Frequently Asked Questions
Should I call the police on a car lockout?
Locking yourself out of your car is not an emergency situation that requires the involvement of the emergency services. It's best to avoid calling 111 or any other emergency number unless you or someone else is in immediate danger or there is a serious threat to life or property. It's best not to tie up emergency services resources with non-emergency situations. Instead, you can try to gain access with a spare key if you have one or contact a locksmith or roadside assistance service for help. In case your vehicle is parked in extreme weather conditions like a hot day or a freezing cold day, and there is someone inside the car, such as a child, elderly or a pet, and you are locked out and unable to gain entry, you may contact the police if you are concerned about their safety. It is important to ensure the safety of those inside the vehicle in such situations. It is important to consider the severity of the situation when deciding whether or not to contact the emergency services. If you are unable to access your vehicle and it is located in a dangerous or obstructive location, such as blocking traffic or an emergency exit, it may be necessary to contact the emergency services for assistance. However, if the situation is not urgent, you should first try to contact your roadside recovery company or a locksmith to see how quickly they can get there. If they are unable to assist immediately, then you can consider contacting the police as a last resort. They will be able to use force to gain access to the vehicle if necessary.
Should I try and get the keys out of the car myself?
If you have locked your keys in the car and don't have a spare key or access to a locksmith, you may be tempted to try to retrieve the keys yourself. However, it is generally not recommended to attempt to gain access to your vehicle on your own, especially if you are not experienced with car locks or you do not have the proper tools. Trying to force your way into your car can cause damage to the vehicle and potentially harm yourself. Modern car locks are often complex and can require specialized tools and techniques to unlock, which only a trained professional should attempt. It's best to contact a reputable auto-locksmith or roadside recovery service to safely retrieve your keys and get you back on the road. Furthermore, attempting to retrieve the keys yourself may cause further damage to the vehicle, and you may end up with a more expensive repair bill than if you had simply called a professional locksmith. Additionally, any damage caused by attempting to gain access to your vehicle on your own will not be covered by your car insurance policy.
Will I be covered in insurance for locking my keys in the car?
It depends on your insurance policy. Some insurance policies include coverage for locksmith services (car key insurance) if you accidentally lock your keys in your car. If you have this type of cover, you may be able to make a claim to cover the cost of a locksmith or recovery service to help you get back into your car. It's also important to note that if you attempt to get into your car yourself and cause damage, you may not be covered by your insurance policy. Review your terms and conditions of your specific car insurance policy to see if it covers lockouts or not. Some policies may offer optional extras that cover lockouts, or you may need to purchase separate roadside assistance cover. However, in most cases, locking your keys in your car is not covered by standard car insurance policies. If you have breakdown cover, your provider may offer a lockout service, but there may be an additional charge for gaining entry to your vehicle. It is equally important to check your policy details to see if this is included and if there are any limitations or exclusions.
