What do drivers ask about car lockout service?

How much does a car lockout cost in Orlando?

A standard lockout call is quoted before the truck rolls. Locksmiths in the Orlando area often charge significantly more for the same service, with an after-hours upcharge on top. The rate here is quoted the same way at any point in the dispatch day, with no after-hours upcharge tacked on.

Are tow companies allowed to unlock cars?

Yes - it is a routine roadside service in Florida. The driver verifies ownership (driver license and registration or a clear vehicle-to-driver match) before opening any door. No lock picking, no key duplication, and no work on a car where ownership is unclear. An abandoned-vehicle situation follows the standard local recovery procedure instead.

What if I have a push-button-start car?

The door still opens. Push-button-start vehicles use a key fob that has to be inside the car for the car to start, but the door lock itself is mechanical or uses a passive entry sensor. Either way, long-reach tools get it open. Once the door is open, you grab the fob and start the car normally.

Can you make me a new key?

No. This is door opening, not key programming. If your key is lost, broken, or stolen, the right call is an automotive locksmith or your dealer. The door can be opened so you can reach your spare, but if there is no spare, a locksmith is the next call.

What if a child or pet is locked in the car?

Call 911 first. Local police and fire will break a window if a child or pet is in danger from heat or distress, and Florida heat makes that danger real fast. Once first responders are on scene, call us as a non-destructive backup - a driver may get there in time to open the door without breaking a window. Never wait on that if a child is in immediate danger.

Will you damage my car?

Professional automotive lockout tools are designed not to damage paint, weatherstripping, or door electronics. In rare cases an air-wedge can leave a faint mark on weatherstripping that wipes off. Done with the right tools by someone who does it daily, damage is very unusual.
