A lockout can occur for various reasons, but one reason might be that the key has broken off or is now in pieces inside of the door lock. If this is the case, broken key extraction might be needed, or lock replacement – both of which are services that can be performed by a locksmith. A similar situation that can occur is the key not going into the lock, which might happen due to damage or of course the incorrect key being used. If the lock was not installed correctly, this can happen, too. That is why it is important for a proficient locksmith to do the job of lock installation. If there is dirt or other debris within the lock, this might end up causing a lockout because the key won’t insert as needed.
What can you do to avoid these concerns? You can make sure the locks stay clean. You can make sure that any services related to the locks are performed by a proficient locksmith. You may consider having a mantra so that you do not exit your home without a key in your hand.
When you just can’t get back inside, we recommend contacting a mobile locksmith. Why? Because this is a person who is going to come to your rescue if you cannot get into your house. A lockout is frustrating, whether the lock was not installed correctly, a key broke, or a key went missing. Maybe the issue is none of the above, and you shut the door too fast behind you without realizing it was locked. No matter how it happens, it is frustrating to be locked out of your own home.
We hope that you know you can contact a mobile locksmith for assistance with lock and key dilemmas. Here are some quick tips to consider if you do become locked out or if you want to prevent this from happening to you:
1.) Use your spare key
2.) Provide a neighbor or trusted friend with a spare key
3.) Switch to keyless entry
4.) Check the back door or window
5.) Use a hide-a-key so a key is on your property
Home lockouts are when you cannot get into your locked home. We hope that whether it happened due to locks that are broken, or even jammed keys, that you know now what you can do.
