Fuengirola is one of the liveliest towns on the Costa del Sol: thousands of apartments facing the sea, communities of owners with controlled-access entrance halls and a constant coming and going of residents and tourists all year round. In a town this compact and this busy, being locked out or discovering that your lock has stopped working is more common than it seems, and it almost always happens at the worst possible moment.

Our locksmiths work throughout the municipality: from the seafront promenade of Los Boliches to the urbanisations of Torreblanca and the district of Carvajal, which almost touches Benalmádena, taking in Los Pacos, the centre, the area around the marina and the Sohail Castle zone, next to the mouth of the river. We handle emergencies by day, by night, at weekends and on public holidays, and you can message us on WhatsApp at any hour.

Whether you live here all year round, are on holiday in a rented apartment or have a shop in the middle of the bustle of the Feria del Rosario, tell us what has happened and where you are. Our locksmiths will tell you how we can help with your door, your cylinder or your shutter.

Common locksmith emergencies in Fuengirola

Keys left behind in holiday apartments

In Fuengirola there are thousands of tourist flats and seasonal lets, above all in Los Boliches and around the seafront promenade. It is very common for a guest to go down to the beach, for the door to slam shut and the keys to be left inside, or for a key box to stop working. We open the door using techniques that avoid damaging the lock whenever possible, so that you can carry on enjoying your holiday.

Locks worn down by damp and salt air

Being close to the sea means that cylinders and locks on the seafront, such as those along the promenade or around the marina, rust and stiffen over the years. With the easterly wind, the salt reaches the balcony and terrace doors too. If the key is getting harder and harder to turn, it is worth checking or changing the cylinder before it jams completely.

Entrance halls and doors in communities of owners

Many buildings in the centre and in Los Boliches have shared entrance halls, storage rooms and garages, and in Torreblanca and Carvajal there are plenty of urbanisations with shared access points and gates. We help communities of owners and property administrators with door openings, lock changes and new access keys when needed.

Changing the lock when you move in or after a break-in

If you have just bought or rented a home in Fuengirola, you do not know how many copies of the key are out there. Changing the cylinder is the simplest way to regain peace of mind. We also deal with emergencies after an attempted break-in to leave the door properly secured, and we help owners of second homes in Los Pacos or Torreblanca who have found the lock forced on their return.

Frequently asked questions about locksmiths in Fuengirola

I am on holiday in an apartment in Los Boliches and I have left my keys inside. What do I do?

Message us on WhatsApp with the address of the apartment and the building number. Our locksmiths will help you open the door and, if you prefer, you can let the owner or the agency know in the meantime. If the apartment has a key box or an electronic lock, mention it in your message.

Do you cover Los Boliches, Torreblanca and Carvajal?

Yes. We cover the whole municipality of Fuengirola: the centre, Los Boliches, Los Pacos, Torreblanca, Carvajal, El Boquetillo and Santa Amalia, as well as the bordering areas of Mijas and Benalmádena. Tell us your street or the name of the urbanisation on WhatsApp.

I live near the seafront promenade and my key turns worse and worse. Is it the salt air?

It most likely is. Damp and salt air rust the cylinder mechanism and the key starts to stick. It is best not to over-lubricate it or force it: our locksmiths check the cylinder and, if it is badly worn, suggest replacing it before it jams completely.

I have an apartment let to tourists in Fuengirola. Can you help me with the keys?

Yes. We look after owners and holiday-rental managers: door openings when a guest is locked out, cylinder changes between tenants and master-key systems for several apartments in the same building.

My community in Torreblanca or Carvajal has a shared entrance hall and garage. Do you change the locks?

Yes. We work on entrance halls, storage rooms, garages, gates and shared access doors, and we can coordinate with the property administrator to hand the new keys to the neighbours.

Can you open the door without breaking the lock?

In most cases, yes. Our locksmiths use non-destructive opening techniques. Only if the lock is high-security or faulty may the cylinder need replacing, and we always explain this before doing it.
