# Car lockout in Santa Pola: the car opened, and nothing else

The keys are on the seat and the doors are locked, in a beach car park, outside the house in Gran Alacant or on the coast road. The car is opened without damage so you can take your keys back.

## Getting you back into the car

Most car lockouts are the same story: the keys left inside while unloading, a boot that shut on them, a door locked from inside by a child. The car is opened with purpose-made tools, without forcing the lock or breaking a window, and handed back to you with your keys.

It works on most private cars, and on the cars people hire for the week. With a hire car, check with the rental company first; see the questions below.

- Keys locked inside a car, a boot or a camper cab.
- A car door that will not open with its own key.
- Opening a car to reach documents or belongings left inside.

## Car keys are a different trade

None of the following is offered, for cars, motorbikes, scooters or vans. If you need one of them, a dealer or a car-key specialist is the right call, and we will gladly tell you so on the phone rather than make the trip.

- Cutting, copying or duplicating keys of any kind
- Spare keys for homes, gates, garages, mailboxes or padlocks
- Car keys: no cutting, supplying, replacing or programming
- Transponder chips and vehicle remote controls
- Ignition barrels and ignition switches
- Keys for motorbikes, scooters or vans

## Beach car parks, urbanisations and the coast road

Cars get locked where people stop in a hurry: at the beaches of Playa Lisa and Gran Playa, by the port where the boats leave for Tabarca, outside a bungalow in Gran Alacant while the shopping comes in, or on the stretch of coast between Arenales del Sol and La Marina. All of it is covered, day and night, as the [list of places we drive to](https://locksmithsantapola.es/gran-alacant-and-the-coast/) shows.

Tell us the car park or the street, and the make and colour of the car, so it is found at the first pass. If it is your front door rather than the car, [that is door opening](https://locksmithsantapola.es/door-opening-santa-pola/); at night, the [call-out page](https://locksmithsantapola.es/emergency-locksmith-santa-pola/) explains what to expect. Questions first? [Here is how to reach us](https://locksmithsantapola.es/contact/).

## Locked cars, hire cars and lost keys

### My keys are locked inside a hire car. Should I call you or the hire company?

Ring the hire company first: their contract may require them to send their own assistance, or to approve anyone else. If they tell you to arrange it yourself, we can open the car.

### Will opening the car set off the alarm or damage the door?

The door is opened with tools made for it, without forcing the lock or the window. The alarm may sound when the door opens; it stops with your key, which is now within reach.

### I have lost the car key altogether. Can you help?

Not with the key itself. We do not make, supply, cut or program car keys. If the car needs opening to get your belongings or papers out, that we can do; for a new key, a main dealer or a specialist in car keys is the right call.

### What will you ask to see before opening the car?

Something that ties you to the car: the registration document, the hire agreement or the insurance, which are often inside, so they are checked as soon as the door is open, together with your ID.

## Keys in the car, and the car shut?

Ring with the car park or street, and the make and colour of the car.
