Car Lockouts We Solve
Car lockouts happen in seconds. Here is what our technicians handle most often around New York.
Keys locked in the car
The most common call. We open the door with professional tools that don't harm the weather stripping or paint.
Keys locked in the trunk
We open the car and release the trunk, including on cars with no exterior trunk lock.
Smart key fob inside a running car
Push-to-start cars that locked with the fob inside, even with the engine still running.
Dead fob or dead battery
Doors won't unlock because the fob or car battery died. We get you in and help with the fob.
Lost keys and locked car
We open the car and can make a new key on the spot with our car key service.
Child or pet locked inside
Call immediately and say so. We treat it as top priority; if there's danger, call 911 first.

Main service areas
Will opening my car damage it?
No. We use professional lockout tools designed for modern cars, so the door, window, paint and weather stripping are not damaged.
How long does a car lockout take?
Once the technician arrives, most cars are open in a few minutes. Our average arrival time is about 20 minutes.
Do you need proof that I own the car?
Yes. We ask for ID and the registration or insurance card (often in the glovebox, which we check after opening) before handing the car back.
Can you open luxury and newer cars?
Yes. We open most makes and models, including BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Lexus and newer push-to-start vehicles.
What if I lost my keys, not just locked them in?
We can open the car and cut and program a new key on site. Prices for car keys vary by make, model and year.
