Your project in the canton of Graubünden
Switzerland's largest canton, Graubünden brings together alpine valleys, renowned resorts and three languages: German, Romansh and Italian. Chur, the capital, has a lively old town and expanding residential districts. Davos, St. Moritz, Arosa and Klosters are home to chalets, second homes and hotels, often at high altitude. In the Lower Engadine, Scuol is surrounded by Engadine houses with thick walls decorated with sgraffito, while Poschiavo, in the south, is Italian-speaking. In the mountains, snow, pass roads and a short building season mean that outdoor work must be planned carefully. Whatever the valley, you can write your request in English. For a traditional house or visible work in a village, it is advisable to contact the municipality first. Give the municipality and postcode, when the property is accessible and any mountain road or transport restrictions.
- For a chalet at altitude, explain winter access and when the work could take place.
- For a second home, state when you will be there and who can let tradespeople in.
- For an Engadine house with thick walls, attach photos of the façades and openings.
Locksmith and metalwork in the canton of Graubünden
In the canton of Graubünden, locksmith work must contend with altitude, cold and a large number of second homes. In St. Moritz and the neighbouring resorts, holiday flats that stand empty for part of the year are readily fitted with reinforced doors, code locks and systems for managing seasonal tenants' access. Engadine houses with thick walls and arched doors require careful adaptation of old fittings. In Chur, apartment buildings more often order cylinders, postal lockers and underground garage doors. Frost and road salt put gates, grilles and railings to a severe test, so they should be protected against rust.
- For a holiday flat, an electronic lock lets you deactivate a badge without having to change the whole lock.
- On an Engadine house, have the municipality confirm that a historic front door may be replaced.

Frequently asked questions
How should I choose a new lock in Graubünden?
Consider the level of security you need, for example a security cylinder with a key card or a multipoint lock. Check that the new cylinder fits your door and existing hardware. The locksmith can advise you and check whether your insurer has specific requirements.
Can a new cylinder be fitted to an existing door?
Cylinder dimensions, the lock body and the door's fittings affect compatibility. Describe the existing arrangement and provide photographs without showing key codes. Ask the locksmith to inspect the door and intended security function before choosing a replacement cylinder or complete locking system.
What should I compare in locksmith and metalworker quotes?
Compare locks, cylinders, handles and any metal fabrication against the same specification. Check fitting, adjustment and supplied keys, and clarify whether access-control work is included. Ask how the proposed hardware is compatible with the retained door and any shared building system.
How should I prepare for the locksmith and metalworker visit or work?
Keep the work area clear and arrange for an authorised occupant to attend. Share existing hardware information privately, without publishing key or access codes. For shared entrances, agree permissions and access arrangements with the property representative before modifications are authorised.
