Locked out? Call now and we're already on the way. Most drivers are back in the car 15 to 30 minutes after they call.
Keys on the seat, doors locked, and somewhere you need to be. It happens to careful people in grocery store lots, apartment decks, and office parking every day. Locksmith on Wheels runs mobile car lockout calls across Atlanta and 20+ surrounding cities, and the average driver is back in the car 15 to 30 minutes after picking up the phone. Call (470) 668-2196 and you get a real ETA, not a guess.
Lockout service starts at $89, quoted flat before the technician rolls out, with no trip fee added at the end. Our techs open the vehicle with professional tools that work with the door mechanism, so there is no damage to your paint, weather stripping, or the electronics packed inside a modern door panel. We check that the car is yours before opening it, which takes a minute and is the reason this service is safe to call.
If the keys are lost rather than locked inside, we can cut and program a new key on the same visit. We also handle ignition lock repair and key fob programming, and we cover house and business lockouts through our residential and commercial teams.
The most common call we get. We open the door on-site without damage and you drive away with the keys you already own. No key needs to be cut and nothing is replaced.
We open the cabin and release the trunk from inside where the vehicle allows it, or work the trunk lock directly. Tell us on the phone so the tech arrives with the right approach in mind.
Opening the door does not help if there is no key to drive away with. We open the car and cut and program a replacement on the same visit, so one call covers both halves of the problem.
Sometimes the car is not locked so much as unresponsive. We test the fob, replace the battery, and re-sync it to the vehicle before quoting you anything larger than that.
If the key snapped in the lock, we extract the broken piece without damaging the cylinder and cut a fresh working key on the spot.
Call 911 first, then call us. Emergency services can reach you fastest and are equipped for it. If they ask for a locksmith on scene, tell our dispatcher it is an entrapment and we prioritize the call.
Three things worth doing between hanging up and seeing our van pull in.
It costs you fifteen seconds and it ends the problem more often than people expect, especially on vehicles where the driver door locks automatically but a rear door does not.
Our tech needs you there with a photo ID to verify the car is yours. If your documents are locked inside with the keys, say so on the phone. If the lot feels unsafe, wait somewhere visible nearby and tell dispatch where you will be standing.
Modern doors hold side airbags, wiring looms, and lock modules right where a hanger goes in. A $89 lockout turns into a far larger repair bill quickly, and the door often still does not open.
Upfront starting-at prices, quoted before we roll out. Final price is always confirmed on-site before work begins.
