Whether you are stuck in an unfamiliar location or at your place of work, calling a locksmith is your best bet. The other options present a number of problems. Hence, it is best to consider the consequences of the not using a locksmith.

Some people try to “pop” their vehicle lock themselves only to wish they hadn’t once the damage is done. Using an opened wire hanger, a metal piece, or another on-hand option can easily damage your vehicle. In fact, it is always cheaper to call me than to fix damage to your car window or door jam.

Leave Your Vehicle?

Leaving your vehicle behind is an option some consider when they are in jam or have a spare key somewhere else. If the trip to your spare key is quick, this is a pretty good option (especially if your vehicle is in a relatively safe place). However, if leaving your car behind means going away for quite some time you may want to reconsider for two reasons.

If any potential thieves observe that your keys are locked in your vehicle, your vehicle will be easy to steal.

If your vehicle is in an illegal parking area, it could result in a trip to a towing storage facility.
