Calgary Car Locksmith

Fast lockout response

With tow trucks spread across Calgary, there is an operator near your location waiting to help. We respond 24 hours a day, so you never wait longer than you have to.

The right tool for any lock

Our locksmiths carry several tools and methods for any car locking system. A slim jim slides inside the door and lifts simple locks, while newer cars with electric locks use an air wedge that opens the door just enough to reach the unlock button.

Keys locked in the trunk

It is easy to set the keys down while loading groceries or golf clubs, then watch the trunk close. We unlock trunks as well as doors and get your keys back without harming the finish.

Key retrieval and jammed ignitions

We open the car, extract keys locked inside, and in most cases free a jammed ignition or a broken key. If a new key is needed, we can tow you to a dealer or locksmith.

Keys locked inside the car

The classic lockout. We open the door without damage and get you back behind the wheel in minutes.

Keys locked in the trunk

Groceries or golf clubs went in and the keys went with them. We pop the trunk safely and hand your keys back.

A dead key fob battery

A fob that will not respond can lock you out. We get you in, and if the car also will not start, a battery boost gets you moving.

A broken key in the lock

We extract the broken piece and, in many cases, free a jammed ignition so you can drive away rather than wait for a tow.

Keys lost or stolen

We get you into the car, but a brand-new key or fob needs a dealer. If the vehicle has to go there, we tow it on a flatbed.

A child or pet locked inside

Call 911 first, especially in heat or extreme cold, then call us. We treat these as emergencies and come fast.

Stay calm and get to a safe spot. A lockout is stressful, but you are not stuck for long.

Call us at (587) 885-2326 and tell us your location: the street, nearest cross streets, or a landmark.

Give us your vehicle make, model, and year, and how the lockout happened (key left inside, fob battery dead, trunk locked, broken key, and so on).

If it is safe, stay with your vehicle, and wait in a well-lit area if you can until our operator arrives.

We arrive equipped

Our technician comes in a marked tow vehicle with locksmith tools, safety lights, and protective gear, ready for your lock.

We pick the safest method

We inspect your door, lock system, and window seals to choose the safest approach, a slim jim, an air wedge and tool, or professional tools for newer electronic locks.

We protect your car

We take every precaution to avoid damage to your paint, glass, and electronic systems while we open the door.

We handle broken keys

If your key is broken or jammed, we can often extract or repair it. If not, we arrange a tow or transport to a locksmith shop with your approval.

Frozen locks and seals

In deep cold, locks freeze and doors stick shut. Do not force a frozen key, it can snap off in the lock. We thaw and open it without damage.

Cold drains key fobs

A fob battery dies faster in the cold, and a dead fob can leave you locked out even with the keys in your hand. We can still get you in.

If it will not start either

A winter lockout often comes with a dead battery. One call covers both: we open the door and boost the battery.

Keep a spare and de-icer

A spare key at home and a lock de-icer in your bag save a cold wait, and our 24 hour service runs through every cold snap.

24/7 availability

We respond any time, day or night, weekends and holidays included.

Fast arrival

With multiple trucks across Calgary, we often reach you within 30 minutes.

Damage-free approach

We use professional tools and methods to avoid scratching paint or damaging the door.

All makes and models

We unlock most vehicle brands, including modern electronic locks and trunk lockouts.

Trusted and licensed

Our drivers are professional, insured, and experienced in roadside services across Calgary.

Keep a spare key

Leave a spare at home or with someone you trust, so a lockout is a quick trip instead of a service call.

Change the fob battery

Replace your key fob battery before winter, since the cold drains it fast and a dead fob can lock you out.

Touch your keys first

Make a habit of feeling for your keys before you close the door or the trunk, especially when your hands are full.

Never leave it running locked

Do not leave the car running and locked while you dash inside, it is the easiest way to get locked out.

Try a hide-a-key

A magnetic hide-a-key box or a Bluetooth key finder can save the day when a spare is not nearby.

Save our number

Keep (587) 885-2326 in your phone, so help is one tap away whenever a lockout does happen.

Can a tow truck help if I locked my keys in the car?

Yes. Our tow truck operators are also auto lockout pros, so the same team you would call for a tow can open your car. We come to you, open the door without damage, and get you back in, usually within 25 to 30 minutes.

How do I get my car unlocked in Calgary?

Call (587) 885-2326, tell us your location and vehicle, and we send the closest operator with the right tools for your lock. There is no need to break a window or risk damaging the door yourself.

Will unlocking damage my car?

No. We use professional tools, a slim jim for simple locks and an air wedge for electronic ones, and take every precaution to protect your paint, glass, and electronics. Forcing a lock yourself is what usually causes the damage.

Can you open a locked trunk?

Yes. We unlock trunks as well as doors, which is handy when the keys went in with the groceries or golf clubs. In most cases we can also retrieve items that are locked inside with the keys.

What if my key is broken or stuck in the ignition?

In many cases we extract the broken key and free a jammed ignition on the spot, so you can drive away. If it cannot be fixed roadside, we can tow you to a locksmith or dealer for a new key.

Do you unlock cars with smart keys and keyless entry?

Yes. We handle standard, keyless, smart-key, and high-security systems on most makes and models. Telling us your lock type when you call helps us arrive with exactly the right tools.

What does it cost to unlock a car in Calgary?

A reasonable, upfront price that includes travel within a set distance. A small surcharge may apply for remote spots, after hours, or advanced locks, and we confirm the total before we start so there are no surprises.

Are you available 24/7?

Yes. Our 24 hour service runs day and night, weekends, holidays, and through snowstorms. Lockouts rarely happen at a convenient time, so we are always on call.

My key fob is dead. Can you still get me in?

Yes. A dead fob can lock you out even with the keys in hand, and we open the door the same way. If the car also will not start, a battery boost gets you going in the same visit.

A child or pet is locked in the car. What do I do?

Call 911 first, especially in heat or extreme cold, then call us. We treat these as emergencies and come as fast as we can, but emergency services should always be your first call.

Do you serve all of Calgary?

Yes, from Downtown to the NW, NE, SW, and SE, out along Deerfoot and Stoney Trail, and to nearby communities. With trucks spread across the city, there is usually one close to you.
