Message us on WhatsAppThe door has slammed shut with your keys inside, the key has snapped in the lock or the cylinder will no longer turn: in Torremolinos it happens at all hours, especially when you come back from dinner along the seafront promenade and your apartment is on the other side of the door. If something like this happens to you, message us on WhatsApp and tell us where you are. Our locksmiths work by day, by night, at weekends and on public holidays.
Torremolinos is a town of apartments and of people coming and going. Between La Carihuela, a former fishing quarter, and El Bajondillo, next to the Casa de los Navajas, you will find lifelong residents, foreign residents who stay for long periods and visitors who rent for a few days. To the east, the towers of Playamar and, to the west, the urbanisations of Montemar add hundreds of homes with entrance halls, lifts and shared storage rooms, while quieter neighbourhoods such as La Colina and El Pinillo grow inland.
Our locksmiths know this mix and know what kind of lock you are likely to find in each place. We look after foreign residents and visitors with the same care as the neighbours who have always lived here. Tell us the street or the name of the building, what has happened and where you are writing from, and we will carry on the conversation on WhatsApp.
In La Carihuela, El Bajondillo and around Playamar there is an enormous number of homes that change occupant every week. Keys get left inside, lost on the beach or not handed back at check-out. We open the door without damaging it whenever possible, and for owners and managers we change the cylinder between stays so that nobody keeps an old set.
The buildings facing the sea in Montemar, La Carihuela and Los Álamos get a salty breeze all year round. Brass darkens, mechanisms seize up and the key becomes harder and harder to turn. We check the cylinder and the hardware before they jam completely and, if necessary, fit parts that stand up better to the damp.
Playamar, Montemar and the blocks of La Colina and El Pinillo group many homes around a few entrance halls. When the lock on a main door, a storage room or a meter room fails, the whole staircase is affected. We work with community presidents and property administrators to repair and replace cylinders and to hand over new keys to each neighbour.
Homes that stand empty for part of the year or change hands often are the ones that cause the most worry. After an attempted break-in, or after buying a flat in Torremolinos, changing the cylinder for a security model is the simplest way to get your peace of mind back. We only recommend what your door actually needs.
We open the doors of apartments, flats, villas and shops in La Carihuela, El Bajondillo, Playamar, Montemar and the rest of Torremolinos when you are locked out, the key breaks or the lock jams. We always start with non-destructive opening.
We replace cylinders and locks with security models, with new keys and copies. It is the sensible thing to do when you buy or rent a home in Torremolinos, at the end of a holiday stay or after losing a set of keys.
In Torremolinos, from Los Álamos to Montemar and from La Colina to El Pinillo, we handle locksmith emergencies 24 hours a day, every day. Message us on WhatsApp and tell us what has happened.
Yes. We work at any hour, including the early morning, when the bars on the seafront promenade close and someone discovers that the keys have been left inside the apartment. Message us on WhatsApp with the street or the name of the building and we will start helping you.
Yes. You can message us yourself, even from another country, with the address and the flat number. Our locksmiths open the door once you confirm who the guest is and, afterwards, if you wish, we change the cylinder before the next booking.
Yes. We cover the whole municipality: La Carihuela, El Bajondillo, Playamar, Los Álamos, Montemar, La Colina and El Pinillo, as well as the town centre and the areas bordering Benalmádena, Arroyo de la Miel and Málaga.
In most cases, yes, using non-destructive opening techniques. If the cylinder is badly damaged by the salt air and does not respond, it may need to be replaced. We always explain this before doing it and suggest a new part that stands up better to the conditions.
Yes. It is common in seafront homes that stand empty for part of the year: the salt air stiffens the cylinder and the key stops turning at the first attempt. Do not force it. Message us with the address and a photo of the lock, and our locksmiths will check it, lubricate it or replace it before you return.
