Door lock repair and service in Warsaw
We repair, adjust and replace door locks, cylinders, locking bolts and multipoint mechanisms. We also work with selected Gerda locks operated by a tubular, often called round, key.
Does the key resist, the lock fail to engage, the door remain blocked or the keys go missing? We identify the lock and the cause first, then agree the appropriate repair or authorised emergency opening service.
- Diagnosis before repair
- Gerda lock service
- Final operating check
Send the complete door, lock faceplate, escutcheon and key. Do not send identity documents, key-card data or key codes.
Fault diagnosis
When does a door lock need servicing?
Resistance at the key does not always mean a faulty cylinder. The cause may be door alignment, the strike, locking bolts, the multipoint strip or wear inside the mechanism.
The key jams or will not turn
The key enters with resistance, stops during rotation or is difficult to remove.
- Cylinder and key inspection
- Checking whether door pressure is loading the lock
The lock will not secure the door
The latch or bolts miss the strike and the leaf must be pushed or pulled before locking.
- Door and strike alignment check
- Mechanism adjustment or repair
The key has broken or remains inside
A key fragment is left in the cylinder or the mechanism has blocked during normal use.
- Safe assessment before dismantling
- Repair or replacement of the damaged component
The door has slammed shut or keys are lost
The approach is selected for the doorset and security level after confirming the customer’s right of access.
- Access authorisation verification
- The least invasive suitable approach
Excessive force can snap the key, damage the cylinder or affect the locking components. If the mechanism clearly resists, stop and have the cause assessed.
Service scope
What does our lock service cover?
The work is agreed after identifying the door, lock type and actual cause. Components that remain serviceable are not replaced unnecessarily.
Lock mechanism repair
Diagnosis and repair where the condition of the mechanism and availability of compatible parts allow safe restoration.
Cylinder replacement
A cylinder is matched to its dimensions, the door construction, security escutcheon and required protection level.
Lock and strike adjustment
The latch, bolts and strikes are aligned when door position or closing hardware is causing the fault.
Multipoint locks
Inspection of the strip, bolts and locking points in entrance, steel and aluminium doors.
Tubular-key locks
Identification of selected Gerda tubular-key solutions, including products from the TYTAN and RIM families.
Emergency door opening
Opening a slammed or blocked door after the person requesting the service has been verified.
Gerda · tubular and round keys
Service for Gerda locks with round keys
The manufacturer’s technical term is a tubular key. Customers frequently call it a round key. This type of solution is used in selected locks and cylinders from the TYTAN and RIM families.
What we inspect
We identify the mechanism and locking arrangement first, because a similar exterior does not guarantee identical internal components.
- Operation of the key and cylinder
- Bolts, strikes and lock strip
- Door leaf position within the frame
- Condition of escutcheons and fixings
Repair or replacement
The decision depends on wear, the cause of failure and whether a compatible component is available.
- Alignment between lock and doorset
- Repair of serviceable mechanism parts
- Agreed cylinder or lock replacement
- Final check of every locking point
Tubular key
The technical name for a cylindrical key, commonly described as a round key.
Lock system
Model markings and clear photographs help identify the correct service scope.
Multipoint door
We inspect the cylinder, bolts, lock strip, strikes and door alignment as one complete system.
The service scope is matched to the identified model, condition of the mechanism and availability of compatible components. Restricted keys should be duplicated under the manufacturer’s rules and any code-card requirements.
Responsible service
Emergency opening only for an authorised person
We open homes, offices and commercial premises only for a person with a legitimate right of access. We do not publish or provide instructions for bypassing security devices.
Request verification
Before opening, we may ask for identification or other evidence of the right to the premises. If documents are locked inside, the verification method is agreed before work begins.
Protection of the door
The door construction and available options are assessed first. We aim to limit damage, although the final scope depends on the fault and security system.
Service process
From enquiry to final lock check
A short description and clear photographs help us prepare, but the final diagnosis is made at the door.
You describe the symptom, door type and location and send photographs of the lock.
For emergency opening, the method of confirming access rights is agreed in advance.
We inspect the cylinder, lock case, bolts, strikes and door alignment.
The available solution and cost are explained before work starts.
We complete the agreed work and test the lock with the door open and closed.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Useful information before arranging lock repair, replacement or emergency door opening.
What is the Polish name for a round Gerda key?
The technical term is “klucz rurkowy”, meaning tubular key. Customers also commonly use “klucz okrągły”, meaning round key.
Do you repair Gerda locks?
We service selected Gerda locks, cylinders and door mechanisms. The available repair depends on the model, condition and compatible parts.
Does a sticking lock always need replacement?
No. Door alignment, a displaced strike or local mechanism resistance may be responsible. Diagnosis determines whether adjustment, repair or replacement is appropriate.
Can you open a slammed door?
Yes, after verifying the customer’s legitimate right to the home, office or premises. The working method depends on the door construction and security system.
What should I do when the key is difficult to turn?
Do not force it. The key may snap and the damage may increase. Stop and describe the symptom to a service technician.
Which photographs should I send?
Send the complete door, cylinder and escutcheon from both sides, the lock faceplate with the door open and the key without visible codes or security-card details.
Do you travel outside Warsaw?
Yes, to selected locations around Warsaw. Availability and travel cost are agreed from the address and type of request.
Is the lock sticking, failing to secure or has the door slammed shut?
Call us or send photographs on WhatsApp. Describe the symptom, door type and district so we can advise what information is needed before a visit.
