When to open the door
The nature of the reasons when it is necessary to open a locked door is quite diverse. The most common include:
- Loss and theft of keys
- Breakage of the key inside the keyhole
- Jamming mechanism
- Wear and tear on the lock mechanism
- Unexpected slamming of the door with the keys inside the room
How to open the door yourself
It is necessary to remove a key fragment from the well if it is preventing the door from opening since it is trapped there. It is strongly recommended that you refrain from using your hands since doing so poses a major threat of moving the fragmented piece forward. In order to remove it, you will need to borrow some pliers or wire cutters. After the tool has the protruding end of the key and has dragged it towards you, opening the door will be an easy task. If there is a mechanism that requires many levels of discretion to be fitted, you should not even attempt to carry out this activity on your own since you run the danger of entirely destroying the device and inflicting harm to the canvas. In the case of more straightforward methods, there are a few different ways that you can do it on your own:
- Drilling the lock; Once the cylinder has been removed, any anything that is somewhat flat can be used to unlock the lock.
- By using a hammer to smash the cipher and reveal its contents. To remove the cylinder, strike it with sufficient power. The next step is to fashion a hook in the shape of a L at the tip of the knitting needle, and then release the locking mechanism.
Despite the various techniques available for opening a locked door, each approach involves potential damage to the door or lock, resulting in repair or replacement costs. To minimize any harm to the door leaf and locking mechanism, it is advisable to seek the help of a professional who has ample experience with this procedure. An experienced technician can unlock the door with precision and efficiency, without causing any damage, ensuring that the door functions as good as new.

I would want to express my gratitude to the technician Serge for the precise work he did in unlocking the lock. The issue was that the door would not go any farther towards the previous key. It just did not scroll in the castle, and that is all there is to say about it. The door was opened within a couple of minutes by a tidy and courteous master who had just arrived. After that, he provided me with a whole new set of keys and updated the code that was within the lock without taking anything apart. As a result of this, the door is in good condition, the lock is unaffected, and I have a fresh set of keys. I am grateful to you, Serge!
So let me share with you my thoughts on the Reliance Service Company! I had the simplest lock (which turned out to be a cylinder one), but the key didn't turn the lock the first time most of the time, and there was a period when I just couldn't get into my house! I spent the better part of a half an hour attempting to unlock it with an old key, and in the end, I thought it was a terrible idea. After that, I phoned the experts, they unlocked the door for me in just twenty minutes! That is to say, I spent more time attempting to open the locks on my own than it took for the masters to arrive and open them.
Hello! I am writing to convey my appreciation for the assistance you provided me with the lock. To put it mildly, we were in a peculiar circumstance. We held a birthday party in the apartment, and once it was finished, we went outside for a break to smoke, but we forgot to take the keys with us. As a consequence of this, it was discovered that there were five individuals standing on the stairwell without a key to the lock. It was fortunate for me that I carried my phone with me since they got in touch with the knowledgeable staff members working at Reliance Service almost soon. The feast began back up where it left off after an intermission of twenty minutes, just as the master was entering our area.
