Car Unlocking Loughton
Locked out in Loughton? Keys shut in cars along the High Road and at the station car parks are regular calls. We use non-destructive entry methods wherever the vehicle allows.
Being locked out of your car is one of the most common calls we take. Keys get shut in the boot while loading shopping, left on the driver's seat as a door swings closed, or the central locking fires while the key is still inside the cabin. It happens on driveways, in supermarket car parks, on site and at the roadside.

Where we work in Loughton
We are a mobile service with no shop or workshop, so the job happens wherever your vehicle is standing in Loughton — on a driveway, in a car park, at work or at the roadside where it is safe to work. IG10 is inside our normal coverage.

Keys locked inside the car
If your keys are sitting on the seat, in the footwell or in the boot, tell us the registration and where the car is parked. Different vehicles need different entry approaches, and knowing the model in advance means we arrive prepared rather than improvising at the kerbside.
Non-destructive entry
Our aim on every lockout is to open the vehicle without damage. We do not force locks or break glass as a first resort. On a small number of vehicles and situations, entry may not be possible without further work — if that is the case we tell you honestly before starting rather than after.
Proof of ownership
For vehicle security we may ask for proof of ownership or authority to access the vehicle — typically photo ID plus a V5C, insurance document or a hire/company letter — before locksmith work is carried out.
