Locksmith in La Siesta (Torrevieja)

La Siesta lies inland, on the west side of Torrevieja, between the town and the Laguna Rosa, about four kilometres from the centre. It borders El Chaparral, and in practice the two work as a single area. It was built decades ago and is fully established.

Bungalows and neighbours from all over Europe

The typical home in La Siesta is the single-storey bungalow in low rows: the lower one with its little garden, the upper one with an outside staircase and a solarium on the roof, with no lift. Small communal pools are shared between groups of houses. There are also small townhouses and the odd house on its own plot.

It is one of the most international areas of Torrevieja. It is known for its Scandinavian community, and on the same street it is normal to find British, Nordic, Dutch and Spanish neighbours. Many people live here all year round, and in winter the area is livelier than many coastal urbanisations.

What we are asked for in La Siesta

Shutters on the lower bungalow

The ground-floor bungalow has its windows at the level of the garden and the community walkway. If the owner spends a season back home, the house is left empty with the shutters down. Shutter reinforcement means they cannot be lifted or bent: a steel T-profile under the bottom slat and bolts that lock into the wall.

Cylinders in older houses

Many doors still have old cylinders. Some jam, others can be opened with simple techniques. Switching to high-security cylinders is a quick job that makes a real difference.

Help in your language

If you do not speak Spanish fluently, explaining a fault over the phone is tricky. Message us on WhatsApp in your language and send us a photo: that way we understand the problem before we come out. We explain it under foreign residents.

Trust above all

In an area with so many residents who spend months away, before opening a door we always check that the person asking has the right to get in. A fixed quote before we start and payment by card, Bizum or cash.
