Why does the cost of emergency opening differ from car to car?

The client's name has been changed.

Let's call the client Oscar. A friend's car was opened for the same price. When a similar situation happened with his car, the cost turned out to be different.

A natural question arose:

“Why is the price different for the same service?”

Because “open a car” is the name of the result, and not a description of the same work.

Different cars have different access systems

Labor intensity can be influenced by:

• brand;
• model;
• year;
• lock design;
• condition of the mechanism;
• additional locking systems.

The technical status of the car is very important

One situation:

• serviceable car;
• the key just ended up inside.

Other:

• the mechanical cylinder has not been used for many years;
• corrosion inside;
• The central system is unstable.

These are already different tasks.

Time of day can also influence

Night or urgent work may be charged differently than scheduled day work. Therefore, it is better to check the price in advance.

What helps you get a preliminary estimate

Please report:

• brand;
• model;
• year;
• where are the keys;
• what exactly is blocked.
