LOCKOUT SERVICES

Different cars have different locking mechanisms. This is why some cars may be more difficult to unlock than others. Some cars may have a sliding mechanism which needs to be grabbed and pulled up in order to unlock the car. Some cars may be unlocked by pressing an unlock button on the driver’s side door handle, while other cars may be unlocked by using a special tool to grab the door handle. Some cars such as certain BMW’s and Cadillacs must be unlocked using a very specific procedure such as hitting the unlock button on the center console, followed by using a special tool to grab the door lever, and finally using a special tool to grab the sliding mechanism which locks and unlocks the door. 

As with cars, trucks also have different locking mechanisms and security features. For example, certain trucks’ alarm systems automatically go off as soon as one tries to unlock the vehicle from outside the truck without a car key. The truck’s security system will then trigger and the doors will almost instantaneously re-lock. There are a few ways in which a locksmith may get around this anti theft mechanism. One is to have exceptionally good timing. It may sometimes be possible to open the door right as the locksmith unlocks the vehicle, however, if they are unsuccessful in doing so then the alarm will go off and they will need to wait a few minutes for the alarm to turn off before attempting to unlock the vehicle a second time. 

Like Trucks and Cars, SUV’s may also have anti theft security mechanisms. Another common way to bypass these mechanisms in SUV’s may be to grab the keys from inside of the SUV. If the Keys are in plain sight and are in reach of the locksmith’s tools they may be able to grab the keys and use them to unlock the vehicle. One other possible method is to disable the security mechanism altogether. The security mechanism is kept on due to the electricity supplied by the battery of the vehicle. Therefore, the locksmith may sometimes be able to use a special tool to pop the hood of the car open and then disconnect the battery from the vehicle. Once the locksmith does this they should be able to unlock your SUV and get you on your way.
