Burglary prevention
Why investing in good locks pays off
In 2025 the police registered 102 residential burglaries in the municipality of Hengelo, all but level with the 103 of 2024. Around the old works sites stand whole neighbourhoods of workers housing whose backs give onto an alley or footpath. Such a path lies out of view, and the lightest lock in the house tends to hang there.
60%
Of all burglaries occur via the front or back door

Why Locksmith Hengelo
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 Hengelo
Broken into? These are your next steps
In Hengelo the damage after a break-in usually runs through the back: a forced door, a broken frame. Our technician closes that first. You file the report with the police afterwards, and with our itemised invoice a contents insurer normally gives you the money back.
Report to the police
Call 0900-8844 or go to the police station. Keep your report number. Your insurer needs this for the claim.
1
Call Locksmith for an emergency closure
Call us. We are available 24/7 and safely secure your home the same day (or night).
2
Send our invoice to your insurance
We send the invoice directly by email. This is itemized and meets the requirements of all major insurers.
3
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.
4
✅ Locksmith costs after a burglary: almost always 100% reimbursed
Always keep both the police report and our invoice. Without either of these, the insurer can deny the claim. In doubt? Contact your insurer.
