The emergencies we handle in the 10th

Keys left behind as you rush to catch a train at Gare du Nord, a door slammed shut as you step out onto the quai de Valmy, a cylinder attacked while you were away for the weekend: we send a locksmith at any hour, from Gare du Nord to place de la République.

If the lock has been forced, leave it as it is until we arrive and photograph it for your insurance. We tell you the price incl. VAT before we set off.

Night call-outs

After 8pm, the daytime rate goes up by 30% until midnight, then by 50%. Saturdays and Sundays cost no more than weekdays.

Reinforcing your door, from the faubourg to the canal

Between the stations, the canal and the faubourgs, buildings in the 10th range from 19th-century workers’ housing to the Haussmann-era buildings of boulevard de Magenta. Depending on the door, we reinforce it or replace it with an A2P-certified security door.

After a break-in, the door has sometimes suffered too much to be reinforced: we explain this on our security door in Paris 10 page. In other cases, reinforcement makes your door stronger and adds a multipoint lock, without changing how it looks from the landing.

Depending on the door’s condition

  • Sound door: reinforcement strengthens it, on a smaller budget.
  • Damaged or split door: a new security door is needed.
  • Frame that has shifted: we check it before suggesting anything.

The 10th, from Gare du Nord to place de la République

Saint-Vincent-de-Paul, Porte-Saint-Denis, Porte-Saint-Martin and Hôpital-Saint-Louis: four administrative quarters, each with a very different character, where we work day and night.

Saint-Vincent-de-Paul, between the two stations

Around the church of Saint-Vincent-de-Paul and Lariboisière hospital, the neighbourhood lives to the rhythm of Gare du Nord. Hotels and flats let by the week sit alongside family homes: a lost key here quickly becomes an emergency. We come out to open the door and change the cylinder at any hour.

  • Boulevard de Magenta
  • Rue La Fayette
  • Rue de Dunkerque
  • Rue de Maubeuge
  • Rue d’Abbeville
  • Place Franz-Liszt
  • Rue de Saint-Quentin
  • Rue Ambroise-Paré

Porte-Saint-Denis, from the faubourg to the covered passages

Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Denis, passage Brady and passage du Prado, rue de Paradis and its former crystal and porcelain shops: the neighbourhood mixes restaurants, workshops and homes in old buildings, often set around a courtyard. Here we open doors, change locks and repair metal shutters.

  • Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Denis
  • Passage Brady
  • Passage du Prado
  • Rue de Paradis
  • Rue des Petites-Écuries
  • Rue d’Hauteville
  • Boulevard de Bonne-Nouvelle
  • Rue de l’Échiquier

Porte-Saint-Martin, theatres and the faubourg

From the theatres of boulevard Saint-Martin to the town hall of the 10th on rue du Faubourg-Saint-Martin, by way of the Saint-Martin market and rue du Château-d’Eau: apartment buildings, artisans’ courtyards and offices share the neighbourhood. Original doors are plentiful here, and they lend themselves well to reinforcement.

  • Boulevard Saint-Martin
  • Rue du Château-d’Eau
  • Boulevard de Strasbourg
  • Rue René-Boulanger
  • Rue de Lancry
  • Rue Lucien-Sampaix
  • Quai de Valmy

Hôpital-Saint-Louis, the canal’s east bank

Along the quai de Jemmapes and around Saint-Louis hospital, former workshops and small 19th-century buildings line streets that come alive in the evening, such as rue Bichat and rue Sainte-Marthe. In small buildings without a caretaker, a well-secured door counts double: reinforcement or a security door, depending on its condition.

  • Rue Bichat
  • Rue Sainte-Marthe
  • Rue de la Grange-aux-Belles
  • Rue Alibert
  • Avenue Claude-Vellefaux
  • Rue Juliette-Dodu
  • Place du Colonel-Fabien

Beyond place de Stalingrad, the canal runs on into the 19th, where we also work (locksmith Paris 19).

Your questions, our answers for the 10th

If your question isn’t here, call us: a locksmith will answer at any hour.

Do you open doors in hotels and furnished flats?

Yes, at the request of the manager or the owner. For a furnished let, we also change the cylinder between two occupants if keys have not been returned.

My cylinder has been ripped out: what should I do before you arrive?

Don’t try to lock the door again with the damaged cylinder. Take photos, report it to the police if there has clearly been a break-in, and call us: we secure the door, then fit a protected cylinder. Every step is set out on our lock change in Paris 10 page.

Locked door: how much does it cost to open?

During the day, opening a standard locked door costs €135 incl. VAT; for a security door, expect €149. After 8pm the surcharge is added, and you know it before the locksmith sets off.

Do you work in courtyards and in buildings without a caretaker?

Yes. Give us the door code for the building entrance or meet us in the street: the locksmith calls you on arrival.

Do you give quotes for door reinforcement in the 10th?

Yes, free of charge: we come and look at the door and its frame, then give you a detailed quote. Door reinforcement starts at €2,690 incl. VAT.

Do you have far to come to reach the 10th?

Our office is in western Paris, but our locksmiths criss-cross the capital: they cover the whole of 75010, from Gare du Nord to the Canal Saint-Martin and from the porte Saint-Denis to place du Colonel-Fabien.
