Common Lockout Scenarios We Handle Instantly
A bike lockout can happen in many ways. Our mobile locksmiths are equipped to handle any situation you might face, including:
Keys Locked in Storage
You accidentally locked your only key inside a saddlebag, trunk, or other storage compartment. We can professionally open these compartments without any damage.
Jammed Steering / Fork Lock
The steering lock is engaged and won’t release, making it impossible to move your motorcycle.
Key Stuck in a Lock
This is a very common problem. We can safely resolve a key stuck in the gas cap, seat lock, or ignition without breaking the key or the lock.
Broken Key Extraction
A worn key can snap off inside a lock, leaving a piece behind. We use specialized tools to extract the broken piece so a new key can be used or made.

What to Do While You Wait for Our Technician
Once you’ve made the call, help is on the way. Here are a few important things you can do while you wait:
- Ensure Your Safety: If you are on a busy road, move yourself to a safe location away from traffic, like on the shoulder or a sidewalk. If possible, turn on your bike’s hazard lights.
- Have Information Ready: Get your ID and proof of ownership (like your registration) ready to show our technician upon arrival. This helps expedite the verification process.
- Don’t Attempt DIY Fixes: Now that a professional is en route, resist the temptation to try and fix the problem yourself. You don’t want to accidentally make the situation more complex or cause damage.
- Keep Your Phone On: Keep your phone line free and your phone powered on so our technician can contact you if they need to confirm your location.
A Comprehensive Solution: More Than Just Unlocking
Our service goes beyond just popping a lock. When our technician arrives, they provide a complete assessment to ensure you’re not just helped, but also safe for the road ahead. Our on-site service can include:
Lock Condition Assessment
If a key was stuck, we’ll examine the lock to see if it’s worn out or damaged and advise if a repair or replacement is needed to prevent it from happening again.
Key Inspection
We will look at your key to see if it’s bent, worn, or cracked, which may have been the root cause of the problem.
On-the-Spot Spare Key Creation
This is the perfect time to get a spare key made so you never have to face this emergency again. Our van is equipped for key duplication.
The Dangers of a DIY Approach
When you’re locked out, it can be tempting to try and solve the problem yourself with a wire, a screwdriver, or force. This almost always makes the problem worse. Attempting a DIY solution can lead to:
- Scratched paint or damaged chrome around the lock.
- A broken lock cylinder, which is far more expensive to replace than the cost of a simple lockout service.
- A key broken off inside the lock, making the situation more complex.
Calling a professional first is the fastest, safest, and ultimately most cost-effective solution. The cost of professional service is minimal compared to the potential repair costs from a DIY mistake.
