What we cover
Keys Locked in the Boot
Keys dropped in the boot while you load the car are just as common. We open the boot or a door and recover the keys without bending the lid or breaking the latch. Read about keys locked in the boot.
Child or Pet Locked in the Car
A child or pet shut in a car is an emergency. Call 000 first and stay with the car, then call us if you need the car opened or the key replaced. Victorian law makes it an offence to leave a child unattended in a car. Read about a child or pet locked in the car.
Lockouts at Night
A lockout at night in an unlit street or car park is stressful. We attend, check ownership and open the car. See car lockout service at night.
