High Priority

Signs you should stop trying and call for lockout help

Safety First

What to do right now before we arrive

A few calm steps make lockout dispatch smoother and help avoid damage. If you’re unsure about anything, call first — but this checklist helps while you wait.

1
Confirm the lockout type

Keys locked inside, trunk lockout, or locked while running — tell dispatch which one it is.

2
Share exact location + access

Street, lot, condo parkade, underground level, stall number, gate code — details reduce delay.

3
Avoid forcing doors or windows

Prying and pulling can bend frames and tear seals — the “quick fix” is often the costly one.

4
Keep the area safe

If you’re near traffic, stand somewhere visible and safe while waiting.

5
Mention urgency immediately

If the car is running or a child/pet is inside, say that first so dispatch can prioritize correctly.

Honest Clarity

Is this a lockout emergency — or can it wait?

Some lockouts are inconvenient. Others are time-sensitive. Use the guide below, and if you’re unsure, we’ll help you decide quickly over the phone.

Emergency — call right away if:

  • The vehicle is running and locked.
  • A child, pet, medication, or essentials are trapped inside.
  • You’re stranded on a roadside shoulder or unsafe area.
  • It’s extreme cold or dark and you need access quickly.

Can usually wait — if the situation is safe:

  • You’re parked securely and not in danger.
  • No one is trapped and the vehicle is off.
  • You can stay warm and safe while waiting.

Not sure which applies? Call and tell us where you are — we’ll help you decide in under a minute.
