How It Works

Open in minutes, not opened up.

There's a right way to open a locked vehicle and a lot of wrong ones. The wrong ones bend door frames, tear weatherstripping and snag the wiring and airbag components that live inside a modern door.

Our method is the careful one: a protective wedge creates a small, safe gap at the top of the door, and a long-reach tool trips the unlock button or lifts the handle from the inside. Total time on most vehicles is a few minutes, and the door closes afterward like nothing ever happened - because nothing did. It works on virtually everything on the road, from a 1998 pickup with manual locks to a brand-new SUV with proximity keys sulking in the trunk.

Why call a tow company instead of a locksmith? For vehicle entry, we're usually the faster option: our trucks are already on the road 24/7, so a lockout at the Regent Mall, a downtown parkade or a driveway in New Maryland is just the next stop on the route - no waiting for a shop to open or an emergency callout to be arranged. And if your lockout turns out to be something more - a fob with a dead battery, a frozen lock, an ignition problem - the truck that opened your door can also boost, tow or carry the vehicle wherever it needs to go. A locksmith is still the right call for rekeying, lost-key replacement and anything involving your house.

Winter multiplies lockouts. Cold kills fob batteries, locks freeze, and the classic Fredericton special - starting the car to warm up, stepping out, and hearing the doors lock behind you - keeps us busy from December through March. If that's you, stay warm inside and we'll be there shortly; the car's not going anywhere without you.

Lockouts are quoted firm on the phone like every service we offer - the price depends on your location and the hour, and you'll have the number before we roll. One call: (506) 292-5604.

FAQ

Common questions.

Will unlocking damage my car?
No. We use an inflatable wedge to create a small gap and a reach tool to trip the lock or handle - the same method dealerships use. No bent frames, no scratched glass, no popped weatherstripping.
Do I need to prove the car is mine?
Yes - once the door is open we ask to see the registration or another reasonable proof it's your vehicle. It takes thirty seconds, and it's exactly what you'd want us to do if someone else were standing next to your car.
My keys are in the trunk and the trunk won't open. Now what?
We open the cab and use the interior trunk release or fold-down seats. On vehicles with no interior access, we'll talk through the options - it's almost always still solvable on the spot.
Can you unlock my house too?
No - we open vehicles only. Home and business lockouts are a locksmith's trade. If you found us searching for a locksmith in Fredericton for a car door, though, you're in the right place - vehicle entry is exactly what we do.
A child or pet is locked inside. What do I do?
If a child is in distress or the heat is a danger, call 911 first - first responders can break glass without hesitation. Then call us: locked-in-kid and locked-in-pet calls go straight to the front of our queue, every time.
