When such a thing happens again, if the vehicle has remote control, then u are lucky. All you have to do is to call someone in ur house to locate the spare remote, then ask him/her to press the unlock while holding it very very close to his handset, again, while u on your part will equally stand very very close to ur vehicle. Like magic, ur car will be unlocked instantly. Please share this trick. it works like charm. 3 Likes 1 Share |

I was in that situation last week luckily for me it happen very close to the guy that use to open it for people of that situation, he use the screwdriver to open the upper part off the door nd insert the long curve iron to unlock the door honestly I have been try to avoid these not knowing it's going to be eassy as that I think is the best option instead of braking the glass |

I have experienced it twice but got lucky because my car is automatic with central lock. I used a long rod, but slim. Pushed it in from the drivers seat to the lock of the car, and then bend it slightly to push the lock up, i got lucky and it opened but scratch the car abit... Just by the drivers seat. |

Had such experience last 2 years and the panel beater removed the rubber sealing on the driver's side of the glass by the door and folded binding wire in L shape and drove it then twisted and hooked the door lock and pulled up, bammm! The door was opened. |

I have experienced it before, it took me time to open it myself because my phone, handbag...everything was inside. I was also home alone. After opening it that day, I don't think it can ever take me more than 10minutes to open any car again, if the right TOOLS are available. |

Some of you guys are using outdated cars, modern and state of the art rides don't lock if the key is inside. It will give you a funny alarm. Unless it's on the move and your inside. 1 Like |

choi My own happened yesterday o I was washing my car and i left the key on the seat by mistake . before i could say Oghenegalome Amaju , i just heard the car lock by it self. I had my house key ,my wallet and everything in the car. Na so i start waka o I walked almost like two kilometers to one panel beater by 7.40 am. the place as expected as empty , i called the bros, he said he was at a very far place....i just weak like dodo. I walked to anoda mechanic , collected a panel beater's number only to find out it was the previous guy i called. I was like this is devil working at molecular level As i was trekking back home, I now remembered I didn't lock the main door, just the protector. I just saw on welder by my house and asked him to come help me cut the padlock. In just three minutes and with five hundred bucks the deal was done....(i come dey reason,na God dey help person finally o, just three minutes them don cut padlock sharply) Na so i come enter house , use the spare key open door o 1 Like |

Try to force the glass of the door down and get an iron to push the pin down or get a panel beater to do it for you,this happen to me recently, but i push the glass of the door down. |

Re: Ever Had Your Keys Locked Inside Your Car, With No Spare Around? by Authentic4life: 5:18pm On Feb 19, 2016 |
Had the same experience late last year. I travelled away from my base for a 3 days convention. I had same experience on day one and the distance from my base to my current location is about 150km.Since I cant start returning to base even though I have a spare at home. After trying different options which included trying to gain access from the booth, to no avail I had to look for the nearest Panelbeater to help my case. I can tell you it was not a pleasant experience because it was my first time but I can tell you it was a big learning point! dgitrader: |

Happened to me twice, had no time to take my car to the car wash so I decided to do it myself. After washing the car I forgot my key inside, don't know what happened my car locked automatically I called a friend of mine who apparently was pretty good at it cus he fell victim to such on daily basis... Now here is what I learnt to avoid bin stuck but at your risk. I removed my plate number and hid the spare key behind it, used the bolt to tighten it. Whenever such happen u know what's next... |
