How much does a locksmith cost in Brussels?
The price depends on three factors: the type of issue (simple opening vs. break-in), the time of day (day, evening, night) and the hardware replaced (standard cylinder or high-security cylinder). At VanDirk, we publish our price ranges so you can compare with confidence.
Observed price ranges in Brussels (2026)
- Slammed-door opening (day): €80 to €150
- Locked-door opening (day): €120 to €220
- Standard cylinder replacement: €90 to €180 excl. part
- Anti-burglary cylinder SKG** / A2P: €180 to €320 part + fitting
- Night call-out (10pm-6am): 30 to 50% surcharge
Pitfalls to avoid
Be wary of "opening from €49" ads. These hooks often hide travel fees, hourly supplements and parts billed at triple price. Always check: a Belgian VAT number (BE0…), a written quote before work starts, and a traceable payment method (Bancontact, invoice).
Why our prices are transparent
We operate from Ixelles with an in-house team — no subcontracting or commissions. Quotes are always fixed, communicated upfront, and invoiced with VAT. Also see our FAQ or request a free quote.
