The price index consists of cited public price lists per unit of service (PLN); customer reviews show amounts for entire jobs submitted via the ‘How much did you pay?’ form, with three verification levels (how we verify them); company price lists contain prices entered by the companies themselves.

Door lock replacement: how prices have changed
Year-on-year changes in the prices of the same items in the price lists of the same companies. We obtain historical prices from archived versions of company websites (Internet Archive), each accompanied by a verbatim quotation. How we calculate.
| Year | Year-on-year change | Items | Price increase / decrease |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 → 2021 | 0% | 4 | 0 / 0 |
| 2025 → 2026 | 0% | 3 | 0 / 0 |
What affects the price
- type of lock/cylinder: standard, certified or electronic
- burglary resistance class (e.g. class C) increases the price
- city: rates can be higher in larger cities (Kraków, Poznań) than, for example, in Gdańsk
- whether the price includes the lock/cylinder itself or labour only
- completion time: in Poznań, replacement at weekends and in the evenings is more expensive
Usually included in the price
- the tradesperson's travel
- a new lock or lock cylinder
- replacement labour
Many companies include the lock/cylinder and travel costs in the price; it is worth asking whether the quoted rate covers labour only.
Prices from customers and companies
Two types of entries: customers state how much they paid for the entire job and rate the contractor; service providers enter their price lists. Customer entries have three reliability levels: ✓ verified: invoice or receipt (the editorial team has seen a document matching the entry), ✓ verified: declaration (the author confirmed the entry using a link sent by e-mail) and unverified (how we verify entries); we do not verify company price lists. Price lists entered by companies are not included in the median at the top of the page; customer amounts are included only for services priced as a complete service.
