24-hour Door Opening in Barcelona
Locked out of your home, office or shop? We open the door, always looking for the least invasive solution for your lock.
When do you need a door opening?
It can happen because you've lost your keys, a key has snapped inside the cylinder, the cylinder is jammed, or you've accidentally locked yourself out with the keys inside. These things never happen at a convenient time, which is why our door opening service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including public holidays.
How we carry out the opening
Before we touch anything, we'll ask you over the phone what type of lock you have and how the problem happened, so we bring the right tools. Whenever possible, we open the door without damaging the lock or the door itself, using non-destructive techniques suited to each type of cylinder. If the mechanism is badly worn or has already been forced, we'll explain your options before doing anything: repair it, replace the cylinder, or fit a whole new lock. We never start work without you knowing what we're going to do.
Okey's tips
- Keep a neighbour's or caretaker's phone number handy in case you need to wait.
- If the key has snapped inside the cylinder, don't try to pull it out with sharp objects — you could make the jam worse.
- Check whether a family member nearby has a spare key before you call us.
Brands we work with
We work with premium cylinders and locks from manufacturers such as Kaba, SAG, Tokoz, Keso and ABUS, which means we can always offer a guaranteed solution whenever a part needs replacing.
