Why not just use a coat hanger?

Because it doesn’t work on anything built this century, and it wrecks the door seal and the wiring in the door while you try. Most cars now deadlock, which disables the inside handle, so nothing you poke through the window will open it. We carry entry tools for exactly this, and we’ve been using them for 25 years.

Where we get called

  • Shopping centre car parks: Whitfords, Lakeside Joondalup, Karrinyup, Morley and the rest
  • Beach car parks along the coast from Scarborough to Hillarys
  • Home driveways, usually first thing in the morning
  • Worksites, when the ute locks itself with the keys on the seat
  • Multi-level city car parks. Tell us the level and we’ll find you

Cars, utes and vans of any make

We open any vehicle: Toyota, Mazda, Ford, Hyundai, the Chinese brands, all of them. European cars are a specialty of ours, deadlocks and all. See European car lockouts. Making a new key is different, and depends on the make. See which cars we make keys for.

Common questions

My keys are locked in the boot. Can you get them?

Yes. On most cars we open a door and release the boot from inside. On cars where the boot is separate, we open the boot itself. Either way, no damage.

Will you scratch or damage the car?

No. We use car entry tools made for the job and don’t force doors or windows. The old coat-hanger trick is how cars get damaged, and we don’t do it.

My car is deadlocked. Does that matter?

Not for us. Deadlocked doors stop the inside handle working, which is why a coat hanger fails, but our tools work on deadlocked cars.

Do I need to prove it’s my car?

Yes. We’ll ask for your licence and something showing the car is yours, like the rego papers, before we open it.

What if I’ve lost the key altogether?

If you’ve lost it rather than locked it in, we can make a new key on the spot for Japanese, Korean and most American cars. For European and Chinese cars we’ll get you in, but a new key needs a dealer.
