Car Lockout Service — Locked Keys in Your Car?
It happens in a second: the door swings shut and your keys are staring at you from the driver’s seat — or locked in the trunk with the groceries. 401 Locksmith provides 24/7 car lockout service across Brampton and the GTA. We come to you and open your vehicle using professional, non-destructive methods.
Lockout situations we handle:
- Keys locked inside the car
- Keys locked in the trunk
- Key fob locked inside the vehicle
- Lost keys while out — we can unlock and make a new key in the same visit
- Broken key stuck in the door or ignition
Non-destructive entry — no damage to your car
We open vehicles with professional locksmith tools and techniques designed to get you in without damaging the door, lock, window or weatherstripping. Please don’t try a coat hanger or a forced window — replacing a window or repairing a bent door frame costs far more than a lockout call, and modern cars are built to resist exactly those tricks.
Child or pet locked inside?
If a child or pet is locked in a hot or running vehicle, call 911 first — that is an emergency. Once everyone is safe, we can help with the vehicle.
Unlock now, spare key for next time
While we’re there, ask about a spare key. A basic spare kept at home turns the next lockout into a non-event — and making one while you have a working key is usually the most affordable time to do it.
Honest, upfront pricing
Every vehicle is different, so there is no one-price-fits-all — the cost depends on your car’s year, make, model and the type of key it uses. What we promise is simple: a free quote before any work, no hidden fees, and no surprises when the job is done. Call or text 437-996-9349 with your vehicle details and we’ll give you a straight price for a lockout.

Common questions
How much does a car lockout cost?
It depends on the vehicle and the situation. Call 437-996-9349 for a free, upfront quote — you approve the price before we start, with no hidden fees.
Will unlocking my car damage it?
No — we use non-destructive, professional entry methods designed to open your car without damaging the door, lock or seals.
My keys are locked in the trunk. Can you get them?
In most cases, yes. Once we open the cabin we can usually access the trunk release or fold-down seats; some vehicles allow direct trunk entry. Tell us the year, make and model when you call.
Can you unlock any car?
We unlock most makes and models, including newer vehicles with advanced security. Call with your vehicle details and we’ll confirm on the spot.
I lost my keys completely — not just locked in. Can you still help?
Yes. We can unlock the vehicle and cut and program a brand-new key in the same visit, even if all keys are lost. See our lost car keys page.
