How To Gain Entry Into Your Car Without Keys

old fashioned car doorLocking keys in the car can be quite a frustrating experience. Assuming that you have chosen not to risk hiding a spare set of keys, here are some things that you can do to attempt to gain entry into your car without a key.

If you usually tend to leave your keys in your car often, it can be advisable to hide an extra set of keys somewhere on the vehicle. A small magnetic box that can stick to the metal surface of a steel frame or body is best. Ensure that you place it in a hard-to-reach obscure area where it won’t jiggle loose and fall off.

  • In case you lock yourself outside the car while the trunk is still open, you might be able to move the rear seat and gain access to the rear of the vehicle.
  • If your car has the old-fashioned door locks with small buttons on the ledge of the window, simply straighten out a wire coat hanger then bend its end into a small hook. Insert the wire between the side window and the rubber molding, hook it around the door button carefully, and pull it up.
  • In case you have smooth buttons, you can attempt to hook one using the hanger technique, but most tend to refuse to budge.

You need to get professional assistance if your car has door locks recessed inside the interior door handle.

Luckily, most new car models come with electronic door openers that won’t allow you to lock the doors while the keys are in the vehicle. The downside is that if you ever lose the device, it could cost you hundreds of dollars and several days to replace and you will probably have to get the car towed to a dealer who will then order a replacement key.

If your vehicle uses an electronic door opener, you might get the door opener, but if you have lost it outside the vehicle, you may be unable to start the vehicle without it.

Finally, if you require professional assistance, you can call emergency road assistance and ask whether they can open the door. If not, you should ask them to send an auto locksmith. Fortunately, the auto manufacturer codes each car key, and if you have the key code along with some personal identification, the locksmith will make you a new key. Write down you key code number and keep it somewhere safe where someone at home can read it for you if you are facing an emergency.

    • Day 4 of #theskinnerchallenge is fresh food, well none of my meals today were fresh (in fact everything came from the freezer lol) but I did spend some quality time playing with the goat kids today and their moms provide fresh milk daily on our farm so that counts right?😂 #selfsustainable #homesteadersofinstagram #goatsofinstagram #nubiangoats #homesteadersofamerica #minnesotahomestead #minnesotalife

    • On Wednesday we wear pink 🎀

And everyday we let our veins pop out 👀 (check out my hands!) It feels so good getting my morning work outs DONE ✅

When would you have 30 minutes extra in your day? Right away in the morning? After work? Maybe even on your lunch break?

If you think you don’t have 30 minutes, think about how you are prioritizing.. right now you are scrolling through IG wasting time when you could be making yourself healthier.✨ #jazminesfitnessjourney #wednesdayswewearpink #wednesdayselfie #sheinofficial #minnesotan #humpdayvibes #pinkvibes #minnesotalife #morninglife
