I NEED HELP WITH KEYS LOCKED IN MY CAR OR VAN
Need assistance with keys locked in your car or van, call 07714 091707
For situations where your car keys are locked in your vehicle, or the vehicle has locked itself with your keys in the ignition, we can assist. Master Auto Locksmith operate a mobile service in Portsmouth and Hampshire, to gain access to your vehicle. Older vehicles can take longer to get into if door locks are partially seized or heavily worn. Typically, but not exclusively, there are 3 ways to address this situation.
- For keys locked in your car or van, it may be possible for us to order the mechanical key code for the vehicle. Once we have the code we can cut a key, arrive on-site and open a door on the vehicle to retrieve your car/van keys or remote. Proof of vehicle ownership may be required to acquire your key code, which usually consists of your V5 registration document for your vehicle, your driving license and a recent utility bill.
If it is not possible to acquire the key code for your vehicle:
- A non-destructive lockpick can be used to pick the vehicle door lock to gain access. Once the lock is picked, we decode the key bittings – or key number from the lockpick, from which we can cut a key to open the vehicle, on-site. The older the vehicle, the more likely it is that the vehicle has worn or partially seized locks – particularly if the remote has been used to operate the central locking and the door lock has not been used. In these scenarios the lock can take longer to pick and decode.
If a door lock is completely seized due to lack of use, or broken:
- Rods and airbags can be implemented to exploit a gap in the door so that the interior of the vehicle can be reached. Once inside we can touch an unlock button, press a button on the remote, wind a window down, flip a door handle, lift the keys out of the vehicle or other methods.
