Cylinder lock replacement
Then you’ve come to the right place at Slotenmaker Amsterdam. If your door lock is broken, you don’t always have to replace the entire lock. If the front door has a lock with a loose (profile) cylinder, then only the cylinder needs to be replaced. A rim lock with a fixed cylinder, however, must be replaced entirely.
Slotenmaker Amsterdam specializes in installing and replacing cylinder locks. Naturally, we always look for the best solution for you as a customer. Slotenmaker Amsterdam replaces cylinder locks from recognized brands such as Lips, Cisa, Yale, Buva, and Dom. We can ensure that you can open all locks with one key. Ask about the possibilities.

Frequently asked questions
Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about replacing locks and when you need us.
Replacing a cylinder lock is necessary when your key no longer turns smoothly, the lock is worn out, there has been a break-in, your keys are lost or stolen, or when you switch to a safer SKG-certified lock. Replacement is also strongly recommended for new residents.
Yes. In many cases, only the cylinder (the internal mechanism) needs to be replaced. This is faster, more economical, and immediately offers better security. The technician will assess on-site whether full lock replacement is necessary.
On average, this takes 10 to 20 minutes. Our technicians always carry cylinders in various sizes, so replacement can be carried out immediately.
We only install SKG** and SKG*** cylinders, the safest options on the market. These are protected against popular burglary methods such as core pulling, lock picking, drilling, and bump keys.
You don’t need to measure this yourself. Our technician will measure the correct size immediately upon arrival and install a cylinder that perfectly fits your door and lock.
No. Cylinder replacement is completely damage-free. The door and hardware remain intact.
Yes. After replacement, you will receive a new set of keys. The old ones will no longer work, which immediately increases your security — especially with lost, stolen, or potentially copied keys.
Certainly. We can install a cylinder with a certificate. Keys can then only be duplicated with the accompanying card, preventing unwanted copies.
In the event of a break-in or attempted break-in, costs are often reimbursed by your home contents or building insurance. You will receive a clear invoice from us that you can easily submit to your insurer.
Both are possible. You can use our 24/7 emergency service, or choose a scheduled appointment at a time that suits you.
