Your Locksmith in the 12th: Local Knowledge Matters

From the Gare de Lyon and modern Bercy to the Aligre market and the Bois de Vincennes, the 12th is family Paris: 1930s brick buildings, post-war copropriétés and new developments — a wide mix of doors and lock generations.

We frequently upgrade 1970s-80s copropriété doors here, replacing tired original locks with A2P multipoints — the single best security upgrade these buildings can make.

Night, weekend or holiday: the surcharge, if any, is announced with the quote on the phone — never discovered on the invoice afterwards.

  • Emergency door opening — non-destructive first, from €110
  • Lock & cylinder replacement, A2P certified, from €130
  • Door reinforcement & armoured doors, free assessment
  • Safes, smart locks and break-in securing — 24/7
  • Key cutting, including protected keys on property card
  • Metal shutters and grilles for shops — 24/7
