Locksmith in the three neighbourhoods of Malakoff

Adjoining the 14th arrondissement, Malakoff rises gently from the ring road up to the fort de Vanves. Since 2020, the town has divided it into three neighbourhood councils: Nord, Centre and Sud.

The Nord, between the ring road and avenue Pierre-Larousse

This is the oldest built-up part of Malakoff: small early-20th-century apartment buildings, workshops and shops on the ground floor, courtyards reached through a porch. Around the Maison des arts and the sentier du Tir, the neighbourhood is made up of small streets. For a door slammed shut in one of these buildings, the opening is usually done without damage; tell us when you call about any porch or entry code to get through. The porte de Vanves flea market is just on the other side of the ring road.

  • Rue Victor-Hugo
  • Rue François-Coppée
  • Rue Vincent-Morris
  • Avenue du 12-Février-1934
  • Sentier du Tir

The Centre, around the town hall and the Théâtre 71

Redeveloped between 2011 and 2013, the town centre revolves around place du 11-Novembre-1918: town hall, Théâtre 71, covered market. Around it, from rue Pasteur to rue Benjamin-Raspail, the buildings mix town houses, small apartment blocks and more recent residences, as far as the Espace de vie sociale Pierre-Valette. After a move, we change the cylinder or the whole lock, like for like or with an A2P-certified model, without touching the door.

The Sud, from boulevard Camélinat to the fort de Vanves

Higher than the rest of the town, the south of Malakoff brings together the fort de Vanves, the cité des Poètes and cité des Nouzeaux estates, the Clos-Montholon and the Barbusse sector, which is covered by an urban renewal project. Post-war housing estates sit alongside private villas and detached houses. For an opening in a residence, give us the building, the staircase and the hall code when you call. We also go as far as rue des Garmants, which joins Clamart.

We also work in Vanves, in Montrouge and, on the other side of the ring road, in the 14th arrondissement.

Emergency locksmith in Malakoff, day and night

Door slammed shut on the way down to the market on place du 11-Novembre, key broken in the cylinder of a courtyard workshop, door broken open in a villa after a burglary: call us, at any hour. The locksmith leaves from the 16th arrondissement and comes anywhere in Malakoff, from the sentier du Tir to the fort de Vanves.

Describe the door on the phone, or send a photo of the lock on WhatsApp. The price incl. VAT is given to you before the locksmith sets off, and nothing is done without your agreement. At the end of the job, you receive an itemised invoice, to attach to your insurance claim if the door was forced.

Night and weekend locksmith

From 8 pm to midnight, a 30% surcharge; after midnight, 50%. Weekends are charged at daytime rates.

Changing a lock in Malakoff

Fewer than one in three households in Malakoff own their home: with every move, it is best not to keep the previous occupant’s lock. We change the cylinder, from €90 incl. VAT, or the complete lock, in a small building in the Nord as in a residence in the Sud.

Prices in Malakoff are the same as in Paris, and the model is chosen with you: cylinder only, single-point lock or A2P-certified multipoint lock. Every case is detailed on our lock change page.

What a locksmith costs in Malakoff

Our prices incl. VAT are the same across Paris and the Hauts-de-Seine. Door reinforcement, security doors and security locks come with a free quote.

“From” prices vary with the door, the lock brand and the time of the call-out.

Reinforcing or replacing your door in Malakoff

Wooden door of a town house, landing door in a small older building in the Nord, entrance of a house in a private villa: in Malakoff, we reinforce the existing door or install an A2P-certified security door, with a free quote.

Measurements are taken at your home and the quote is free. To compare the options, see door reinforcement and our security doors.

Depending on your door

  • Town house: a reinforcement with a multipoint lock strengthens the original door and keeps its appearance from the street.
  • Small older building: a fire-rated door may be required depending on the building; ask the building manager before choosing your door.
  • Picard security door: Picard doors are guaranteed for 10 years, and our installations are guaranteed for 5 years.

Frequently asked questions about our locksmith in Malakoff

Your situation isn’t listed? Call us and a locksmith will answer.

Do you cover all three neighbourhoods of Malakoff?

Yes. The locksmith leaves from the 16th arrondissement of Paris and comes anywhere in Malakoff: in the Nord, from the porte de Vanves to avenue Pierre-Larousse, in the Centre around the town hall, and in the Sud as far as the fort de Vanves and the boundaries with Clamart and Châtillon. We have no shop: we are the ones who come to you.

How much does a door opening cost in Malakoff?

Door simply slammed shut: €119 incl. VAT during the day. Locked door: €135 for a standard door, €149 for a security door. From 8 pm to midnight, the daytime rate carries a 30% surcharge; after midnight, 50%. On Saturdays and Sundays, you pay the daytime rate. In every case, the price is given before we set off.

I have a workshop or business premises at the back of a courtyard: do you come out?

Yes. Malakoff has many workshops and business premises, especially in the quartier Nord, often on the ground floor of a building or at the back of a porch. We open the door, change the cylinder or fit a sturdier lock. Tell us when you call how to get into the courtyard: the locksmith plans for it before setting off.

The door of my town house still has its original lock: do I need to change everything?

Not necessarily. On a wooden door in good condition, we replace the old lock with an A2P-certified multipoint lock, or we add a security lock. If the wood is worn, a reinforcement or a security door is more suitable. Send us a photo of the door and the lock: the locksmith arrives with the right part.

I live near the Malakoff – Plateau de Vanves metro station, on the Vanves side: do you come out there too?

Yes. The station sits on the boundary between the two towns, between boulevard Charles-de-Gaulle, on the Malakoff side, and rue Jean-Bleuzen, on the Vanves side. We work on both sides, day and night; for an address in Vanves, see our locksmith in Vanves page.

Do you copy security keys?

Yes, for the main brands: Fichet, Picard, Bricard, Vachette… A protected key is only copied on presentation of the card of ownership. Orders are placed online, on our key copies page.
