Locked Out? Don't Panic! A Step-by-Step Guide to Getting Back Inside: Truro Locksmith Company


We've all been there: that sinking feeling when you realise you're locked out of your home.

Before you resort to drastic measures (or smashing a window!), take a deep breath and follow these steps to handle the situation safely and effectively.

Locked out, lost keys, unable to get in your house - Truro Cornwall

Stay Calm and Assess the Situation:

Panicking won't help. Take a moment to assess the situation:

  • Where are your keys? Did you lose them, leave them inside, or are they simply misplaced?

  • What type of lock do you have? Is it a standard lock, a deadbolt, or something more complex?

  •  Are there any open windows or alternative entry points?  (But prioritise safety – avoid risky climbs!)


 Try These Simple Solutions (If Possible):

  1.  Check all doors and windows: Sometimes a simple oversight is all it takes.

  2.  Ask a neighbour or family member:  If you've given a spare key to someone nearby, reach out to them.

  3.  Retrieve a hidden spare key: If you have a hidden key, this is the time to use it!

If the simple solutions fail, it's time to call a qualified locksmith. Here's how to choose wisely:

  • Look for local locksmiths:  Search online for locksmiths in your area.

  • Check reviews and ratings:  See what other customers have to say about their services.

  •  Ask about pricing and availability:  Get a clear estimate/quote upfront and confirm their quote before starting work.

✅ No VAT charge! ✅ Friendly professional service!


What NOT to Do:

  •  Don't attempt to force the lock: This can damage your door or lock, making the situation worse.

  • Don't break a window:  This is a safety hazard and can be costly to repair.

  • Don't call an unverified locksmith.


Prevention is better than cure! 

Once you're back inside, take steps to prevent future lockouts:

  • Give a spare key to a trusted friend or neighbour.

  • Consider a lock with a keypad or smart lock features.

  • Keep your keys in a designated spot.

  • If you lose your keys, have your locks changed.


Being locked out can be frustrating, but by following these steps, you can handle the situation calmly and safely.  Remember, a professional locksmith is your best bet for a quick and damage-free solution.
