex, also provide the entrance, building number, gate code or landmark.
What can be done after opening the door
After restoring access, the locksmith checks the cylinder, lock body, handle, bolts and strike plate. If the mechanism is working and operates smoothly, it can continue to be used.
After losing keys, the cylinder is usually replaced while keeping the main lock body. In case of wear, repeated blockages or damage after a break-in, repair or installation of a new lock may be required. For a house, office or multiple rooms, a Master Key system can be set up.
