About this service

Replace the cylinder or the whole lock?

The cylinder is the part the key goes into. Replacing it is the quickest way to stop old keys from working when they have been lost or stolen, or when you do not know who else has a copy.

When the problem is in the internal mechanism — the lock sticks, the bolt does not come out or the lock has been forced — the whole lock may need replacing. Before doing so, we check which lock the door has and which replacement is compatible.

If you want to improve the security of your door, you can also ask about fitting a security cylinder or a multi-point security lock. We advise you based on the door and how you use it.

Common reasons to replace a cylinder

  • Your keys have been lost or stolen.
  • You are moving into a home or business and do not know how many copies exist.
  • The key is hard to insert or the cylinder turns poorly.
  • The lock has been forced or damaged in a break-in attempt.
  • You want to improve the security of your front door.
  • You have an empty home or business and want to protect it better.

Anti-squatter locks

Anti-squatter lock installation in Valencia

Anti-squatter locks are security locks designed to reinforce the protection of a home or business, especially when the property is empty for periods of time: a second home, a flat for sale or rent, or closed business premises.

Anti-squatter lock installation in Valencia is adapted to each door. Before installing, we check the door and the existing lock to recommend the right anti-squatter security lock or cylinder, and when we finish we check that the door opens and closes properly.

It is a preventive measure to improve the security of your home or business. If the property is already occupied, a lock does not replace the corresponding legal procedures.

When an anti-squatter security lock makes sense

  • Empty homes, second homes or flats for sale or rent.
  • Business premises that are temporarily closed.
  • Doors with old locks or locks that are easy to tamper with.
  • After a change of tenants or a renovation.

Your questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about this service.

Is it better to replace the cylinder or the whole lock?

It depends on the condition of the lock. If the mechanism works well and you only want to stop the old keys from working, replacing the cylinder is usually enough. If the lock is damaged or worn, replacing it is assessed.

What is a security cylinder?

It is a cylinder designed to offer more resistance than a basic one. There are different security levels; we advise you on the available options for your door and what you need to protect.

Do you install anti-squatter locks in Valencia?

Yes. We install anti-squatter security locks in homes and business premises in Valencia and the surrounding area. We advise you on the right model for your door and how the property is used.

Should I replace the cylinder if my keys are stolen?

It is recommended, especially if the keys could be linked to your address. Once the cylinder is replaced, the old keys no longer open the door.

Can you advise me before replacing the lock?

Yes. Tell us about the door by phone or WhatsApp and, if you can, send a photo of the lock. That way we can advise you before travelling.
