Professional Car Lockout Outcomes for Newark Clients
Keys Staring at You Through the Window
There they are—sitting right on the seat. The door won't open, your spare is at home, and you're already late. We'll be there professionally with the right tools for your specific vehicle.
Keys Trapped in the Trunk
Threw your bag in the trunk, heard the click, realized your keys were in the bag. Classic. We can access your trunk through the cabin or release mechanism depending on your car.
Child or Pet Locked Inside—URGENT
This is our absolute top priority. If a child or pet is locked in a vehicle, call us right away. We send our nearest available tech as fast as possible.
Key Snapped in the Ignition
That sick feeling when the key just... breaks. Now you can't start the car AND there's a piece of metal stuck in there. We extract broken keys and cut replacements on-site.
Keyless Entry Stopped Working
Fob battery died, car won't recognize it, or the system just glitched. Modern cars can be frustrating. We have the diagnostic tools to get you in without triggering alarms or damaging sensors.

Why Our Car Lockout Standards Lead the Industry
The Kwikey Protocol for Car Lockout
Call Us—Tell Us Everything
Location, vehicle make/model/year, and most importantly: is anyone locked inside? This helps us dispatch the right tech with the right tools.
Nearest Tech Dispatched Immediately
We send whoever can get to you most efficiently with the proper equipment for your vehicle. You'll know when to expect them.
Prompt Ownership Verification
We confirm you're the vehicle owner with registration, ID, or matching info. Takes 30 seconds and protects everyone.
Transparent diagnostic quote before we start
We assess the situation, explain what we'll do, and give you an diagnostic-led quote. You approve before we touch anything.
Professional Unlock—Zero Damage
Using vehicle-specific tools (not coat hangers), we unlock your car without scratching paint, damaging weather stripping, or triggering your alarm.
Back on the Road
You grab your keys, we confirm everything works, and you're on your way. Most standard lockouts are resolved efficiently so you can get back to your day.
"Just moved into a rental near the University of Delaware. Landlord approved getting locks rekeyed for safety. Tech arrived same day and did all 4 exterior doors in under an hour. Peace of mind and excellent service!"
"Warehouse manager needed all exterior padlocks and door hardware replaced after a key went missing. Kwikey sourced high-security padlocks and lever handles, swapped everything in one visit, and delivered labeled key sets for each access point. Very organized process."
"Just moved into a new house and wanted all the locks rekeyed. The technician was very thorough, explained everything, and gave me a fair diagnostic quote. Will definitely use Kwikey again!"
