Car lockouts use specialized tools including air wedges, long-reach tools, and programming equipment for key fobs.

Common questions from clients looking for Lock Installation and Repair services
Re-keying ($20–$50) changes the pin tumblers so only new keys work — much less expensive than hardware replacement ($100–$300). Choose replacement only when the hardware is old, damaged, or you want to upgrade security.
ANSI Grade 1 deadbolts withstand 250,000 cycles and 10 kick-in attempts; Grade 2 withstands 150,000 cycles and 5 kick attempts. Grade 1 is recommended for all exterior doors.
Anti-pick serrated pins, anti-drill hardened steel inserts, anti-bump pins, and a restricted keyway (key can only be duplicated by authorized dealers) — Medeco, Abloy, and Mul-T-Lock are the recognized high-security brands.
A residential lockout where picking is possible takes 5–20 minutes; older or high-security locks may take longer. Automotive lockouts vary from 5 minutes to over an hour for proximity-key programming.
Absolutely — you don't know how many key copies were made or who has them. Re-keying all exterior lock cylinders is the most important security action when taking possession of any property.
