DIY Or The Tow Truck

Trying to break into your own car using coat hangers or slim-jims usually ends in scratched paint, torn weatherstripping, and damaged door linkages. Calling a tow truck? They charge a premium hookup fee just to try (and often fail) to open modern, high-security car doors.

The Professional Way

For emergency lockouts, Etobicoke Locksmith provides mobile locksmith service across Etobicoke and West Toronto.

Lockout Services We Handle Daily

Whether it’s a deadbolt at midnight or keys sitting visible in the cup holder of your running car, we have the exact tools needed for the job:

Car Lockouts

Keys locked in the cabin, trunk, or ignition? We open all makes and models, including luxury European vehicles with high-security deadlocks (BMW, Mercedes, VW).

House & Apartment

Locked out of your home? We pick deadbolts, smart locks, and handle-locks. If you lost the key entirely, we can rekey or replace the lock on the spot.

Commercial Lockouts

Can’t open your storefront or office? We unlock commercial grade heavy-duty locks, panic bars, and mortise cylinders so you can open for business on time.

Emergency Lockout Service

Unlike amateur services that immediately reach for the drill, a true locksmith’s first approach is always non-destructive entry (NDE). For cars, we use inflatable air wedges that safely gently push the door frame just enough to insert a protective long-reach tool and pull the inside handle. For homes, we use professional lock-picking or tension tools to manipulate the pins inside your cylinder. We only drill a lock as an absolute last resort when internal mechanics have completely failed or rusted solid.

Security Tip: Did you lose the keys that locked you out? Once we get you back inside, ask us to perform a quick lock rekey. Your old keys will instantly stop working, ensuring whoever found them cannot enter your property.

How The Emergency Process Works

When you’re locked out in the cold or rain, every minute counts. Here’s our streamlined process:

1. You Call Our Dispatch

We ask for your exact location in Etobicoke and the type of lock (Car make/model or Home). We give you a firm ETA and price estimate.

2. Technician Arrives

A fully-equipped mobile unit arrives. For security purposes, we’ll ask to quickly verify your ID before we begin bypassing the lock.

3. Safe Entry

Using specialized, non-destructive tools, we unlock your door in minutes. No broken glass, no scratched paint.

4. Optional Key Cutting

If your keys aren’t inside the house/car, we can immediately originate a new set of keys or a new car fob right from our van.

Emergency Locksmith FAQs

My keys are locked in the trunk. Can you open it?
Trunk lockouts are trickier than cabin lockouts, especially on modern sedans where the cabin trunk-release is disabled when the car is locked. However, we have specialized Lishi tools that allow us to pick and decode the physical keyway on the trunk itself, opening it without causing any damage to the locking mechanism.
What if I left my keys in the ignition and the car is running?
Please let dispatch know this immediately! A running vehicle is considered an extreme priority due to carbon monoxide risks and fuel waste. We will bump you to the absolute top of the queue and dispatch the nearest technician in Etobicoke immediately.
Do you drill the lock on my house?
In 95% of residential lockouts, drilling is entirely unnecessary. Our technicians are trained to pick standard pin-tumbler locks, bypass latches, or use bump keys. We will only recommend drilling if the lock is a high-security model designed to resist picking (like certain Schlage Primus or Medeco models) or if the lock’s internal mechanism is physically broken.
How fast can you get to me in Etobicoke?
Because we have mobile units dedicated specifically to the Etobicoke area (covering Mimico, Islington, Rexdale, Alderwood, etc.), our average ETA is typically between 15 to 30 minutes, depending on traffic conditions on the Gardiner or Hwy 427.
Will this damage my car’s weatherstripping or paint?
Absolutely not. This is why you hire a professional. Tow truck drivers often use brute force and mental jimmy tools that tear rubber seals and scratch paint. We use premium, soft-coated wedge bags and protective sleeves that ensure your vehicle looks exactly the same before and after the unlock.
