Emergency locksmith in Alcoi, from Batoi to Font Dolça at any hour

What counts as urgent

Shut out, locked in, or a lock that has given up

Ring at any hour for any of these:

• Locked out: the door pulled shut behind you, or the keys left on the inside of a double-locked door.
• Lost keys: dropped, stolen with a bag, or simply gone, so you cannot get in and someone else might.
• A broken key: snapped off in the cylinder, with half a key in your hand.
• A jammed lock: the key goes in and will not turn, or turns and the door stays shut.
• Locked in: a door you cannot open from the inside, which is never left until morning.

Keys locked in a car are urgent too, and have their own page about locked cars. A door that has been forced is dealt with on the page about break-ins.

Being found in Alcoi

Why the first question is often “which bridge?”

Alcoi is built across the ravines of five rivers, and its barris are joined by bridges. The Canalejas viaduct runs 54 metres above the Molinar; the Pont de Sant Jordi carries l’Eixample over the ravine to the Centre. A map pin dropped from a phone can land on a bridge while you are standing in the street below it.

Name the bridge or the square you are nearest, say whether you are on the street above or below, and if you are in the old town, where the van can stop: in the Barri de la Sang the streets were laid out long before cars. The guide on giving directions in Alcoi goes through it.

In winter, ring before you are frozen. January nights here average around 4 °C, and some winters bring snow to the hills round the town. If you are shut out of a house in l’Estepar, Baradello or Montesol on a night like that, there is a guide for a lockout on a snowy night.
