The key turns but the door will not give, the cylinder has stopped halfway, or you have left your keys inside the house and the gate of the plot has closed behind you. In a municipality as sprawling as Mijas these things get more complicated because of the distance between one area and another. Message us on WhatsApp with your location and our locksmiths will tell you how we can help, at any hour and on public holidays too.

Mijas is not a single town but several different worlds. Up in the mountains is Mijas Pueblo, with its white streets, its slopes and its old houses around the Plaza de la Virgen de la Peña. Further down, along the coast, come huge urbanisations such as Calahonda, Riviera del Sol, Miraflores and El Faro, together with Cerros del Águila. And inland there are rural districts such as Valtocado and Osunillas, with farms and country houses. The districts of La Cala and Las Lagunas have their own page on our website.

Our locksmiths know this variety of homes: from village houses with wooden doors to villas with gates, golf-course townhouses and apartments in complexes with a pool. We look after people who live here all year round as well as foreign residents and visitors. Tell us the urbanisation, the number of the house and how to get in, and we will carry on from there.

Common locksmith emergencies in Mijas

White houses and old doors in Mijas Pueblo

On the slopes and in the alleys of the village there are houses with wooden doors, wrought-iron knockers and old locks that cannot be forced just any way. We open with patience and fine tools to preserve the door leaf, and when the mechanism has to be replaced we look for a model that respects the façade and improves security.

Villas and gated plots in Riviera del Sol, Miraflores and Calahonda

The urbanisations on the coast combine villas, townhouses and apartments with gardens, and almost every home has a fence, a gate and several outside doors. Garden bolts and cylinders exposed to the sea air rust. We check all of the access points of the house, not just the front door.

Farms and country houses in Valtocado and Osunillas

Isolated homes inland are often left empty for long periods or far from the neighbours. A farm gate without a good lock is an invitation. We fit solid locks, change cylinders after a break-in or a sale and leave the house properly secured before you leave.

Golf urbanisations and second homes

In Cerros del Águila, El Faro and the golf areas of Miraflores there are homes that are occupied only for part of the year. After months without use, locks seize up and keys stop turning. We lubricate or replace them and give you new keys, which are also useful when you change tenants.

Frequently asked questions about locksmiths in Mijas

Do you get to Mijas Pueblo even though the streets are narrow and steep?

Yes. We know the village and how to get into it. Tell us the street and a landmark, such as the Plaza de la Virgen de la Peña or the viewpoint, and our locksmiths will prepare the job with the right tools for those old doors.

I live in Riviera del Sol and the gate of my plot has jammed. Can you repair it?

Yes. We check gate locks, garden bolts and outside doors, and if necessary we replace the mechanism with one that stands up better to the damp. Tell us what type of lock you have and, if you can, send us a photo on WhatsApp.

Do you cover Valtocado and Osunillas, or only the coast?

We cover the whole municipality: the coast, the village and the rural areas of Valtocado and Osunillas. In the countryside it helps a lot if you send us your location from your phone on WhatsApp, so that we do not get lost on tracks that do not show up well on maps.

I have a holiday home in Calahonda and have not been for months. The key will not turn. What do I do?

Do not force the key: it could break inside. Message us and we will check the cylinder. Usually it is enough to clean and lubricate it, and if it is damaged we replace it and give you new keys, which you can leave with someone you trust.

Do you also work in La Cala de Mijas and Las Lagunas?

Yes, the whole municipality. Those areas have their own page on this website, but the service is the same throughout Mijas and in the neighbouring towns of Fuengirola, Benalmádena and Marbella. Tell us your urbanisation in your message.

I am in Mijas. How do I ask for a locksmith?

Tap the WhatsApp button on this page and add where you are: village, Calahonda, Miraflores or whichever urbanisation it is, together with a short description of the fault. Our locksmiths receive it and reply in the same chat.
