Local knowledge
The whole Rhône
Canut weavers’ buildings on the slopes of the Croix-Rousse, galleried courtyards in Vieux Lyon, post-war co-owned blocks in the eastern suburbs, golden-stone houses in the Beaujolais: every area has its own buildings, locks and solutions.
Lyon and the Presqu’île
Lyon 1er · Lyon 2e · Lyon 5e · Lyon 6e · Confluence
The World Heritage old town: Renaissance galleried courtyards, traboules (covered passages cutting through a block, most closed by a keypad), canut weavers’ buildings with oversized doors and monumental carriage entrances.
Eastern Lyon
Villeurbanne · Bron · Vaulx-en-Velin · Décines-Charpieu · Meyzieu
Large post-war co-owned blocks, residences with communal access control and a dense rental stock: cylinder replacement between occupants is the everyday job here.
South-east and the Vallée de la Chimie
Vénissieux · Saint-Priest · Corbas · Feyzin · Saint-Fons
Apartment housing on a large scale alongside business parks: flats in managed residences, but also commercial premises whose closures fall outside domestic locksmithing.
Western Lyon and the Monts d’Or
Écully · Tassin-la-Demi-Lune · Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon · Limonest · Saint-Didier-au-Mont-d’Or
Substantial houses in walled grounds, motorised gates and steep private tracks: the way in is often settled well before the front door.
Val de Saône and the north
Caluire-et-Cuire · Rillieux-la-Pape · Neuville-sur-Saône · Genay
Old villages along the Saône and renewed housing estates up on the plateau: two opposite kinds of building a few minutes apart.
Southern Lyon and the Rhône valley
Oullins-Pierre-Bénite · Saint-Genis-Laval · Givors · Vernaison · Irigny
Former industrial villages along the river, terraced townhouses and recent estates on the slopes above them.
Beaujolais and the northern Val de Saône
Villefranche-sur-Saône · Gleizé · Anse · Belleville-en-Beaujolais
Golden-stone houses, farmsteads and wine villages: old solid-timber joinery, often original, and several outbuildings to secure alongside the house.

Who we help
Homes and businesses
Homeowners & tenants
Flat, canut weavers’ building or house: 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.
Businesses
Shops, offices, property managers and landlords: master key systems, lock changes between tenants, securing premises, reinforced closures and interventions coordinated with your teams.
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 Lyon?
Yes: France Serrure covers the whole Rhône — greater Lyon, eastern Lyon, the Monts d’Or, the Val de Saône, southern Lyon and the Beaujolais. 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.
