Where Gainesville drivers get locked out
Lockouts happen in the busiest, most distracting moments: loading groceries at Butler Town Center, carrying bags into an apartment off SW 20th Avenue, unloading tubes and coolers at a spring parking lot near High Springs, or heading into the stadium on a game day. Tell us exactly where the car is — the store, the garage level, the parking row — and the technician will head straight there.
We open:
- Cars, SUVs and pickup trucks of all makes except Tesla, Lucid and Polestar
- Trunks and hatchbacks, including cars with the key locked in the trunk
- Work vans and fleet vehicles for Gainesville businesses
Don't force it
It's tempting to try a coat hanger or to pry the top of the door. On modern cars that often ends with a torn weather seal, a bent door frame, scratched paint or a side airbag sensor problem — all more expensive than a lockout service. Keep the car locked, stay in a shaded, safe spot, and call (352) 450-0512.
Lost key or locked-in key?
If you can see the key inside the car, a lockout is all you need. If the key is nowhere to be found, the job is different: we open the car and then make a new key on-site. Tell us which one it is when you call so the technician brings the right equipment.
Roadside plan or locksmith?
If your insurance or roadside plan covers lockouts, use it — but in busy spots and on weekends the wait can be long. We're open daily 8 AM–8 PM, confirm the price up front and don't limit which cars we open.
