A house door on a cobbled villa, a garden gate, a glazed studio door: in the 14th, we change the locks of houses as well as apartments, from the cylinder alone to a full multipoint lock. Price given before we come out, 7 days a week.
A house has no caretaker and no neighbours across the landing to notice a forced door: its lock has to hold out on its own. On a thick, solid door, an A2P-certified multipoint lock secures the full height of the door; on a lighter door, a three-point lock with a protected cylinder already makes a big difference.
For a family, a keypad lock saves having lots of keys cut: everyone has their own code, which can be changed whenever needed. Garden doors and garden gates are fitted with locks designed for outdoor use. Every scenario is covered on our lock change in Paris page.

The 14th has many villas, cités and passages lined with houses. Here are the ones where we often work.
Artists’ and architects’ houses from the 1920s: solid wood doors, sometimes glazed, which we fit with multipoint locks without changing their design.
Low houses and small gardens along cobbled streets: front doors and garden gates whose locks often date from when the houses were built. We replace them with modern models, cylinders included.
Houses and small buildings grouped around a shared garden, behind an iron gate: the gate lock and the door lock can be made to open with the same key, if you wish.
Studios with huge glass windows on rue Campagne-Première and boulevard Raspail: glazed or metal doors, for which we choose the lock according to the frame rather than the glass.
A door slammed shut, a door reinforcement, a shop shutter? Our locksmith Paris 14 page brings together our other services.
Starting prices incl. VAT for common jobs on a house door; we confirm the amount on the phone before we come out.
A multipoint lock is priced by quote, depending on the door.
A photo of the door, from the street side and from inside, is often all we need to advise you.
The locking itself remains mechanical, on several points: what changes is how it opens, with a code rather than a key. Codes can be changed at any time, with no copies to make, and most models have an emergency opening in case the batteries run low.
Often, yes: their locks just need to take the same type of cylinder. We then supply cylinders that all open with a single key; for the garden gate, which is exposed to the rain, we choose a model designed for outdoor use.
Yes: a multipoint lock that engages in the frame, and a double cylinder with no thumb-turn on the inside, so that nobody can open the door by reaching through a broken pane.
It’s wise: you never know how many keys the previous owners, their relatives or their tradespeople have kept. A new cylinder on each door is usually enough, without touching the locks themselves.
