Before you call

Have these four ready and the call takes a minute

01

Where the car is

The plaza, the store you parked in front of, or the cross street. In a garage, the P level and the nearest sign or door number.

02

What the car is

Make, model and colour. Year if you know it. That tells the technician which tools to bring.

03

Where the keys are

On the seat, in the ignition, in the trunk, or you honestly have no idea. All fine, just say which.

04

ID and ownership

Photo ID and the registration or insurance slip. Locked in the car too? Tell us on the call. Your ID is checked before the door is opened.

Who to call

Roadside plan, tow truck or us in Mississauga

Three ways out of a locked car. Each one is right some of the time. Here is the honest version.

Roadside plan

Makes sense when
Your plan or car insurance includes lockout help.
The catch
Wait times and cover depend on the plan and how busy they are.
Skip it when
The plan has no lockout cover, or you cannot wait.

Tow truck

Makes sense when
The car also will not start, or it has to be moved.
The catch
Its main job is moving cars. Ask if they open doors before they drive out.
Skip it when
The car runs fine and you only need the door open.

A lockout technician

Makes sense when
You need back in where the car is parked, today.
The catch
You pay for it. You hear the price on the call first.
Skip it when
The engine is the problem. We open doors, we do not fix cars.

If your plan covers lockouts and the wait works, use it. We would rather you keep the money. If not, call us. Call (647) 367-3123

Questions and details

Car lockout questions from Mississauga drivers

How the call goes

What happens on the call

We ask the four things above, tell you the price for your car and an arrival time, and you decide.

How the door gets opened

The technician sets a soft air wedge at the top corner of the door, opens a small gap and reaches the lock button or handle with a long-reach tool. Most cars open in a few minutes. Some newer models take longer, and you hear about it before anything changes.

While you wait

Stay where you can see the car, or wait inside the store and watch from the door if it is cold. Keep your phone ringer on. Skip the coat hanger. Modern doors are full of wiring and airbag sensors.

Why we ask for ID every time

Because the person standing next to a locked car is not always the owner. Photo ID and proof of ownership protect you as much as us. If the papers are inside, tell us on the call. Your ID is checked before the door is opened.

Quick answers

How fast can you get to my car in Mississauga?

Usually 20 to 30 minutes from the call. Traffic can add a few minutes, so we give you an arrival time on the phone before anyone drives out.

How much does a car lockout cost in Mississauga?

Car lockouts from $95. The price depends on the car and where the keys are, and you hear it on the call before you decide anything.

Can you open my car if the keys are inside?

Yes. It is the most common call we get. The technician opens the door with lockout tools made for car doors and hands you the keys.

Do you need proof the car is mine?

Yes. Photo ID and proof of ownership, such as the registration or insurance slip. If they are in the car, tell us on the call and we agree how you can show the car is yours. Your ID is always checked before the door is opened.

Do you come to plaza lots and underground garages in Mississauga?

Yes. Plaza lots, condo garages, GO lots and driveways. Give us the store, the entrance or the level and we find the car.

Keys locked in the trunk. Same call?

Yes. Tell us if any door still opens. Most of the time the technician opens a door, then the trunk comes through the cabin release or the back seat. Hatchbacks and SUVs usually open with the doors.
