First, stay calm and find a safe location to wait, especially if you’re on a busy road or in an unfamiliar area. If there’s a child or pet locked inside the vehicle, contact emergency services immediately – this is a life-threatening emergency that requires immediate response. Otherwise, avoid attempting to unlock the car yourself, as this can cause expensive damage or trigger security systems. If your device is locked inside, ask someone nearby to borrow theirs or find a business where you can wait comfortably. We’ll keep you updated on our arrival time and contact you if there are any changes.
Yes, we can often create spare keys on-site during your lockout service visit. Our mobile units carry key cutting and programming equipment for most vehicle types. This is especially helpful if you’ve lost your only key or want to prevent future lockout situations. We can also rekey locks, replace damaged keys, or program new key fobs if needed. These additional services are optional and priced separately from the basic lockout service. We’ll discuss your options and provide pricing before performing any extra work, so you can decide what makes sense for your situation.
