What to do when you lock your keys in the car

Getting locked out of your car is a real pain. Especially as it nearly always happens when you’re in a rush. Whether it’s because you’ve locked the keys in, you’ve lost your keys or your keys are damaged, We have some tips to get back into the cars . Here are some tips from The Colony Locksmith on what to do when you find yourself locked out of your car.

1. Stay calm – the world doesn’t usually end if you’re late. If you’re running late, call ahead and advise of your situation.
2. Do a quick lap around the car. Often you may find that a window is down or a door (of the boot) may be unlocked.
3. If accessible, consult your owner’s manual. Some cars often include a metal key hidden in a key less remote. Many manuals can be found online if yours is locked in the car.
4. Consider your spare keys. Do you have a spare handy or does a friend or family member have a spare that you can access? If so, give them a call.
5. Consider your situation. Is it an emergency or can you use alternate transport and worry about the car later?
6. If a child or pet is locked in the car, your request will immediately be prioritized by the The Colony Locksmith, In this case, call US immediately at (214)447-0640
7. As a last resort, call the police or smash a window. Before you smash any window, a handy tip: call your manufacturer and ask which window is the cheapest to replace and if it is in stock. This will help you to decide which window to break.
8. If you lost a key, get another made ASAP. If you lose all your keys, replacements can be very costly.
