Why Choose Tow Mesa
for Lockout Assistance?
Professional, Damage-Free
Unlocking
The goal of any lockout service should be getting you into your car
without damaging it—sounds obvious, but not all services deliver.
Amateur attempts to unlock cars can scratch paint, bend door frames,
damage weather stripping, or even break windows. Our technicians are
trained in proper vehicle entry techniques using professional tools
designed to open cars safely.
We invest in modern lockout equipment that works with today’s
vehicles, including long-reach tools, air wedges, and specialized picks
for various lock types. This professional approach means your car looks
exactly the same after we unlock it as it did before—just now you can
get inside.
Experience With All Vehicle
Types
Over 30+ years in the Mesa area, we’ve unlocked just about every make
and model you can imagine. From older vehicles with traditional lock
mechanisms to modern cars with advanced security systems, our
technicians have the experience to handle your specific vehicle
safely.
Different vehicles require different approaches. What works on a 2010
Honda might damage a 2024 Tesla. Our technicians assess each situation
individually and use the appropriate tools and techniques for your
specific vehicle, ensuring a safe, damage-free unlock every time.
Fast Response When You Need
It Most
Being locked out of your car is more than just inconvenient—it can be
genuinely stressful or even dangerous depending on where you are and
what’s inside the car. That’s why we prioritize rapid response for
lockout calls. Most Mesa locations receive service within 20-30 minutes,
and we treat every lockout as urgent.
Our dispatchers understand that lockout situations vary in severity.
If you have children or pets locked in a vehicle, if you’re in an unsafe
location, or if you’re dealing with extreme heat (a real concern in
Mesa’s summers), let us know and we’ll prioritize your call
appropriately.
Available Around the Clock
Lockouts don’t follow a convenient schedule. You might lock your keys
in the car at 8 AM before work, at noon during your lunch break, at 6 PM
picking up groceries, or at 2 AM after a late night. Whatever time it
happens, Tow Mesa is ready to help. Our lockout assistance is available
24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year—including holidays.
Fair, Upfront Pricing
Getting locked out of your car is stressful enough without worrying
about being taken advantage of. Tow Mesa provides clear, upfront pricing
before we dispatch. You’ll know exactly what the service costs, with no
hidden fees or surprise charges when our technician arrives. Our lockout
rates are competitive with any service in the Mesa area.

vehicle.

arrive, verify you’re the vehicle owner (we may ask for ID or
registration), assess the best entry method for your vehicle, and safely
unlock your car.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you unlock any type of vehicle? We can unlock
most passenger vehicles including cars, SUVs, trucks, and vans. Some
high-security vehicles may require dealer assistance, but our
technicians can handle the vast majority of vehicles on the road.
Will unlocking my car damage it? Not when done
properly by trained professionals using the right tools. Our technicians
are skilled in non-destructive entry techniques. We never use methods
that could damage your vehicle.
How do you unlock cars without the key? We use
professional lockout tools including long-reach tools, air wedges, and
specialized picks. The specific technique depends on your vehicle’s
make, model, and lock type. All methods we use are non-destructive.
What if my keys are lost, not just locked inside? We
can still unlock your car so you can retrieve belongings or access the
vehicle. If you need new keys made, we recommend contacting a locksmith
or your dealer. We can provide a tow to the dealer if needed.
Do I need to prove I own the car? Yes, we verify
ownership before unlocking any vehicle. Please be prepared to show ID
and registration or proof of ownership. This protects you and all
vehicle owners from unauthorized entry.
Can you unlock my trunk? If your keys are locked in
the trunk only, we may be able to access the trunk release from inside
the car (once we unlock the doors) or unlock the trunk directly
depending on your vehicle type.
What if I have a child or pet locked in the car?
This is an emergency situation. Call us immediately at 480-725-5862 and let the dispatcher know.
We’ll prioritize your call. If there’s immediate danger, call 911
first—emergency responders can break a window if necessary to save a
life.
How long does lockout service take? Once our
technician arrives, most lockouts are resolved within 5-15 minutes. Some
vehicles with more complex security systems may take slightly
longer.
Do you work with roadside assistance programs? Yes,
we work with most motor clubs and insurance company roadside assistance
programs. Contact your provider to confirm coverage for lockout
service.
What should I do while waiting for lockout service?
Stay near your vehicle in a safe, visible location. If you’re in a
parking lot, stay under lights if it’s dark. If you’re on a roadway,
stay on the sidewalk or behind a guardrail.
How to Avoid Future Lockouts
While we’re always happy to help, here are some tips to reduce your
chances of getting locked out:
- Spare key: Keep a spare key at home, with a trusted
friend, or in a magnetic key box (hidden well) - Key habits: Always confirm you have your keys
before closing the door - Key finder device: Products like Tile or Apple
AirTag can help locate lost keys - Phone app: Some newer vehicles allow unlocking via
smartphone app - AAA or motor club: Membership includes lockout
coverage (though you’ll pay whether you use it or not)
