How long does an automotive trunk unlocking usually take?
We estimate that a trunk unlocking service typically takes anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes. This all depends on your unique situation, the type of vehicle, location, and time of day. Regardless of these factors, however, Pop-A-Lock will get you back on the road in no time!
What if my trunk is deadlocked?
When a car is deadlocked, the doors cannot be opened from the inside or outside. This means that any manipulation of the locking mechanism will not open the doors, and the only way to do so is to use a key. This also negates any option of attempting to open the doors to get to the trunk. Even if this is the case, Pop-A-Lock has your back. Our expert locksmiths will proceed as they see fit, keeping in mind what is best for you and your vehicle.
Is locking the keys in my trunk worse than locking them in the car?
Since every situation is different, it’s tough to say which scenario is the worse one. It mostly depends on the kind of vehicle, the security features, and any added security precautions. It also depends on the type of key your car requires. All of these factors will determine how difficult or easy it will be to give you back access to the trunk of your car.
The only thing to keep in mind, however, is the possibility of complications when it comes to trunk unlocking vs. door unlocking. Though there is usually a slightly higher risk factor when it comes to trunk unlocking, our trusted experts at Pop-A-Lock will use their extensive knowledge to get the job done in a quick and efficient way.
How can I tell if my keys are in my trunk?
It can be difficult to tell whether your keys are in your trunk if you cannot see the entire space directly from outside of the car. The best thing to do is try to remember where you last saw them, and retrace your steps from there.
Leaving your keys in the trunk of your vehicle is usually an accident. For example, keeping your keys in a bag that you tossed in the trunk means you simply forgot your keys were in there! For Pop-A-Lock experts, this is not a problem. They’ll come to you and get you the help you need as soon as possible.
