Keys on the seat, keys in the trunk, a key that snapped in the door or a key fob that stopped working: a car lockout always comes at a bad moment. Call HMS Locksmith, tell us where the vehicle is parked and its make and model, and a technician will come to you. Stay near your car if it is safe to do so and keep your phone on so the technician can reach you on arrival.
Breaking a window or forcing a door with a coat hanger usually costs more than the lockout itself. Our technicians use proper entry tools to open the door without scratching the paint, bending the frame or damaging the door lock, weather stripping or electronics.
HOW WE OPEN YOUR CAR
Our vans are fully equipped with advanced tools and key programming machines, so we can handle most cars, trucks and SUVs in the greater Boston area, from older models with a simple metal key to newer vehicles with push-to-start and proximity keys. Once the door is open we check that the lock and the key work as they should before we leave.
If the key is lost rather than locked inside, we do not stop at opening the door. We carry a large inventory of keys for new, old and rare vehicle models and can cut and program a replacement car key on site, including transponder chip keys and remotes, so you can drive away instead of paying for a tow to the dealer. If the key broke in the ignition, we also handle ignition repair.

CAR LOCKOUT FAQ
How long does it take to open a locked car?
Opening the door is usually quick once the technician is with your vehicle. The total time depends on where you are, traffic and the type of vehicle, and we will give you an estimate when you call.
Will unlocking my car damage it?
No. Our technicians use proper entry tools made for vehicle lockouts and open the door without breaking glass or damaging the lock, paint or door frame.
