The price of a locksmith call-out can vary threefold depending on the time, the complexity and… the provider's honesty. Here are the benchmarks so you never pay blind again.
Price ranges observed in Île-de-France
- Opening a slammed door (daytime, weekday): €80 to €150
- Opening a locked door / seized lock: €120 to €250
- Standard cylinder replacement: €80 to €180 including parts
- A2P high-security cylinder: €150 to €350
- Complete multipoint lock: €400 to €900 fitted
- Night / Sunday surcharge: typically +30 to +50%
What makes the price vary
The hour (night emergency), the lock type (multipoint, encased), the security level (A2P 1 to 3 stars) and travel. A serious professional always announces the foreseeable total before starting.
The anti-scam reflexes
- Demand a written quote before any work, even in an emergency: it is a legal obligation above €150
- Beware of €39 teaser prices: they often hide cascading extras
- Refuse systematic drilling: a slammed door opens without destruction in the vast majority of cases
- Check the company's address and reviews, not just its position in the ads
