Amper unlocking service has existed for several decades. The grandfather of today’s owner Mario Pichelmaier already began working in the locksmith trade. Johann Pichelmaier even invented a special tool for non-destructive door openings, which was used for many years by locksmith experts and was even patented.
Johann’s son and Mario’s father Herbert later followed in his footsteps and also helped people in emergencies with non-destructive door openings and professional lock replacements. Later, he taught his son Mario everything he needed to know to successfully run the Amper unlocking service. Herbert still helps out when there are peak workloads and Mario and his team can no longer keep up.

We receive many assignments from various police departments in the greater Munich area when a non-destructive door opening is required. We also work with the criminal police (Kripo) and tax investigation authorities, where door openings are also frequently needed.
Other clients include district offices, veterinary offices, tax authorities, courts, city administrations, chambers, property management companies, cooperatives, and many more. The government of Upper Bavaria and customs authorities in Upper Bavaria also regularly call us to carry out professional door openings.
More protection against burglars in Munich-Berg am Laim

Based on this analysis, we install high-quality security systems and locking systems so you can sleep more peacefully again.
When we recommend hardware, locking systems, or window security solutions, we only use products from well-known manufacturers. These include IKON, BKS, ASSA ABLOY, BASI, DOM security technology, ABUS, KABA, ISEO, EVVA, GERA, and BURGWÄCHTER.

Friendly staff with excellent training and high-quality special tools

You can expect high craftsmanship quality, whether it is a non-destructive door opening, a professional lock replacement, or the installation of high-security locking systems.
Many locksmith services only use standard tools. In many cases, these are sufficient to open accidentally shut doors. But what happens when standard tools are no longer enough? Professional locksmiths can use special instruments from their toolbox. Others may need to drill the lock open.
If we cannot open a door with standard tools, we may use the so-called “Turk.” You may ask: what is the “Turk”? The “Turk” is a tool invented by a brilliant Turkish locksmith and therefore has this somewhat unusual name in our industry. It allows the locksmith to unlock the door through the peephole.
It is always interesting for our customers to see how quickly and effectively a door can be opened using the “Turk.” Even if the movement may look unusual or entertaining, it allows us to achieve a non-destructive opening.
Even when drilling is required, we ensure damage-free work by using high-quality brand-name drill bits and reinstalling fittings in a way that leaves no visible damage.
We place great importance on quality work and damage-free service. Feel free to see for yourself—just one call away!

Please avoid attempting it yourself!

FAQs about our services as an honest locksmith in Munich Berg am Laim
What services does Locksmith Munich Berg am Laim by Mario Pichelmaier offer?
The Locksmith Munich Berg am Laim by Mario Pichelmaier offers the following main services in particular:
- Installation of Profile Cylinder Locks Profile cylinder locks are the most commonly used door locks for entrance doors in Germany. As a professional locksmith in Munich Berg am Laim, we offer the replacement, repair, and professional installation of profile cylinder locks of any type. Material, model, and design do not play a major role in our work, as we are intimately familiar with all common profile cylinder locks.
- Installation of Warded Locks (Buntbartschlösser) Warded locks are the most commonly used door locks for interior room doors in Germany. We master not only the flawless installation of profile cylinder locks but also the competent installation of warded locks. Here, too, it is irrelevant which specific warded lock is to be installed, as we have experience with all common types.
- Installation of Smart Locks Modern locks today are represented by so-called Smart Locks. Smart Locks are digital locking devices that enable door opening via an app, smartphone, remote control, code entry, facial recognition, or fingerprint, for example. As an experienced locksmith in Munich Berg am Laim, we specialize in the proper installation of smart locks of all kinds.
- Installation of Double Cylinders Operable from Both Sides We professionally and properly install not only door locks of any type but also locking cylinders. The most commonly used locking cylinders are profile cylinders that can be locked from both sides. These cylinders are also called double cylinders. If you need the replacement or installation of a double cylinder that can be locked from both sides, you have come to exactly the right place.
- Installation of Half Cylinders Operable from One Side Another common type of locking cylinder is the half cylinder, which can only be locked from one side. Such a cylinder is often installed on garage doors, for example, as garage doors usually do not need to be locked from the inside. If you need the replacement, repair, or installation of a half cylinder, you are welcome to contact us.
- Installation of Emergency and Hazard Cylinders (Not- und Gefahrenzylinder) The emergency and hazard cylinder is a special type of locking cylinder that can be locked from the outside even if a key is inserted from the inside. This special function ensures that it is primarily used in the care sector. Often, older, forgetful people leave the key inserted from the inside. To ensure that emergency services can still access the residential unit in an emergency, emergency and hazard cylinders are frequently used in retirement and nursing homes.
Normal consumers are also becoming increasingly interested in the emergency and hazard cylinder. Many find it extremely convenient not to have to pull the key out of the keyway from the inside so that another person with a matching key can gain access to the respective residential unit.
- Installation of Door Handles (Türdrücker) With the help of door handles, doors can be opened quickly and easily by pressing down the latch. However, the installation of door handles is not trivial and requires the competence of a specialist. We gladly install your door handles professionally and connect them properly with the square spindle (Vierkantstift) and lock follower (Schlossnuss).
- Installation of Door Knobs Door knobs, or rotary knobs, unless they are fixed, must be turned in cooperation with the lock follower to pull the latch bolt (Schlossfalle) out of the strike plate (Schließblech). Our experienced locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim can professionally and properly install not only door handles of any type but also door knobs of every stripe.
- Installation of Handle Sets and Door Hardware Anyone who can install door handles and door knobs properly and flawlessly can also professionally install complete handle sets (Drückergarnituren) and other door hardware. No matter what hardware needs to be attached to your door: We will gladly help you competently and at a binding fixed price.
- Installation of Anti-Panic Hardware A demanding job that tolerates no mistakes is the installation of anti-panic hardware. All hardware for anti-panic doors, escape doors, and emergency exits must be installed with the highest precision so that they function flawlessly in an emergency.
If a mass panic breaks out in a building, it is of great importance that anti-panic doors can be operated intuitively and quickly thanks to correct installation. As a locksmith for Munich Berg am Laim, we have the necessary expertise and qualifications to install anti-panic doors with all hardware for you.
- Installation of Overhead Door Closers (Obentürschließer) Because they are sustainable, help save energy costs, and increase the security of a building, they are being installed more and more frequently: overhead door closers. An overhead door closer closes a door automatically after it has been opened. There are two main variants: the overhead door closer with a scissor arm (Gelenkarm) and the overhead door closer with a slide rail (Gleitschiene). Our locksmiths can install both variants without further ado: properly and flawlessly.
- Installation of Floor Door Closers (Bodentürschließer) In addition to overhead door closers, we also install floor door closers professionally and properly. Floor door closers are embedded in the floor and are considered the more elegant door closer variant. However, the installation is also more complex and cost-intensive. If you prefer a floor door closer instead of an overhead door closer, we will gladly help you with installation, fine-tuning, and maintenance.
- Door Opening (Slammed or Accidentally Pulled-Shut Door) In addition to the installation work just mentioned, we also offer professional door opening without damage. The most common type of door opening is that of a slammed or accidentally pulled-shut entrance door. If this entrance door does not have an automatic self-locking mechanism, the door opening in Munich Berg am Laim happens quickly. It is not uncommon for the apartment or house door to be open again in just a few minutes.
- Door Opening (Locked Door) Your door is locked and you need a professional door opening? In this case, too, our competent locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim can help you at a guaranteed fixed price. The opening of a locked door is required in the following cases:
You have lost your apartment or house key and can no longer unlock the bolted entrance door.
Your key broke off inside the keyway.
A component in your lock case is defective (for example, the latch bolt or deadbolt).
A component in your locking cylinder is defective (worn tumbler pins, worn pin springs).
A component of the handle set is worn out (square spindle rounded off through frequent use, jamming door handle).
In all these and many similar cases, we can stand by your side with a professional door opening without damage.
- Measures to Increase Burglary Security Since we know our way around locks, locking cylinders, handle sets, hardware, and the like, we can also assist you in increasing the burglary security of your property in Munich Berg am Laim. It does not matter whether you want to make a residential property or a commercial property safer from thieves and shoplifters.
The basis of all measures to increase the burglary security of your property is a thorough on-site analysis, during which we detect all weak points and security gaps that burglars could exploit. Based on this analysis, we then create a tailor-made security concept containing clear recommendations for actions and products.
After you give us the go-ahead for the implementation of the final security concept, we procure all the hardware for you and then proceed with the professional installation. Thanks to our large network, we can procure not only classic hardware from the field of locking technology but also high-quality products from the field of security technology, such as motion detectors, outdoor lights, surveillance cameras, alarm systems, and much more.
The goal is to achieve the most comprehensive solution possible to increase the burglary security of your property in Munich Berg am Laim.
- Repair and Elimination of Burglary Damage Did you just come home and discover that you have been burgled? Did the burglary cause damage that needs to be repaired by a professional as quickly as possible? Our locksmith service is an active 24/7 emergency locksmith for Munich Berg am Laim. Call us at any time and we will come to you as quickly as possible to repair or eliminate the resulting burglary damage effectively.
- Installation of Locking Systems (Schließanlagen) Does your new construction project require the installation of a completely new locking system and you don't really know which locking system it should be? We gladly advise you individually and in detail, as we are intimately familiar with all common variants, designs, and models.
Apartment buildings usually get by with a central lock system (Zentralschlossanlage) or a master key system (Hauptschlüsselanlage). In both locking systems, several individual keys are provided for individual residential units. Certain keys—the keys for the central locks or master keys—can unlock several central cylinders or even all cylinders.
Large building complexes (office buildings, schools, universities, administrative buildings, etc.) generally require a grand master key system (Generalhauptschlüsselanlage / GHS-Anlage). In this locking system, there are several key hierarchies and multiple areas. While the master keys can only lock the cylinders of a specific area, the grand master key can lock all cylinders in the entire system.
Feel free to contact us and get advice on all your options regarding your new locking system. In the ideal case, we will arrange an on-site appointment at your property in Munich Berg am Laim.
- Installation of Mailbox Systems Do you rent out apartments or offices and need a high-quality mailbox system for your tenants? You don't know yet which model is best for your tenants' needs? We also provide competent and detailed advice on mailbox systems.
With mailbox systems, there are fundamentally two main designs: those that stand on a support frame (and are thus freestanding) and those that are mounted on the wall. Furthermore, you have choices between mailbox systems with or without an intercom/bell system.
After you have decided on a specific product, you can also utilize our installation, maintenance, and spare parts service. We offer all-round worry-free packages when it comes to mailbox systems, but also locking systems.
- Lock Openings Our team carries out not only door openings in Munich Berg am Laim but also lock openings. In other words: bicycle locks, gun cabinet locks, drawer locks, mailbox locks, safe and vault locks, car locks, padlocks, garden gate locks, garage door locks, and many more.

Is your locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim an officially registered and licensed company?
Mario Pichelmaier's locksmith service is officially registered and licensed. This applies both to the headquarters, the Amper Aufsperrdienst in Olching, and the operating premises in Munich's Pestalozzistraße. He has all permits to perform all the locksmith services he offers in Munich Berg am Laim. This also applies to "delicate" matters such as door opening in the event of a latch or deadbolt break.

What prerequisites must be met so that I can commission you for a door opening in Munich Berg am Laim?
There are three essential prerequisites for commissioning a professional door opening in Munich Berg am Laim with us:
In order for you to commission a non-destructive door opening with us, you must be of legal age and fully legally competent. We do not accept orders from minors.
The second important prerequisite is the accurate and truthful description of your emergency situation. This description is important so that we can calculate the exact fixed price for your emergency door opening. If your description is incorrect or important details are missing, our fixed price must be recalculated. We therefore ask you to describe your situation as precisely as possible and not to simply leave out any important details.
The third important prerequisite is providing proof of authorization. We must ensure that the client is actually allowed to enter the apartment or house behind the door to be opened and is correspondingly authorized for access. Show us your ID card, which states exactly the address in Munich Berg am Laim where the non-destructive door opening is to be done, and the proof of authorization, which is also referred to as proof of legitimation, is provided.
If you can meet these three prerequisites, you can commission a non-destructive door opening in Munich Berg am Laim from us.
What happens if I cannot show an ID before the door opening in Munich Berg am Laim because I do not have it with me?
You are standing in front of a suddenly slammed apartment door and cannot provide proof of authorization simply because you do not have an ID with you? In this case, the procedure is as follows: We take care of the non-destructive door opening and you show us proof of authorization directly after the successful door unlocking. This can then even be provided with an invoice containing your name and the address where the door opening is to be accomplished. Alternatively, you can also show us your rental contract.
You are not even able to provide valid proof of authorization after the door opening has taken place in Munich Berg am Laim? In this case, as a properly acting locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim, we are obliged to inform the Police Inspection 24 Munich (Perlach). This station is responsible not only for Perlach but also for Berg am Laim and must investigate this matter because there is a risk that we have granted access to an unauthorized person to an apartment they are not allowed to enter.
How much do you charge for a professional door opening in Munich Berg am Laim?
That depends entirely on which specific door opening you require from us or our locksmith on duty. Let's therefore best start with the conventional standard door opening:
The conventional standard door opening provides for the effective and non-destructive opening of a merely slammed or accidentally pulled-shut entrance door. The corresponding entrance door does not have a self-locking mechanism that is automatically triggered when the door falls into the lock. In this case, we only invoice 52,- EUR net for the professional door opening in Munich Berg am Laim plus 48,- EUR net for the call-out charge. The total price including value-added tax is therefore 119,- EUR gross, provided the work is done on a working day (Monday to Friday) between 08:00 AM and 06:00 PM.
If the standard door opening or also another door opening (locked door) is done between 06:01 PM and 07:59 AM, a special surcharge will be levied. The same applies to door openings on weekends or on statutory public holidays. But be assured with us that you will always be told the firmly binding total price BEFORE your commissioning. You do not have to fear any surcharges that were not communicated in advance with our locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim.
Particularly complex and time-consuming door openings are those that are required due to defects or wear and tear and where the door is additionally locked, i.e., the deadbolt is extended. The following cases belong to these types of door openings:
- Deadbolt broken (mostly in a lock with multi-point locking due to high wear and tear)
- Latch bolt broken (hanging in the strike plate and thus blocking the door)
- Wear and tear in the cylinder core of the profile cylinder (worn down pins, worn springs)
- Profile key with worn down "teeth", so that the core can no longer be turned with it and the door can thus no longer be unlocked
While most locksmiths and emergency locksmith services in Munich Berg am Laim usually manage the standard door opening non-destructively without any problems, this is quite a different story with the types of door opening just mentioned. To ensure that the door opening in the case of a locked door and/or in the event of a defect / wear and tear also takes place non-destructively, it is recommended to commission a professional locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim that understands its craft.
How should the commissioning of the door unlocking in Munich Berg am Laim take place?
Ideally: by phone. Call us, especially in an emergency, and describe your situation to us with all the details. Based on your description, we will calculate the firmly binding total price valid for you immediately. If this is okay with you, you can commission us directly over the phone. We will then drive directly to your address in Munich Berg am Laim. We do not put you on an appointment list first, which is processed from top to bottom.
You do not need the non-destructive door unlocking in Munich Berg am Laim for a few days? In this case, you are also welcome to write us an email at info@schluesseldienst-muenchen.de. We usually reply within 24–48 hours.
You are of the old school and would like to send us an order by fax? Please refrain from doing so, as we no longer accept orders via fax.
How quickly can you be at my address in Munich Berg am Laim?
Especially in emergencies, we want to be at your address in Munich Berg am Laim as quickly as possible so that the door opening, lock replacement, cylinder repair, or another urgently needed locksmith job can be carried out immediately. Our company was therefore founded as an emergency locksmith or emergency locksmith service that is active around the clock and can score points with a fast travel time.
The following reasons ensure that we are at your place in Berg am Laim within only about 30 minutes:

2. Large Team Consisting of Several Locksmiths and Mechanics: Our locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim does not consist of just one person, but is an established company with several employees.

How long does your locksmith need for the actual door opening in Munich Berg am Laim?
How long our locksmith needs for the actual door opening at your place in Munich Berg am Laim depends on which specific door opening he has to perform. If it is a standard door opening (apartment door merely slammed, lock has no automatic locking mechanism, all components are fundamentally intact), your apartment door (or house door) will be open again in just a few moments.
Significantly more working time is to be budgeted if the entrance door to be opened is firmly locked or a defective component makes the door opening necessary. For example, the following factors can ensure a more complex work process:
- The entrance door is locked and additionally features an extra lock (for example, a armored bolt lock / cross bolt lock).
- The locking cylinder is defective or worn out, which is why the door can no longer be opened. Common cases are worn tumbler pins or worn down pin springs in the cylinder core. There can also be a problem with the cam (Schließbart).
- The key broke off and one half of the key is stuck in the keyway.
- The teeth of the profile key are so worn down that the pins in the cylinder core can no longer be brought into the correct arrangement for the key turn.
- The strike plate is so warped that the door can no longer be opened.
- The latch bolt or the lock deadbolt is broken.
Particularly complex are the broken latch bolt (latch break) and the broken lock deadbolt (deadbolt break). To ensure that this type of locksmith work can take place effectively, quickly, but also professionally, a lot of know-how is required.
The door unlocking in Munich Berg am Laim takes much longer than initially assumed. Is the extra effort to be paid additionally?
With this question, too, it depends on why the door unlocking in Munich Berg am Laim suddenly takes longer than initially assumed. Is it because external factors cause the extra effort? Or does our locksmith simply not find the right solution for the fast and effective door opening right away?
If external factors cause a longer working time that we cannot influence, we reserve the right to invoice you for the extra effort. A classic example is a defect that you did not pass on to us when describing your emergency situation. If the strike plate is warped or a component in the lock case or in the locking cylinder is defective and you did not inform us of this, it would be unfair if we as Locksmith Munich Berg am Laim had to bear the extra effort.
If, on the other hand, the locksmith responsible for you does not immediately find the most effective way for the door opening, we will of course not invoice the longer effort additionally.
Can someone represent me during the door opening in Munich Berg am Laim?
Yes, a properly and formally-legally correctly appointed authorized representative can represent you on the day of the door opening at your address in Munich Berg am Laim. It is best to send us the written proxy signed by you with the exact purpose in advance so that we can check the validity of this proxy beforehand.
You do not have a usable template for a power of attorney? Feel free to contact us by writing an email to info@schluesseldienst-muenchen.de. Subsequently, we will send you a template containing all important components of a professional and valid power of attorney. Basically, the following elements should be found on it:
Name of the principal (Vollmachtgeber)
Name of the authorized representative (Bevollmächtigter)
Exact purpose and validity of the power of attorney
Signature of the principal
Date and place of issue
In addition to the formally correct, written power of attorney, proof of access authorization by the principal must also be provided. Here, too, it makes sense to provide proof of access authorization (proof of authorization / proof of legitimation) before the day of the actual door opening in Munich Berg am Laim.
It is best to send us a signed copy of your ID card, on which exactly the address can be found where the door unlocking is to take place. Alternatively, on the day of the door opening, you can give your authorized representative this copy of your ID (signed by you as the principal). No matter whether you are present yourself or have yourself represented: The proof of legitimation must always be provided!
In which cases can I still cancel the commissioned door opening in Munich Berg am Laim free of charge?
You can still cancel the door opening already commissioned at your address in Munich Berg am Laim free of charge if we have not yet set off on our way to you. If we are already on the drive to your address in Munich Berg am Laim, we reserve the right to invoice the call-out charge in the amount of 48,- EUR net.
Are we already on site? In this case, we reserve the right to invoice the previously agreed fixed price in full. From our point of view, these regulations are fair, transparent, and easy to understand.
When does my landlord have to bear the locksmith work required in my apartment in Berg am Laim?
There are numerous cases in which your landlord has to bear the locksmith work required in your rented apartment in Munich Berg am Laim. The most important basic rule in this context is that all locksmith services that must be carried out due to wear, tear, or defect are to be paid for by the landlord, not by the tenant.
Below are a few concrete examples:
- The strike plate sitting in the door frame is so worn out and warped that the apartment door can no longer be opened.
- You can no longer turn the cylinder core with your profile key. Either because the profile key and its "teeth" or because the tumbler pins or the pin springs are worn out.
- The follower (Drückernuss) is defective, which is why activating the door handle can no longer activate the latch bolt.
- The cam is defective, which is why the deadbolt can no longer be actuated by turning the key.
- There is a latch break. (Your latch bolt is broken / defective).
- There is a deadbolt break. (Your deadbolt or one of your deadbolts is broken / defective).
All these examples have to do with wear, tear, and/or a defect, which is why the remediation is as a rule to be paid for by the landlord. If, on the other hand, there is no defect and you have, for example, locked yourself out of your rented apartment due to negligence, you pay the costs for the professional door opening in Munich Berg am Laim out of your own pocket.
Is it possible that my liability insurance (Haftpflichtversicherung) covers certain locksmith work in Munich Berg am Laim?
Have you concluded a conventional household contents insurance without additional policies? In this case, it is rather unlikely that your "Hausrat" will cover the costs for the professional door unlocking in Munich Berg am Laim required by you. However, if you have concluded an additional policy in the form of an insurance certificate (Schutzbrief) for your apartment or your house, it is much more likely that the invoice amount will be paid by your insurance.
Important note: If your household contents insurance would fundamentally pay for the door opening thanks to the insurance certificate for your apartment or house, then it is important that you adhere to the procedure prescribed by your insurance. For only by adhering to this procedure is it ensured that you will actually see money from your insurance in the end.
Most insurance companies only work with certain partner craft businesses. If the locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim commissioned by you does not belong to them, you run the risk that the door opening will not be paid for by your "Hausrat", even though it would have paid for the commissioning of an official partner craft business. Avoid this by contacting your insurance in advance and finding out the exact procedure for the assumption of costs.
Do I have to sign anything so that you execute the door opening in Munich Berg am Laim?
For us to execute the door opening in Munich Berg am Laim, it is sufficient if you commission us verbally. With us, the legally effective commissioning can take place on the phone, directly after you have received the fixed price from us. On site, you do not have to sign anything for us to actually become active.
We know companies that insist that a contract be signed shortly before the door opening. Most of these companies are not reputable from our point of view. In the small print, regulations are hidden that disadvantage you and that cause high additional costs.
Fundamentally, you should not sign any contract whose regulations and clauses you do not understand 100%. In case of doubt, you should always commission a locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim that works transparently and does not hold a document with incomprehensible clauses under your nose before the door opening.
According to media reports, consumers are regularly outright pressured and physically approached so that they sign the presented contract out of fear. Should something like this happen to you, it is important to call the police immediately. Many rip-off artists act aggressively and frighteningly. In such cases, only the police can help further.
Can I also tackle the door opening in Munich Berg am Laim alone?
Yes, you can also tackle the impending door opening alone. The only question is how sensible that is. Are you a well-trained craftsman with sufficiently good locksmith knowledge? Do you have the right special tool with you precisely at the moment in which you need the door unlocking? Or are you a layman who basically has no clue about door locks at all and wants to try to get the door open again without locksmith help with the aid of YouTube videos in order to save a few Euros?
Should the latter apply, it makes no sense from our point of view to tackle the door opening in Munich Berg am Laim alone. Please do not experiment around on your entrance door or your door lock. The danger of expensive damage occurring in such an undertaking is simply too great. And it would be annoying if damage is caused by amateurish experimenting, since higher costs will then be incurred for two reasons:
First, because the door opening by the professional is more complex and thus more cost-intensive when there is damage to the door or lock. Second, because the damage caused by the improper unlocking or violent opening attempt must be repaired additionally after the door opening.
Many consumers try their hand at independent door opening because they fear encountering an dubious locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim that wants to rip them off. Experimenting around, however, is not the right answer to this. The better solution is to commission an unlocking service that works with a guaranteed fixed price.
Are there tricks with which I can quickly recognize an unreliable locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim?
Fundamentally, one can reliably and quickly recognize whether a locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim means well with one or not. With the following tricks, you can separate the wheat from the chaff:
Guaranteed Fixed Price: An unreliable locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim will under no circumstances name a guaranteed fixed price to you before the start of the actual door opening. In the advertising brochures and on the website of the respective provider, you will only see "from-fixed prices" (Ab-Festpreise). Those are indeed extremely cheap. However, if high fantasy fees are added after the work is done, the cheap from-fixed price quickly turns into a horrendous invoice amount. Our tip: Only commission a locksmith service if you know the concrete fixed price BEFORE the start of the door opening.
Reviews: While locksmith services with renown usually have high average reviews on independent review platforms, unreliable locksmith services often receive 1- or 2-star reviews. If you can find too many bad reviews for a company, a commissioning of the same is rather not to be recommended.
Local Presence: Intermediaries or dubious businessmen often do not have their company headquarters in the city where they carry out their mischief. Never commission a locksmith service that pretends to be in or near Munich Berg am Laim, but has a far away municipality or city in the legal notice (Impressum). Best pay attention also to the telephone number: Is a regional Munich telephone number to be found in the legal notice or only an 0800 hotline or mobile number?
Authenticity: Fraudsters and rip-off artists often pay attention to high-resolution and "perfect" website appearances. What often falls short on their internet pages, however, is authenticity. Check websites for authentic pictures or "About Us" pages. If no information about the team, the company history, the values, and principles of the provider can be found on the website, you should exercise caution.
Cooperations: Honest and fair locksmith services for Munich Berg am Laim often have several cooperations, not only with companies but also with offices, authorities, and institutions. Check the website of the provider to be contacted for official seals, association affiliations, memberships, and cooperation. A locksmith service that officially cooperates with the Bavarian Police or the Munich Tax Office will hardly be a rip-off artist. But beware: Some fraudsters create their own seals that look official but are not official!
With the tricks just mentioned, you should have no trouble in the future to quickly recognize an unreliable locksmith service Munich Berg am Laim.
Will I receive an invoice after the door unlocking has taken place in Munich Berg am Laim?

Which measures are suitable for increased burglary protection in my property in Munich Berg am Laim?
There are some measures with which you can provide for increased burglary protection in your property in Munich Berg am Laim. Some relate to door security, others to window security. However, one can also provide for professional burglary prevention with security items such as alarm systems, motion detectors, and video cameras.
Measures to Increase Door Security
1. High-Quality Security Locks on All Entrance Doors Have high-quality security locks installed on your entrance doors! Take into account not only your main entrance door but also your side entrance doors. Thieves like to break in via side entrance doors, which is why these must not be neglected under any circumstances in the protection concept. Security locks are made of sturdy material and are available in various security levels. An individual expert consultation makes sense for the choice of the right locks. Locks with automatic self-locking are also recommended.
2. Armored Bolt Locks / Cross Bolt Locks In addition to high-quality security locks, you also have the option of having additional locks installed on your entrance doors. One can think here, for example, of armored bolt locks (Panzerriegelschlösser), which have their name completely rightly. Armored bolt locks are also known in technical jargon as cross bolt locks (Querriegelschlösser).
3. Locking Cylinders That Offer Effective Protection Against Drilling and Core Pulling Protection (Kernziehschutz) For optimal door security, not only high-quality door locks are of importance but also secure locking cylinders. The locking cylinders attached to your entrance doors should in any case offer effective protection against drilling as well as professional core pulling protection. If a locking cylinder is equipped with core pulling protection, the cylinder core cannot be pulled out of the door even with special tools. It is best to also get individual advice on the topic of "locking cylinders", as there are also various designs and variants with different security levels here.
4. Secure Door Handles and Door Hardware In addition to door locks and locking cylinders, the door handles and door hardware on your entrance doors should also not fall short. In this context, have special security hardware attached that cannot be drilled into or open. High-quality rosettes can further boast additional core pulling protection. Fundamentally, all hardware mounted on a door can be purchased in high security levels.
Measures to Increase Window Security
1. High-Quality Window Handles with Lock To ensure that your easily accessible windows offer high security, it is highly recommended to use high-quality window handles with a lock. If a window handle is locked, breaking in via the corresponding window is significantly harder.
2. Secure Window Grilles Basement and ground floor windows should in many cases be provided with secure window grilles. This measure usually represents an insurmountable hurdle for burglars, so that it can make a big contribution to successful burglary prevention.
3. Security Films for Glass Panes and Glass Doors Do you have large window panes or numerous patio doors made of glass? To ensure that a burglar cannot get into your property so easily by smashing window panes, the attachment of high-quality security films makes sense. These films hold the shards of a glass pane together should it be smashed.
4. Window Lever Protection (Fensteraufhebelsicherung) Window lever protections can also make a good contribution to increasing your window security. These protections ensure that windows cannot be levered open even with special tools and great leverage effect.
Further Measures to Increase the Burglary Security of Your Property in Munich Berg am Laim:
1. Alarm System Increasing the window and door security of your property in Munich Berg am Laim is not enough for you? Further measures for professional burglary prevention is the installation of a tested and functional alarm system. Make sure that the alarm system sends the triggered alarm via an emergency call center to the nearest police station. If there is no connection to an emergency call center, the alarm system has "only" a discouraging effect.
2. Outdoor Lighting A tip that police officers like to give is the optimization of the outdoor lighting. The better your gardens and outdoor facilities are illuminated when it is dark, the less likely a burglary is. Thieves like to break in when it is dark. They react allergically to bright light.
3. Motion Detector Have reliable motion detectors attached at suitable places as well. The motion detector provides for a particularly discouraging effect because the burglar, when light suddenly goes on, can think that a person has operated a light switch manually. If the lamp of a motion detector goes on, a burglar quickly takes flight.
4. CCTV The installation of CCTV cameras (surveillance cameras) also helps in preventing burglaries. Please take into account applicable German law when attaching cameras. The area covered and monitored via the cameras should not exceed the legal limits. Otherwise, there could be problems with the neighbors who see themselves violated in their personal rights.
Provide for a well-thought-out mix and have all the measures implemented that appear most suitable for your residential or commercial property in Munich Berg am Laim. Fundamentally, it is advisable to get expert advice from a security expert. This person can also create a weak point analysis and, building on this, develop a clever concept for increasing your burglary security.
