Car Lockouts Phoenix

Locked your keys in the car? We use professional entry tools that won't scratch paint or damage weather stripping. Works on old cars with manual locks and new cars with advanced security systems.

What we bring:

  • Slim jim tools (older vehicles)
  • Air wedge kits (modern vehicles)
  • Lockout tool sets for tight spaces
  • Professional lock picks when needed

Most lockouts take 5-15 minutes once we arrive. Cost typically runs $75-$125 depending on your vehicle and location.

Don't risk breaking a window. Our tools open car doors safely — same way dealerships and police use.

Locksmith extracting a broken key from a car ignition in Phoenix

Broken Key Extraction

Key snapped off in your ignition or door? Trying to pull it out yourself usually pushes it deeper. We use extraction tools designed to grab broken key pieces without damaging the lock cylinder.

Common situations:

  • Key broke turning in ignition
  • Door lock key snapped from cold metal
  • Trunk key broke from force
  • Worn key finally gave out

After extraction, we cut a new key on-site from your VIN or remaining key piece. Usually takes 20-30 minutes start to finish.

Key stuck or won't turn? Sometimes the key isn't broken — the lock cylinder wore out. We'll check before cutting a new key unnecessarily.

Common Car Locksmith Questions

How fast can you get to me if I'm locked out?

Most central Phoenix areas: 20-30 minutes. East and West Valley suburbs: 30-40 minutes. When you call, dispatch checks where the nearest van is and gives you an actual ETA for your location.

Extreme heat lockouts get prioritized — we know sitting in 115-degree weather is dangerous.

Can you make a key if I lost all my keys?

Yes. We use your VIN (vehicle identification number) to cut a new key from scratch. Bring your registration or title to prove you own the vehicle.

Takes 20-45 minutes to cut and program a working key. Works for most vehicles made after 1990.

Will you damage my car getting in?

No. We use the same professional tools that dealerships and police use — air wedges, slim jims, and specialized lockout kits designed not to scratch paint or damage seals.

If your car has a security system, we know how to work around it without triggering alarms.

How long does ignition repair take?

Depends on the problem:

  • Stuck steering wheel lock: 5-10 minutes
  • Worn ignition cylinder: 30-45 minutes
  • Full ignition replacement: 45-75 minutes

We diagnose the issue first, tell you what it'll cost, then fix it if you approve.

Do you program key fobs and push-to-start keys?

Yes, for most makes and models. We carry programming equipment in every van.

Process: verify ownership, cut the key, connect programmer to your car's OBD port, sync the new key. Takes 20-30 minutes typically.

Some luxury brands (certain BMW, Mercedes, Porsche) need dealer equipment. We'll tell you on the phone whether we can program your specific vehicle.

Can you come to my apartment parking garage or mall?

Yes. We go wherever your car is — parking lots, garages, street parking, apartment complexes, office buildings, grocery stores, stadiums, anywhere.

Gated communities or private property might need you to meet us at the gate or call ahead to give us access.

What payment methods do you accept?

Cash, all major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Amex), and mobile payments. Our techs process cards on-site and give you a receipt.

Business accounts can get invoiced — ask when you call.

Do you service motorcycles and RVs?

Yes. We handle lockouts and key replacement for motorcycles, RVs, trailers, and commercial vehicles. Different vehicles require different tools and techniques — our mobile units carry equipment for all of them.

Do you need my car title to make a key?

We verify ownership before making keys — this protects you from theft. Acceptable documents include registration, title, or insurance card with matching ID. If documents are locked in the car, we can retrieve them during the lockout service.
