Locked Out of Your Car? We're On Our Way
Car lockouts happen to everyone: keys on the seat, keys in the trunk, or a car that locked itself while it was running. Our vans reach most of Tampa Bay in 20 to 30 minutes and we open the car with the right tools for your make, not a coat hanger or slim jim that can damage wiring and weatherstripping.
If the key itself is the problem, lost, broken or locked in for good, we can make a new one on the spot. That is the advantage of calling a car key specialist for a lockout.

Child or Pet Locked in the Car?
Tell us immediately when you call. In Florida heat a closed car becomes dangerous within minutes, so these calls get priority. If you believe someone is in danger and we cannot be there right away, call 911 first.
Damage-Free Entry
We use wedges, long-reach tools and make-specific lock tools to open the door without scratching paint or bending the frame. Modern cars have airbags and wiring inside the door, which is one reason we never use slim jims.

Customer reviews
Top-Rated by Tampa Bay Customers
Real words from real customers. Most of our work comes from people who were sent to us by a friend.
I lost the only key to my car. After struggling with the car dealership, a tow company, and AAA, I found Smart Locks. Not only was the service quick (5 minutes to make two keys without an original) it was also professional and courteous. And the best part- around 1/2 the price the dealership was going to charge me for 1 key. I absolutely will call Smart Lock next time and will instantly recommend it to everyone else.
Outstanding customer service. Danny is reliable, quick and professional. He came out on a Sunday night to the airport and got us going again in a few short minutes. He was communicative, efficient, and a pleasure to work with. I cannot say enough good things about his service, and highly recommend him for your commercial and residential needs.
I'm extremely satisfied with smart locks, I went on vacation in Tampa, lost my rental car keys in the middle of the night, I called two other companies that was closed but Danny from smart locks was able to arrive within half an hour and make me a key in no time! Extremely fast, friendly and professional service, thank you Danny
I locked myself out of the car and left the keys on the front seat. Along with the car keys was my house key. After calling a few different locksmiths, I got in touch with Danny. He was personable, professional, and quick to respond. The price he quoted me beat everybody else's and he was able to get the job done super fast. Through it all he was able to display the kind of demeanor that would keep a client relaxed during a stressful situation.
