Local knowledge
The whole Gironde, from Bordeaux
Stone échoppes in the city centre, villas on Arcachon Bay, bastide towns of the Libourne area, Médoc estates: every part of the département has its own buildings, locks and solutions.
Bordeaux Métropole
Bordeaux · Mérignac · Pessac · Talence · Lormont · Saint-Médard-en-Jalles
The urban heart of the department: stone apartment buildings, échoppes (traditional single-storey Bordeaux stone houses), recent co-owned buildings and a large rental stock. Most of our call-outs take place here.
Arcachon Bay
Arcachon · La Teste-de-Buch · Gujan-Mestras · Andernos-les-Bains · Biganos
A high proportion of second homes and holiday rentals: keys changing hands, properties left empty out of season, and salt air that wears out mechanisms prematurely.
Libourne area
Libourne · Saint-Émilion · Coutras · Izon
Libourne's bastide market town, wine villages and stone houses: period joinery and old locks are common here.
Médoc
Lesparre-Médoc · Pauillac · Castelnau-de-Médoc · Le Pian-Médoc
Scattered housing and wine estates with outbuildings and wine stores: securing a property often involves several buildings and access points.
South Gironde
Langon · La Réole · Bazas · Podensac
Urban centres set in a rural landscape: driving times need to be anticipated, and travel conditions are stated at the time of the call.
Entre-deux-Mers
Créon · Targon · Sauveterre-de-Guyenne
Gironde stone houses, long farmhouses and bastide villages: solid wood doors with real character, worked on without spoiling them.
Haute Gironde
Blaye · Saint-André-de-Cubzac · Bourg
Old villages along the estuary and a growing commuter belt around Saint-André-de-Cubzac: a mix of older buildings and recent estate housing.

Who we help
Homes and businesses
Homeowners & tenants
Flat, échoppe, house or second home: door opening, cylinder replacement when you move in, securing after a break-in, strengthening your front door. We also liaise with your building’s managing agent when common areas are involved.

Common questions
Your questions, answered
What should I prepare before the locksmith arrives?
Proof that you live in the property (ID, rent receipt, utility bill): it is always requested before a door is opened. If your documents are locked inside, say so on the phone — other forms of proof can be accepted.
Do you really provide a quote before any work?
Yes. For home call-out services this is a legal requirement in France, and it is how we work: the locksmith examines the door, explains what they see and presents a detailed quote. No work starts without your agreement.
Does calling commit me to anything?
No. Calling us or sending the form is simply a contact request. You remain free to accept or decline the quote presented on site.
Do you cover areas outside Bordeaux?
Yes: France Serrure covers the whole Gironde département — the metropolitan area, Arcachon Bay, the Libourne area, the Médoc, South Gironde, Entre-deux-Mers and Haute Gironde. For outlying areas, travel conditions are explained when you call.
Can my insurance cover the intervention?
Some home-insurance policies and bank-card services include locksmith assistance, particularly after a break-in. Check your policy before the visit, and keep the itemised invoice we always provide.
