Expert Tips to Prevent Queen Creek Missing and Locked-In Car Keys

Expert Tips to Prevent Queen Creek Missing and Locked-In Car Keys
Here are a few tips to minimize the risk of losing or locking your keys in the car.
Queen Creek, Arizona

How many times have you lost the keys to your car? And doesn’t it always seem to happen right when you’re running out the door on the way to work, or when you’re already late for some other important event? Sometimes you just forget where you put them. Other times, the keys may have fallen behind a shelf or been picked up and dropped somewhere by your toddler.

Even worse is when you lock your keys in the car. Maybe you only discover it after you’ve spent the day shopping, and then you’re stuck in the hot, Arizona sun while you wait for a Queen Creek emergency auto locksmith who specializes in car keys made on the spot.

Here are a few things you can do to minimize the risk of either losing your keys or accidentally locking them in your car:

Establish a Routine

When you have a routine, you can do things without even thinking of them. Establish a routine with your keys so that they are always where you expect them to be. Always put them away in the same place at the same time. For example, maybe you always put them in a bowl by your door as soon as you come inside.

When you just drop them anywhere, you are more likely to forget where you left them. Have a designated spot for your keys, and you will rarely lose them.

Never Leave Your Keys in the Ignition

Many of us have left our keys in the ignition while we hop out of the car to run in the store for a few minutes or did some other quick errand. Yet it is easy to forget that they’re in the ignition and to lock the door behind you. Some cars also automatically lock when the door is closed.

Make it a habit to always take your keys out of the ignition and take them with you when you get out of the car. This simple act will save you a lot of wasted time and money later.

Give a Spare Key to Someone You Trust

In case of an emergency, it's easier to be able to call a friend or family member to ask them to bring you a spare key. You'll save money on having a new key cut, and you'll get back into your car more quickly. Just make sure the person you choose is reliable. You don't want to give the key to someone who will lose it.

Even after taking these precautions, you still might find yourself without a needed key because you have lost it or locked it in your car. Pre-program the number of a trusted emergency auto locksmith into your phone, such as U.S. Key Service. We provide fast service for customers throughout Arizona, and we can get you back on your way quickly. Our Queen Creek locksmiths offer car keys made on the spot. They can get you into a locked car, or get keys out of ignitions or door locks. Store our number in your phone, and call us the next time you have a key emergency.
