What to Do When You're Locked Out of Your Car on the Gold Coast

Locked out of your business, home or car? Here is how emergency locksmiths can help and how much you’re likely to pay.

How can we help?

It can happen to the best of us, and at some point it probably will: you park your car and accidentally lock your keys inside. Or you try to open your car door and a key breaks off in the lock. Maybe you’re a truck driver with a tight deadline to meet, and a quick stop at a service station turns into a disaster. You need to take action, but you realise you don’t know what to do when you’re locked out of your car on the Gold Coast.

Locking your keys in your car is a frightening experience, especially if it’s late at night or you’re in an unfamiliar place. Do you call roadside assist, try to reach a family member with a spare key, or attempt to force your own way in? Maybe you take the DIY approach and try to tackle the issue yourself with a string, fishing line, coat hanger or strong piece of plastic?

Here’s the Express Locksmith guide to how to stay safe when you’re locked out of your car on the Gold Coast, and what to do next.

What to do when you’re locked out of your car

 Locked out of your car on the Gold Coast? It happens, and it’s not the end of the world. Here’s how you can stay safe while you wait for help to arrive.

Check the other entrances

It may sound obvious, but sometimes an unlocked boot or open window can help you regain access to your vehicle.

Stay calm

Don’t panic. There’s no need to break a window to retrieve your keys when there are other options for assistance available.

Stay safe

If you’re on the side of the road, stay well away from the road while you wait for help. Avoid distracting passing drivers as doing so can result in a collision. Make sure you’re out of the path of other hazards. Trust your instincts – be cautious about expecting any help from strangers.

Use your phone

Call or text a partner, close friend or family member and let them know where you are.

 How 24/7 emergency automotive locksmiths can help

 Automotive locksmiths are professionals that are skilled in assisting with a variety of different problems related to vehicles, from replacing stolen keys to laser key cutting to removing lost or broken keys. These locksmiths work with a variety of vehicles including cars, trucks, caravans and even boats. Like other locksmiths, auto locksmiths specialise in cutting and duplicating keys, repairing locks and other skills that are essential for any locksmith.

As vehicle security has become more sophisticated over the decades, however, automotive locksmithing has evolved with it. Today’s auto locksmith needs not only an understanding of the different locks on a vehicle (door, boot etc.), but a knowledge of the latest lock and key technology.

There are emergency locksmiths that specialise in home locks and keys, commercial and industrial locks and keys and – of course – vehicle locks and keys.
