Locksmith in the canton of Zug
By area, the canton of Zug is one of the smallest in Switzerland, yet it is surprisingly varied. The cantonal capital and Walchwil lie on Lake Zug, the Ennetsee municipalities of Cham, Hünenberg and Risch with Rotkreuz on the western shore, and Baar and Steinhausen on the Lorze plain. To the east the land rises towards the Zugerberg and the hill municipalities of Menzingen and Neuheim, and beyond them lies the Ägerital with Unterägeri and Oberägeri on Lake Ägeri. Company headquarters, business parks, residential areas and farmland are often only a few kilometres apart.
These short distances work in your favour in an emergency. Because our technicians are based in the region, they usually reach the towns on the valley floor within 20 to 30 minutes; for farms in the hill municipalities or remote hamlets we tell you the travel time on the phone. First we check your entitlement, then you learn the price, and only then does the work begin.
Doors and locks in the canton of Zug
Across the canton, many new housing developments have been built in recent decades, for example in Rotkreuz, Steinhausen and Cham, mostly with a master key system, security cylinders and an intercom. Former industrial sites along the Lorze have been and are still being converted into residential and business districts. In the village centres of Menzingen, Neuheim or Oberägeri, by contrast, there are older houses with wooden doors and mortice locks, surrounded by farms with barns and outbuildings. For commercial buildings we agree with the person in charge before opening, and for master key systems in rented buildings with the property management, which decides on replacement keys and cylinders.
Service area in the canton of Zug
As well as the main villages, some of which have their own page, we also go to the smaller localities: Allenwinden, Inwil and Blickensdorf in the municipality of Baar, Hagendorn, Niederwil and Lindencham near Cham, Holzhäusern and Buonas in the municipality of Risch, Edlibach and Finstersee above Menzingen, and Alosen and Morgarten in the Ägerital. The farms on the Zugerberg and the Zug side of Sihlbrugg are included too, as are individual hamlets away from the main roads. We tell you when you call how long the journey to your address will take.
Between Lake Zug, the Lorze and the Ägerital
In a small area the canton of Zug combines lakeshore, valley floor and Pre-Alps. The town of Zug with its old town lies on the north-eastern shore of the lake and forms one continuous built-up area with Baar and Steinhausen. On the Ennetsee side Cham, Hünenberg and Rotkreuz are growing, while higher up the Ägerital holds Lake Ägeri and the historic site of Morgarten. Typical call-outs:
- A flat door swung shut in a new development in Rotkreuz or Steinhausen
- Keys lost while swimming or walking by the lake
- An office or shop door in Zug or Baar that will not open early in the morning
- A sticking lock on an older house in one of the hill municipalities
Living and working in the canton of Zug
The canton of Zug is home to many internationally active companies, and people from all over the world live here. Many are new arrivals, often in rented flats with a master key system. On top of that, many commuters travel by S-Bahn to Zurich and Lucerne. For us this means frequent call-outs in modern buildings with security cylinders, where good coordination with the property management matters.
Through the seasons
On the plain the distances are short, but the roads up to Menzingen, Neuheim and the Ägerital are winding, and in winter there may be snow up there while it only rains by the lake. In summer the lakeshores and bathing spots are busy and traffic picks up at weekends. We take this into account and give you an honest arrival time.
