More protection against burglars with the right ideas and products
A topic that many people, including those in Munich, Feldmoching, underestimate is burglary protection. Many don’t even realize how vulnerable they are due to their locking systems on their doors. Protection against burglars and thieves could be significantly increased with the right (cost-effective) solutions. Or rather, increased to the point where burglars are more likely to refrain from breaking into your home because there’s much easier prey.
Have you ever considered installing a high-quality multi-point lock on your front door? Or a lock with a security or crossbar on your villa door? Perhaps you wish to have your patio doors fitted with special security devices? Or your windows with lockable handles? For all these and countless other similar questions, we are the right contact for you. We provide transparent, comprehensive, and personalized advice. And we’ve been doing this as a competent locksmith in Munich, Feldmoching, since 1981!
To significantly increase the security and protection of your property against burglary, we typically proceed as follows: During an on-site appointment, we carefully inspect the property to be secured. During the analysis and inspection, we try to identify all security gaps that thieves and pickpockets could exploit to break in. Professionally closing these gaps is the main task, which must be addressed by the security concept developed after the analysis.
When developing your customized security concept, we discuss recommended hardware, systems, and locking and security technology products that could be installed and installed at your location. Do you like our security concept? After your approval, we will quickly procure all security products and locking systems. After delivery, we will then install them expertly and professionally.
Do you need professional initial advice on property and burglary protection? Feel free to call us and receive helpful tips and advice on your first call. As a customer-oriented and competent locksmith in Munich Feldmoching, we do not operate a call center, switchboard, or virtual office. Our on-call locksmiths always answer the phone themselves. The reason: When opening doors or changing locks, an experienced professional must be able to quickly assess exactly what needs to be done. Only such a professional can quickly calculate a fair and binding fixed price. Laypeople or secretaries who have never opened a door before cannot possibly understand the wide variety of situations!
Locksmith Munich Feldmoching with a diverse range of services
As an experienced locksmith in Munich Feldmoching with four decades of experience, we offer many other locksmith services in addition to non-destructive unlocking, expert cylinder changes, professional lock replacements, precise locking system installations, and various services in the area of property and burglary protection. For example, we can also help you with burglary damage repair or with the reliable opening of locks that are not attached to a door.
Are you currently experiencing the problem of no longer being able to open your garden gate because the lock is broken and simply won’t open?

Professional locksmith service in Munich Feldmoching with professional locksmith specialty tools
In addition to our reliable 24-hour emergency service, our fair and transparent pricing, and our precise approach to every locksmith job, the use of professional locksmith specialty tools is particularly important to us. Why? When opening standard doors that have simply been closed or pulled shut (without a self-locking mechanism), it can sometimes happen that standard locksmith tools aren’t enough. In such a case, inexperienced or uninformed locksmiths immediately resort to a drill to open the door by drilling out the lock. However, as an experienced locksmith service in Munich Feldmoching, we can conjure up specialty tools from our toolbox that make it possible to open the door via the peephole.
Specialty tools are generally not inexpensive to purchase, which is why new or less professional locksmiths, in particular, tend to avoid them. However, we consider it extremely important to have the right (special) tool for every (special) case. This also applies to drilling. We certainly don’t use cheap, name-brand tools (or cheap lumps) to drill out locks or cylinders. We prefer to use high-quality, brand-name drill bits from reputable manufacturers with a good reputation. Because only with these tools can we work as precisely and accurately as possible.
In order to open firmly locked entrance doors without causing any noticeable damage, not only is the use of professional drill bits and tools important. Also crucial is the professional installation of the lock, cylinder, and fittings after drilling and unlocking. Anyone who has mastered this can therefore ensure that even firmly locked doors can be unlocked without causing any visible damage in most cases!
Door opening on your own? Please don’t do it!
You don’t want to hire a specialist to open your door in Feldmoching, but would rather try it yourself – even without any (special) locksmith tools? As an experienced locksmith who has seen so much, we strongly advise against it. The simple reason: Such attempts on your own can quickly result in massive and therefore expensive damage to your door (frame, casing, lock, cylinder, etc.). This often exceeds the costs that would be incurred for a professional door opening at a fairly calculated fixed price.
Some “incorrigible” or “unteachable” people use brute force to get your door open again. Others fumble around with tools they’ve quickly borrowed from a neighbor. Still others google tutorials or videos to try to regain access to their apartment using hacks or tricks. But none of that matters in our view. Door openings belong in professional hands. And anyone who turns to a fair, customer-friendly, and affordable locksmith in Munich Feldmoching really doesn’t have to pay exorbitant amounts.
It’s simply important to make sure that you hire a locksmith who works at a fixed price, which is also transparently stated before the door is opened. Therefore, no additional costs should be charged after the price is paid. At the Munich locksmith service – Herbert Pichelmaier, this price is already quoted over the phone. This way, you don’t have to worry about suddenly having to pay a significantly higher price after the work is done.
Other locksmiths may take a different approach. However, in our view, this approach is neither clean nor reputable. We fundamentally distance ourselves from all dubious practices in the locksmith industry, which is why we deliberately offer a fixed-price guarantee. This is the only way we’ve been able to build an excellent reputation and survive in our industry for 40 years!

Locksmith Munich Feldmoching: Frequently Asked Questions
Below, we answer the most frequently asked questions from our customers in Feldmoching. The questions are arranged to provide a logical and informative flow, starting with basic information and ending with specific scenarios. We’ve also added new questions to expand the content and give you even more insight into our work as a locksmith in Munich, Feldmoching.
How quickly will the locksmith expert arrive at my location in Feldmoching?
In an emergency, every minute counts. Our locksmith service in Munich, Feldmoching, specializes in helping you as quickly as possible. We can usually reach you within about 30 minutes, depending on traffic and the location of the on-call employee. Should it take longer, for example, due to unforeseen traffic jams, we will inform you of the estimated arrival time during your call. Thanks to our efficient organization and multiple technicians on duty, we avoid long wait times. We also don't work with waiting lists or appointment lists, unlike conventional locksmith services that aren't part of the emergency services.
Our employees are equipped with the latest tools to complete the work professionally and quickly on-site. Our fast response time makes us one of the most reliable locksmith services in Feldmoching.
How much does it cost to open a door in Feldmoching with Herbert Pichelmaier Locksmith and Unlocking Service?
The costs for opening a door vary depending on the time of day, effort required, and the type of lock or locking system. For a simple, damage-free door opening (a closed door without a self-locking mechanism), we charge €55 net plus €45 net travel costs Monday to Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Including VAT, the total price is €119.
Outside of these hours, moderate surcharges apply for evening, night, or holiday work, which we calculate fairly. More complex cases, such as a broken latch (when the lock latch catches on the strike plate and thus blocks the door) or a broken deadbolt (often with multi-point locking systems, although deadbolts on "normal" doors can also break), require more time and expertise, which is why the costs are higher. Our locksmith service in Munich Feldmoching guarantees complete price transparency: We'll give you a binding fixed price over the phone, so you know exactly what costs you'll incur. This clarity protects you from hidden fees and unexpectedly high bills.
Does Herbert Pichelmaier's Munich Feldmoching locksmith service work around the clock?
Yes, we are a genuine 24/7 emergency service. Whether it's the middle of the night, on weekends, or on holidays, our locksmith service in Munich Feldmoching is available to you at any time. Emergencies don't respect office hours, and that's why we're always ready to help you in critical situations. Our technicians are trained to work precisely and with a customer-focused approach, even under time pressure. Whether you've locked yourself out at 3 a.m. or need to repair burglary damage on a holiday, we won't let you down. Our 24/7 service is a core component of our offering and sets us apart from many other providers.
Do I have to pay more for calls outside of business hours?
Additional fees apply for calls between 6:01 p.m. and 7:59 a.m., as well as on weekends and public holidays. However, these are calculated fairly and will be clearly communicated to you in advance. As a customer-oriented locksmith service in Munich Feldmoching, we attach great importance to ensuring that you know the total price before we begin work. This keeps the costs manageable and understandable for you. Our transparent pricing is one reason why customers trust us and regularly recommend us.
Our customers include not only private individuals, but also companies and government agencies. For example, we frequently work for tax offices, customs authorities, police departments, city administrations, district offices, and the like.
How can I contact Herbert Pichelmaier's Munich Feldmoching locksmith service?
In emergencies, the fastest way is to call us at 089 330 900 90. Our staff are available around the clock and will initiate the necessary steps immediately. Describe your problem to us, and we will organize the door opening or other locksmith work immediately. For scheduled work, such as the installation of a locking system or security advice, you can also contact us by email. Please note, however, that emails are not the fastest option in emergencies, as we cannot always process them immediately. For urgent matters, a phone call is the best option. Write down our phone number in your smartphone.
Is Herbert Pichelmaier's locksmith and unlocking service licensed?
Founded in 1981, Herbert Pichelmaier's locksmith and unlocking service holds all the necessary licenses and permits to perform locksmith work in Munich and the surrounding area. From damage-free door opening to the installation of locking systems and advice on burglary protection, we are qualified and certified. Our employees regularly participate in training courses to stay up-to-date with the latest techniques and technologies. This professionalism guarantees you not only high quality but also compliance with legal standards. You can rest assured that your door opening or locksmith work is being carried out by a reputable and licensed provider.
Do I need to show my ID before opening the door in Feldmoching?
Yes, to ensure that only authorized persons are granted access, we require proof of your authorization to open the door. This can be done by presenting a document such as an ID card, a registration certificate, or a rental agreement that confirms your address. If you do not have any ID with you, for example, because you spontaneously locked yourself out, you can provide proof immediately after the door is opened. Without proof, we are obligated to inform the police to prevent misuse. This measure protects both you and us and ensures that our services are used only by authorized persons. We thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation!
Who is authorized to request a door opening from our locksmith service in Munich, Feldmoching?
Any adult and legally competent person who is authorized to have the door opened can commission us. Minors or persons without access authorization are not permitted to request a door opening from our locksmith service in Munich, Feldmoching. Proof of authorization, such as an ID with the appropriate address, is an important part of our process to ensure the safety of everyone involved. For example, if you are a tenant and need a door opened for your apartment, you must provide proof that you live there. If you are unable to do this, unfortunately we cannot help you.
How long does it take to open a door yourself in Feldmoching?
The time it takes to open a door depends on the situation. We can usually open a closed door without a self-locking mechanism within 2 to 5 minutes, as this is a simple job that can be completed quickly with special tools. More complex cases, such as a lost key, a broken key in the lock, or a broken latch, require more time and expertise.
A broken latch, where the lock latch is blocked in the strike plate, or a broken deadbolt in a multi-point locking system can take 30 to 60 minutes or longer, depending on the complexity. Our locksmith service in Munich Feldmoching specializes in such challenges and works as efficiently as possible without compromising quality. Our technicians have years of experience and high-quality tools to handle even the most difficult cases. Not every locksmith has the necessary quality tools to handle a broken latch or deadbolt!
Can I open a door myself, for example, with the help of a tutorial?
We strongly advise against attempting to open a door yourself – even with the help of a tutorial. Without professional tools and expertise, you risk damage to the door, lock, or frame, which can far exceed the cost of a professional opening. For example, an improper attempt to open a lock can damage the cylinder, necessitating an expensive replacement. Online tutorials may seem tempting, but they rarely consider the complexity of modern locking systems, which often require specialized techniques. Trust the expertise of an experienced locksmith to avoid unnecessary costs and frustration. Our technicians are trained to open doors with as little damage as possible and ensure your security.
What can I do if I've lost my key and can no longer access my apartment in Feldmoching?
A lost key is a common problem that we can solve quickly and professionally. We open your door without causing damage and, if necessary, can replace the lock to ensure the security of your home or office. Our technicians are equipped with a wide selection of replacement locks and cylinders, allowing us to complete the work on-site. If you're concerned that your lost key has fallen into the wrong hands, we recommend replacing the lock to prevent unauthorized access. We're happy to advise you on the best options, such as high-security locking cylinders or smart locks that offer additional protection.
Can Herbert Pichelmaier's Munich Feldmoching locksmith service also open smart locks?
Yes, we are very familiar with opening smart locks. If your electronic lock's battery is dead or there's a technical defect, we can open the door without causing any damage. Our employees regularly attend training courses and workshops to keep up with the latest technologies in locking technology. Smart locks that work with PIN codes, fingerprints, or smartphone apps require specialized knowledge, which we have. We can not only open the door, but also replace the battery or perform minor repairs on-site to restore the functionality of your lock.
Will my insurance cover the costs of opening the door in Feldmoching?
Whether your insurance covers the costs depends on your policy. Home contents insurance with a housing protection policy or liability insurance often covers the costs of opening doors or changing lock cylinders in the event of a lost key. It is important that you contact your insurance company in advance, as some providers only work with certain locksmiths. If you hire us without consulting us and we are not a partner of your insurance company, reimbursement may be denied. We recommend clarifying these details before calling us to avoid complications later. Please keep our invoice in a safe place, as it will be required for insurance settlement.
When does my landlord cover the costs of door unlocking in Feldmoching?
Your landlord is obligated to cover the costs if the door needs to be unlocked due to wear and tear. Examples include a broken deadbolt, a defective lock latch, or a worn-out key that no longer works. In such cases, the responsibility lies with the landlord, as these are maintenance issues. However, if you have locked yourself out, lost the key, or are unable to open the door through your own fault, you will bear the costs yourself. If you are unsure whether your landlord is responsible, we can assess the damage on-site and provide you with an assessment. Document the incident in writing, perhaps with photos, to support your claim against the landlord.
Will I receive an invoice from Herbert Pichelmaier's Locksmith Service Munich Feldmoching?
Yes, after every door opening, we issue you a detailed invoice that transparently lists all costs, including labor, materials, and travel expenses. As a reputable company, we adhere to all tax regulations and regularly work with authorities to ensure the highest standards. The invoice is especially important if you want to be reimbursed by your insurance company or landlord. We ensure that all relevant information, such as the date, address, and type of service, is clearly documented.
Can I cancel an order for door unlocking in Feldmoching that I've already placed?
Cancellation is free of charge as long as we haven't left yet. If we're already on our way to you, a travel fee of EUR 45 net will apply. We will clearly inform you of the terms and conditions to avoid misunderstandings. If you wish to cancel the order, please call us as soon as possible so that we can adjust the schedule accordingly.
Are there any good tips for quickly identifying a dubious locksmith?
To avoid a dubious provider, pay attention to the following points:
Check the legal notice: A local address and telephone number are a good sign. Be suspicious of 0800 numbers or company headquarters abroad.
Read reviews: Bad reviews, especially those that indicate rip-offs or excessive prices, are a warning sign. Platforms like Google Reviews or local forums provide insight.
Analyze the website: Reputable providers have authentic content, such as team photos, detailed service descriptions, or customer testimonials. Empty or generic websites are suspect.
Fixed price guarantee: Be wary of unrealistically low starting prices that are later inflated by additional fees. Reputable providers will tell you the total price up front.
Our locksmith service in Munich Feldmoching operates with complete transparency and a fixed price guarantee to gain your trust. We are proud of our positive customer reviews and our local roots in Feldmoching.
How can I make the windows of my apartment in Feldmoching more burglar-proof?
Burglary protection often begins with the windows, as these are often a weak point. The most effective measures include:
Window grilles: Grilles offer robust protection, especially for basement windows or ground-floor windows.
Anti-lift devices: These prevent burglars from forcing open the window.
Security films: They make the glass shatterproof and make breaking in more difficult.
Additional locks or window bars: These offer additional protection and are easy to install.
High-quality window fittings: Fittings with mushroom-head locking devices are particularly durable.
We offer comprehensive consultations to optimally secure your windows and doors. Our experts analyze your property on-site and recommend customized solutions that meet your budget and security requirements. In addition to windows, we also inspect front doors, side entrances, and garage doors to professionally eliminate weak points.
Can Herbert Pichelmaier's Munich Feldmoching locksmith service install locking systems?
Yes, we are experts in the planning and installation of locking systems, whether for residential buildings, office buildings, schools, or universities. Especially for larger properties, we recommend master key systems (GHS), which enable a flexible key hierarchy. With a GHS system, different access levels can be defined, for example, for employees, caretakers, or security personnel. The master key opens all cylinders but should be kept securely, as its loss would require replacing all locks. Our experts will advise you individually to find the right locking system for your needs and will carry out the professional installation.

How can I avoid losing keys?
Losing keys is annoying and can be expensive. Here are some practical tips to avoid them:
Create fixed storage locations: Always put your keys in the same place, such as a bowl in the hallway or a special bag.
Use a key chain: A conspicuous chain makes the key easier to find.
Leave a spare key: Keep a spare key with a trusted person, such as a neighbor or family member. Avoid unsafe hiding places, such as under the doormat.
Use key trackers: Modern Bluetooth trackers help locate lost keys using a smartphone.
Consider smart locks: Electronic locks that work with PIN codes or fingerprints make physical keys unnecessary.
If you do lose a key, contact us immediately. We'll open your door and advise you on security measures, such as replacing the lock.
What modern locking technologies are available?
Locking technology has evolved significantly in recent years. Here are some of the modern solutions we offer:

Biometric locks: Fingerprint scanners are particularly secure because they grant access only to authorized persons.

Mechanical high-security locks: Modern locking cylinders with anti-picking and anti-drill protection offer robust protection against burglary attempts.
We are happy to advise you on the advantages and disadvantages of each technology and professionally install the desired solution in your home. Smart locks, in particular, are becoming increasingly popular in Feldmoching because they combine flexibility and security.

She called us at 10 p.m., and our technician was on site within 25 minutes. The door was opened without damage in under five minutes. Ms. Müller was thrilled with the prompt assistance and the fair price of €149 (including a night surcharge).
Burglary damage in a villa: Mr. Schmidt discovered a broken lock and a forced-open window after a break-in. Our team was on site within 20 minutes, temporarily secured the apartment, and installed a high-security lock and security film for the windows the next day.
