Burglary prevention
Why investing in good locks pays off
In 2025 the police recorded 21 residential burglaries in the municipality of Noardeast-Fryslân, down from 33 in 2024. Inside the bolwerken of Dokkum stand old houses with wooden frames that were never built for a modern cylinder. In the villages around it, the detached houses with a separate shed are the ones that need attention.
60%
Of all burglaries occur via the front or back door

Why Locksmith Dokkum
Reliable, transparent, and certified
Locksmith was founded out of frustration with an industry full of rogue practices. Too many people paid sky-high bills for unnecessary drilling or waited hours for a technician who didn’t even show up. We do things differently: with a fixed price, certified technicians, and a 2-year warranty on every lock.

After a burglary in Dokkum
Broken into? These are your next steps
In an old house inside the bolwerken a forced door usually takes the frame with it. We repair it so the front still looks right and the lock meets standard again. File the police report and send it on with our itemised invoice to your contents insurer.
Report to the police
Call 0900-8844 or go to the police station. Keep your report number. Your insurer needs this for the claim.

We send the invoice directly by email. This is itemized and meets the requirements of all major insurers.

Have the locks upgraded, often reimbursed too
Many insurers also reimburse the installation of better locks after a burglary. We are happy to advise you on this free of charge.

✅ Locksmith costs after a burglary: almost always 100% reimbursed
