How do you find a locksmith in Amsterdam?

Finding a locksmith in Amsterdam takes one message to ツamsterdam. You get one name back.

Since 1 September 3 requests for a locksmith came in and ツamsterdam named someone 5 times. All three in October. That is not many, and with locksmiths that is good news.

Asking costs nothing. Nothing to download, no account. Who gets named is not for sale.

A name given 5 times, for 3 requests.

Who gets named is not for sale. Sorry.

Why Amsterdam needed a locksmith

The first was standing outside: locked out, the door had to be opened without a key. Two people were named for that. The second wanted a lock replaced, two names again. The third was looking for a locksmith near IJburg.

That is all there is. It does show the difference between hurry and no hurry. If you are standing outside you want someone now. If you are replacing a lock you can pick a day. Say which of the two you are.

What to put in your message for a locksmith

Say whether you are outside or inside. Say which door it is, the shared front door downstairs or your own door upstairs, and what kind of lock is on it if you know. A photo of the lock helps.

A message that works: Hi ツamsterdam, I'm looking for a locksmith, I am locked out, my own front door on the second floor, cylinder lock, key is inside. Ask the locksmith for the price before he comes. With this job that is not a rude question.

You message. ツamsterdam names one person. You say yes. Or no. How the market group works.

What does a locksmith cost in Amsterdam?

Asking costs nothing.

You agree and pay directly. ツamsterdam adds nothing on top.

I am outside right now. Is messaging not too slow?

Of the requests that got a name, two out of three had it within the hour. Put in your message that you are locked out.

How do I know the price is fair?

Ask him beforehand, on the phone. ツamsterdam gives a name and not an amount, and adds nothing on top.

Just a lock replaced, no hurry?

Yes. That has been asked for. Say which lock and when it suits you.
