Why Do You Need To Secure Your Automobile?
With the cost of running a car in Australia (transport costs averaging 13% of average household income), it pays to take some preventative measures. The lock on your car should be as possible in order to prevent theft. Aside from the lock itself, you could also simply be wary of where you park – simple, intelligent maneuvers can really help to prevent unwanted guests from entering your property.
But even if you take all necessary precautions, you are statistically likely to lose your car keys at some stage of your life. Aside from the TV remote and the phone, car keys are lost more than any other household item.
This is why it makes sense to call Barrier Locksmiths for a spare key before it gets lost. This will save you time and money over the long-term. Our number is 0429 197 981 and we are available for a fast and free quote.
How Much Does It Cost To Hire a Locksmith?
On average, you can expect an automotive locksmith service in Brisbane to cost around $100 to $300. This quote is affected by a number of factors such as the model of your car, our distance from your location, and the time of day of the call. The cost to unlock European car models is usually higher. If you are farther away and are calling after office hours, you can naturally expect the service to cost more. Call us on 0429 197 981 or visit our website for a fast FREE quote.
How long does it take to deal with an automotive lockout?
Our goal is to get you back in your car and on the road as fast as possible! It usually takes us under five minutes to unlock most cars, although highly specialised locks may take a bit more time. Once we arrive on site and are able to assess the task, we can give you a more solid time estimate depending on the situation.
Frequently Asked Questions About Automotive Lockouts
How much does a spare car key cost?
The cost of a spare key ranges anywhere from $50 to $800 depending on the model of your car and whether you’re after a traditional (manual) or electronic key. Traditional keys are not as secure but they’re less complicated and thus more affordable to produce than keys made with transponder technology. We highly recommend getting a spare set as it’s significantly cheaper than making keys from scratch as in the case of lost car keys. Having a spare ready will also help you prevent future lockouts.
How do I unlock my car door without a key?
The quick answer is you don’t, not without the help of professional locksmith service. The internet will lead you to many hacks using a shoestring, tennis ball, coat hanger, or a rod and screw driver but unless you have a really old car, these hacks are unlikely to work. Worse, they might even end up damaging your car!
If you find yourself locked out, first check if any of your windows or doors might be unlocked and can grant you access. If not, retrieve your spare key at home or from your family. If you don’t have a spare, call us on 0429 197 981 and leave the job to the professionals.
Will a tennis ball unlock a car door?
One of the most popular hacks to open a locked car door is to use a tennis ball. According to one viral video, simply punch a small hole in a tennis ball, shove it as hard as you can to the lock, and the burst of air pressure should unlock your car. Imagine if this were true, then thieves would be having a field day everyday! Air pressure will not disengage your locks and this hack, though popular, simply does not work.
What tools do car locksmiths use?
Professional locksmiths use specialist picks, slim jims, wedges, tension tools, and jigglers among other tools to unlock cars. While you’re able to purchase some of these tools in your local hardware store, locksmiths undergo years of professional training to be able to use these tools correctly without damaging your car.
What does an automotive locksmith do?
You can count on an automotive locksmith to deal with all things car lock and key related. This includes opening locked doors, duplicating keys, creating manual or transponder keys, removing broken keys from your doors or ignition, and rekeying car locks.
