Locked your keys in the car?

GTA Lockman Mobile Locksmith Services opens cars, SUVs, trucks and vans for owners who have locked their keys inside, across Toronto and the GTA. We come to where the vehicle is parked, whether that is your driveway, a workplace lot or a plaza.

Before opening a vehicle we confirm that you own it or have the owner's permission. Have your identification ready, and if the ownership papers are inside the vehicle, the technician explains how that is checked once the door is open. See proof of authorization.

How a car is opened

Get car lockout help →

Most vehicles can be opened without damage using tools made for the purpose. The method depends on the make, the model year and the security system. Newer vehicles with advanced alarms or shielded door frames can take longer, and the technician tells you what to expect before starting.

Do not try a coat hanger or a slim tool from the internet on a modern car. Door panels hold airbag wiring, window regulators and locking rods that are easy to damage.

03

When the keys are lost, not locked in

01

If the keys are lost or broken rather than locked inside, opening the door does not solve the problem. In that case a new key needs to be cut and programmed. See car key replacement and car key types explained.

Trunks, motorcycles and other vehicles

We also open trunks where the key is locked inside, and help with motorcycle locks and ignition problems. For larger vehicles such as trucks, RVs and motorhomes, call and describe the vehicle so we can confirm.

05

Can the police unlock my car?

Police generally do not unlock cars unless there is a safety emergency, such as a child or pet locked inside on a hot day. In that case call 911 first. For an ordinary lockout, a locksmith is the right call.

06

What to have ready when you call

Call (647) 955-3277 →
  • The vehicle's make, model, year and colour
  • Exactly where it is parked, including the level and spot number in a parking garage
  • Whether the engine is running or the alarm is going off
  • Identification that links you to the vehicle

If a child or a pet is locked inside, call 911 first.

07

Preventing the next car lockout

01

Keep a spare key somewhere you can reach it, such as at home or with a family member, not hidden on the car. If your vehicle uses a fob, replace the battery when the range starts to drop, before it fails. If you are down to one key, a spare costs far less than replacing a lost key. See spare keys and duplication.

08

Booking a visit for a car lockout

Call (647) 955-3277 or use the contact form and tell us the address and the vehicle and where it is parked. We confirm the price and give you an arrival estimate before booking, and the technician explains the work on site before starting.

Questions about car lockout service in Toronto & the GTA

Most cars are opened without damage using tools made for the purpose. The technician explains the method before starting.

Will opening my car damage it?

Most cars are opened without damage using tools made for the purpose. The technician explains the method before starting.

What do I need to show before you open the car?

Identification that links you to the vehicle, or confirmation from the owner. If the papers are inside, the technician explains how that is checked once the door is open.

How long does it take to open a car?

Most standard lockouts do not take long once the technician arrives. Vehicles with advanced security can take longer.

Can you open the trunk if my keys are inside it?

Yes, in most cases.

My key fob battery died and the car will not open. Can you help?

Yes. Many fobs have a hidden mechanical key, and we can open the car and replace the battery or check the fob.

I lost my only key. Can you still help?

Yes. That needs a new key cut and programmed rather than a lockout service. See our car key replacement page.

Do you open trucks and vans?

Yes. For larger vehicles such as RVs and motorhomes, call and describe the vehicle first.

When are you open?

Monday to Thursday 8:30 AM to 9:00 PM, Friday 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM and Sunday 9:30 AM to 9:00 PM. We are closed on Saturday.
