What To Do When Locked Out

The first thing that we suggest that you do is contact a locksmith. Faulty locks can create problems that you can’t even imagine. You can prevent problems with lockouts by knowing exactly what you will do when and if you are faced with this situation. Even if you don’t think this could happen to you, it doesn’t hurt to at least be prepared for whatever could occur. It simply means that you are being responsible.

When you are locked out of your home we recommend you do the following:

• Make sure that there is no other way inside
• Never try to break in because you could harm yourself and give others the idea that they can do the same when you are not around
• Contact a locksmith to help you gain access inside

When you are locked out of your vehicle we recommend you do the following:

• Contact a locksmith and let them know the exact reason why you are locked out
• Never break a window, you’ll only need to have the window replaced
• Call a locksmith and not an auto mechanic. A locksmith can come to your location to help you gain access again
• If the problem involves your transponder key then let the locksmith know so that they can bring the necessary equipment needed to reprogram the key

You might think that you should have your vehicle towed to your auto mechanic or to a dealership but this is not true. All that you have to do is give our locksmiths a call and they can help with any of your lockout needs. Regardless of where you are locked out, you can be sure that one of our locksmiths will be able to help you gain access inside again.

It can be far more expensive to have your vehicle towed when you need to gain access back inside. The wise thing to do is contact a 24-hour locksmith who can come to wherever you are to administer the help that you need. This will be far less expensive than having the vehicle towed and then paying for the services that they offer to get you inside again. If necessary, the locksmith can also help you replace damaged locks, fix security features, or rekey damaged locks.
