Locked out of your car in Milwaukee
A car lockout in Milwaukee usually happens in one of a few ways:
- Keys on the seat. The door locked behind you, and the keys are in plain sight.
- Keys in the trunk. The trunk closed on the keys, and the doors are locked too.
- The car was warming up. On a cold morning, the car runs in the driveway with the doors locked and the keys inside.
- A smart key stopped working. The car will not see the key, and the door will not open.
- A key broke in the door. Half of the key is in the lock, and the other half is in your hand.
Once we are at the car, most lockouts take a few minutes.
Cars, trucks, and vans we open
We open sedans, coupes, SUVs, minivans, pickups, and work vans, and commercial vehicles such as box trucks and cargo vans. Trunks and hatches are opened too, including cars where the trunk has no outside lock.
We use tools made for car doors and work carefully around the paint, the glass, and the weatherstrip. After the door is open, we check that the locks and the windows work as they did before.
Documents for a car lockout
A car is opened only for its owner or a driver the owner sent. We ask for a photo ID and the title or the registration. The registration is often in the glove box, so you show it to us as soon as the door is open. For a company car or a rental, a letter from the company or the rental agreement works. These documents protect you and your car.

Winter lockouts in Milwaukee
In January, a car lockout is more than an annoyance. Many lockouts happen on cold mornings, when a car warms up in the driveway and locks itself or gets locked with the keys inside. Tell us if the engine is running, so we know how urgent it is. Parking lots at work, at stores, and at the stadiums see their share too, and we come to wherever the car is parked.
When the keys are lost, not locked inside
If the keys are not in the car at all, opening the door is only half the job. We open the car and make a new key on the same visit; see lost car keys. If a key broke in the door, see broken car key. Urgent lockouts of any kind are on our emergency locksmith page.
