Your insurer will ask for it. 4. **Make it lock** Ring us. The door is made secure the same day so you can stay or leave. ## Today: a door that locks A forced cylinder is replaced, a split keep refitted, a bent bolt freed. If the frame is too damaged for a lasting repair that day, the door is made secure for now and the proper repair planned. The old cylinder is left with you, in case the insurer wants to see it. ## Next week: a stronger door - High-security cylinders that resist snapping, drilling and bumping. - Protective plates over the cylinder on exposed doors. - Extra bolts or a better keep on doors that flex. - The same cylinder on several doors, so one key opens them all. ## What changes the job here - **Since 1968** Old Villena has been a protected historic ensemble. A stronger lock can go into an old timber door without replacing the door or changing the street. - **15 pedanías** Plus five other towns, with houses empty for months. Securing a campo house means every door, store and padlock, not just the one that was forced. - **500,000 m²** Of industrial estate at El Rubial alone. A unit broken into at night is made to lock again before staff arrive. ## Where this applies Homes, campo houses and premises across Villena and [the Alto Vinalopó towns we cover](https://locksmithvillena.es/coverage/).

Photograph the door, the lock and any marks first, then report it. If you cannot stay in a house that will not lock, tell the police, and we make it secure once they agree. ### Will my insurer pay for the repair? That depends on your policy, not on us. What helps any claim is the police report, photographs taken before the repair and the damaged parts, which we leave with you. ### What does a high-security cylinder add over a normal one? Resistance to snapping, drilling, picking and bumping, and keys that cannot be copied without a card. It is the cheapest real upgrade on most doors, and it fits the lock you already have. ### They broke in through the back door of our campo house. Can you secure the whole place? Yes. We secure the door that was forced, then go round every other way in: doors, stores, gates and padlocks. Bars and grilles are a metalworker’s job; we change and upgrade the locks on them. ## Making the rest of the place secure - [changing the cylinder Locks & cylinders · planned work](https://locksmithvillena.es/lock-change-villena/) - [shop and office locks Shops, offices & units · any business door](https://locksmithvillena.es/commercial-locksmith-villena/) - [a door opened without forcing it Opening doors · homes of every age](https://locksmithvillena.es/door-opening-villena/) ## Found the door forced?
