Understanding your quote
Locksmith Prices in Switzerland
To compare locksmith prices, compare what each quote includes: travel, labour time, parts, VAT and surcharges. Door opening and replacing a lock are different jobs.
One published price example, not a Swiss average
The Serrurier Schweizer price list checked on 14 October 2026 separates a CHF 199 labour fee, covering the first 60 minutes, from CHF 80 travel. These two items total CHF 279 excluding VAT, before any applicable surcharges and parts.
This is one provider’s advertised example. It is not a quote from DevisSerrurier.ch, a market average or an endorsement. Check the provider’s current terms before booking.
Why two quotes may differ
Explain whether the door has simply closed, locks automatically, contains a broken key or has a damaged mechanism. The professional needs this information to assess the work.
Included labour time, the appointment time and supplied parts also affect the total. A labour-only advertised price is not directly comparable with a quote that includes travel.
Five items to compare in a quote
- Travel: included or charged separately, and the covered area.
- Labour: fixed fee, included time and additional time charges.
- Parts: exact model, number of keys and fitting cost.
- Surcharges: working hours, urgency and conditions that change the price.
- Total payable: whether VAT is included, payment method and invoice.
Ask for written confirmation for your situation. If the diagnosis changes on site, ask the professional to explain any additional work and its price before agreeing.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a reliable nationwide average?
We do not have a representative survey establishing a Swiss average. The cited example is one provider’s public price; request a quote for your case.
Is travel included?
Check the quote. Ask for the travel charge and whether it is already included in the total.
What does a night call-out cost?
Surcharges and time bands vary by provider. Ask for the total for the intended appointment time.
