Vehicle Lockout Assistance in Calgary
Locked your keys inside? We can help get you back in without damaging your vehicle.
Locked Out of Your Vehicle
Keys locked inside, a fob that's stopped responding, or keys lost entirely — a lockout can happen to anyone, and it's rarely convenient. It's also one of the more stressful roadside calls because it often happens in a parking lot, outside a store, or right in your own driveway with somewhere to be.
What Not To Do
Avoid trying to force entry with tools, coat hangers, or by prying at the door or window — this is a common way people accidentally damage door panels, weatherstripping, or the glass itself, sometimes turning a simple lockout into a more expensive repair.
Vehicle LockoutWhile You Wait
Stay with your vehicle in a safe, visible location. If you're at night or in an unfamiliar area, wait somewhere well-lit if possible.
How RST Can Help
We can typically get you back into your vehicle without damaging the doors, locks, or interior trim, using tools designed for this purpose rather than improvised methods.
If Towing Is Needed Instead
A lockout on its own rarely requires towing. If your vehicle also has a separate mechanical issue once you're back inside, we can arrange a tow from the same visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will you damage my car getting me back in?
Our approach is designed to avoid damaging doors, locks, or trim. Let us know your vehicle's make and model when you call, since methods can vary by vehicle.
What if I lost my keys entirely, not just locked them inside?
We can help you get back into the vehicle, but a lost key typically needs to be replaced or reprogrammed by a dealership or locksmith afterward.
Can you help with a locked trunk or tailgate?
In many cases, yes — mention the specific issue when you call.
