Locksmith in the canton of Neuchâtel
The canton of Neuchâtel rises in steps from the lake to the ridges of the Jura. Since 2018 it has been organised into four regions: the Littoral, the Val-de-Ruz, the Val-de-Travers and the Neuchâtel Mountains, where La Chaux-de-Fonds and Le Locle grew up with the watchmaking industry. Winter looks different from one region to the next: fairly mild by the lake, harsh in the La Brévine valley, often cited as one of the coldest places in Switzerland.
You can call us at any hour, 365 days a year. Our technicians are based in the region and usually reach towns and villages within 20 to 30 minutes. For the higher parts of the canton, the Jura valleys or an isolated farm the journey is longer, and we give you a realistic arrival time on the phone. Before any opening, your entitlement is checked and the price is stated. Payment is in cash, by card, with TWINT or on invoice.
Doors and locks in the canton of Neuchâtel
The canton has strikingly varied buildings. In the wine villages of the Littoral, such as Auvernier, Cortaillod or Cressier, old winegrowers' houses with wooden doors stand beside owner-occupied flats and newer detached houses. In the Mountains, the watchmakers' town planning has left many older rented blocks whose entrance doors have seen several generations of locks. In the Val-de-Ruz, the Val-de-Travers and the uplands, large Neuchâtel farmhouses have often been converted into several homes, each with its own entrance. Before opening, the technician examines the door and cylinder and then states the price.
Service area in the canton of Neuchâtel
We work throughout the canton, including places without a page of their own. In the Entre-deux-Lacs: Le Landeron, Cressier, Cornaux and Marin. In the Béroche: Bevaix, Saint-Aubin and Gorgier. In the Val-de-Ruz: Cernier, Fontainemelon, Dombresson and Les Geneveys-sur-Coffrane. In the Val-de-Travers: Fleurier, Couvet, Môtiers, Travers, Noiraigue, Les Verrières and La Côte-aux-Fées. In the Mountains: Les Brenets, La Sagne, Les Ponts-de-Martel, La Brévine and Les Planchettes. These places far from the Littoral sometimes mean a longer journey, which we tell you honestly on the phone.
Between the lake and the Jura ridges
On the shore of Lake Neuchâtel, the largest lake lying entirely within Switzerland, are the city of Neuchâtel and the wine villages of the Littoral. Behind them the land rises quickly: over the Vue des Alpes pass or through the road tunnel you reach La Chaux-de-Fonds and Le Locle.
The Val-de-Ruz is rural, while the Val-de-Travers is known for the Creux du Van and its absinthe tradition. In the far north, the Doubs forms the border with France at Les Brenets.
Watchmaking towns and Jura farmhouses
La Chaux-de-Fonds and Le Locle are UNESCO World Heritage Sites thanks to their watchmaking town planning. Their long rows of buildings, with flats and former workshops, have many old doors and entrances that we handle with care.
In the countryside, broad Jura farmhouses are often divided into several homes. By the lake, winegrowers' houses stand alongside newer developments with master key systems.
Winter, commuters and the border
In the Mountains there is plenty of snow in winter, and the roads between the valleys can be icy. Every day many people commute between the Littoral and the Mountains, and numerous cross-border workers come from France to work in watchmaking.
This traffic and the weather affect our journey. That is why we tell you honestly on the phone when the technician can be with you.
