They will then send a lockout professional who has the training and skill to get into your vehicle and retrieve your keys without damaging the vehicle. If you are located within the city limits and are not somewhere remote, help should be able to get to you within the hour.

If your car is parked in a dark or isolated area, find a nearby public space where you can wait for the lockout service to arrive. If the weather is bad outside, find some cover. Call the towing company and let them know where you are so they can locate you when they get to where your vehicle is.

If you think you are in danger, call 911 and see if a dispatch unit can be sent to your location.

Although they may know tricks for getting into a locked out vehicle, this does not mean they will be able to get into your vehicle without causing any damage. If they cause damage to your vehicle, you are responsible for the damage.

Wait for a trained professional to arrive who will be able to get you back into your vehicle without causing additional damage along the way.

When you take your keys out of the ignition, have one place where you always put your keys. For example, you could immediately put your keys inside of your purse or in your pocket, or you could clip them to your clothing. Developing this habit will help you stop the lockout cycle you are in.

You can also make sure a friend or family member who you trust has an extra copy of your keys. That way, if you get locked out in the future, you can call them to bring the spare set of keys and let you into your vehicle. You should always open your car with a set of keys if possible.

We know the importance of speed in these stressful situations, so we will get to your location as fast as we can and get your keys out of the vehicle without damaging it. We look forward to speaking with you.
