Replacing a cylinder without a key usually costs between €90 and €160, depending on the type of lock, accessibility and whether the cylinder can be opened without damage or needs to be drilled out. A standard cylinder is often cheaper than a certified security cylinder. Material costs for a new cylinder may be charged separately.
On average, replacing a cylinder without a key takes about 45 to 90 minutes. If the lock is stuck, has additional security features or first needs to be opened carefully, the job may take longer.
The professional first checks the type of lock and whether the door can be opened without damage. The old cylinder is then removed, for example by professionally loosening it or drilling it out if necessary. A suitable new cylinder is then installed and tested to make sure the door opens, closes and locks smoothly and securely.
Zoofy carefully selects professionals based on skill and reliability. You can view reviews from previous customers and see who will carry out the job. This helps you arrange a professional who suits the task and gives you confidence before the work starts.
After the job, the professional remains legally responsible for the work carried out. If you have chosen Zoofy’s optional paid warranty package, this gives extra certainty on top of that legal responsibility. For questions about the lock, maintenance or aftercare, you can contact Zoofy after the job.
Zoofy does its best to find a suitable professional to replace a cylinder without a key. Availability depends on your location, timing and the specific condition of the lock. If no professional can be found, this will be clearly communicated to you.
You pay only through Zoofy and never directly to the professional in cash or by card. After the job is finished, you can pay easily using a QR code. Payment by email invoice is also possible.
