From a lockout to a lock change – here is what we arrange on site:
Who pays for the callout in Innenstadt?
A rough guide to who usually covers the cost in Frankfurt and the surrounding area. What matters is the cause of the callout, not who calls first.
Locked yourself out
If you locked yourself out or lost the key, the cause sits with you. In that case the tenant usually pays for the door opening.
Lock defective
If the lock fails through normal wear or a technical fault, that falls under the duty to maintain the property. Those costs are usually the landlord’s.
This is general information, not legal advice. Have a lawyer check your specific case if in doubt, and keep the invoice.
Building stock in Innenstadt

Heritage-protected doors in Innenstadt
If a door is heritage-listed or historically valuable, non-destructive opening comes first, so the original substance and fittings stay intact. If something does have to be replaced, the solution should be reversible and removable later without lasting damage. The partner firm talks the approach through with you before acting.
What a door opening in Innenstadt costs
We are a referral service: the vetted partner firm sets the price and quotes it to you up front, before any work starts. The referral itself is free. No honest firm gives a flat rate without seeing the door and lock, but these points explain why the amounts vary.
What influences the amount
- Door state: simply latched (pulled shut) is usually quick, double-locked takes more effort.
- Lock type: old mortise lock, modern security cylinder or a multipoint locking system.
- Timing: nights, weekends and public holidays may carry a surcharge.
- Parts: added when a cylinder or lock has to be replaced.
Warning signs (scams)
- A very low quote on the phone, then a much bigger bill once on site.
- A merely latched door is drilled open straight away instead of opened non-destructively.
- Work begins without any price being stated beforehand.
- Cash only, no receipt, no proper invoice.
