At some point in your life, you may experience getting locked out of your vehicle. Aside from it is embarrassing, it is also frustrating. When you are in that situation, figuring out what to do can be stressful. No matter how clever you are, it is bound to happen and is unavoidable. You can definitely look for a professional and affordable towing company for help. However, while waiting,  there are some things you can do so you can get back in your car.

One important thing you should do is to stay calm. You might overreact and lose focus in the process. It is highly important to keep your nerves. Before trying to smash the window, make sure to check if other doors are unlocked. Also, remember if you brought a spare key in your bag or pocket. If you have your phone with you, you might want to ask a favor to your relatives to bring the extra key to your location. This way, it is easier and less hassle. But if you are in a hurry, you might as well consider hiring an affordable towing company.

You can use the string method

Look for a tough string and tie a slipknot in the middle of it. Make sure that the string is at least seven feet long or according to the length of your car’s windows to the lock knob. Now, look for a thin sheet of metal or wood to open the upper corner of your car enough for the string to slip right through. Now, if it goes through, maneuver your way and tie it around the lock. Now, tighten it and pull to unlock the door. If done right, it will work. But in most cases where cars are now advanced, you need to call a professional towing company for help.

You can use the coat hanger method

Most doors have automatic locks and if you are in this dilemma, you can use the coat hanger method. Look for a metal rod that you can bend yet durable enough to go through. Now, slip the rod right through the windows and try to reach the switch to trigger it. It’s a bit risky because it can damage the door and it takes a lot of time to master the techniques. For a hassle-free experience, contact a wrecker services provider.
