Locked Out of Your Lexus?

Keys locked inside, a fob that quit or a trunk that won’t open. We sort it out where your Lexus is parked.
Lexus owners keep their cars a long time, so a lockout could be on a 2008 RX 350 or a brand new TX. Lexus has used SmartAccess keys for well over a decade, which means the key rarely leaves your pocket, right up until it’s set down inside the car. We come to wherever it’s parked and open it with care.

We're known for excellence in mobile locksmithing.

What to Expect When You Call

Most people who call us are standing next to a locked car with a phone and not much else, so we keep the call short. Tell us the model, the year and where you are, and you get a price and a realistic arrival time before we hang up. A mobile technician comes to you, checks your government issued ID and then opens your Lexus with automotive entry tools. We work Monday through Saturday, 8am to 8pm, and the number is (855) 588-0198.

Proper Entry Tools

Coat hangers and slim jims belong in the past. Our technicians use automotive entry tools made to open a door without bending the frame or tearing the weatherstripping.

Price Before We Drive Out

Tell us the Lexus model, the year and where it's parked. You get a quote on the phone, and that's what you pay unless you ask us for extra work.

ID Check Up Front

Before the technician starts on the door, we ask to see a government issued ID. It takes a few seconds and keeps us from opening a car for someone it doesn't belong to.

Careful Around the Electronics

Modern car doors hold wiring, airbag sensors and window motors. We work slowly around them, and if your Lexus calls for a different approach, we say so before we start.

No Hidden Fees

The quote covers the lockout. If we find something else once we're at the car, like a broken key stuck in the lock, we explain it and give you the price before doing anything about it.

Key Lost Instead of Locked In

If the key is gone for good, ask about a replacement when you call. We'll check what your Lexus model needs, and if it's a key we can cut and program, the technician we send brings the equipment for it.

How We Open a Locked Lexus

Lock picking tools
Where Lexus hides the keyhole depends on the model. On a 2016 to 2022 NX or RX, and on the ES and LS from 2018, you pull the handle out to find it. On 2023 and newer NX, RX and TX models, it’s behind a small cover at the back of the handle. The mechanical key inside the fob opens it when the fob battery is dead. With the fob locked inside, we get you in with extra care for paint most Lexus owners keep spotless.

Before You Call: Quick Checks for Lexus Owners

If your Lexus has Remote Connect, you can unlock it from the Lexus app with the car switched off. Check where the spare key is, and if the fob stopped working rather than getting locked in, try a new battery once you’re inside.

Lexus Trunk and Hatch Lockouts

Open car trunk in a field
Keys dropped in the trunk while you loaded the groceries, a hatch that won’t release, or a trunk lock that stopped turning. On most cars the quickest way in is through a door, then the trunk release or the fob. If your Lexus has no inside release, we work on the trunk lock itself, and if that lock is damaged, we tell you what it needs before we touch it. Call (855) 588-0198 and tell us what’s going on.

How Our Lexus Lockout Service Works

1. You Call Us

Call (855) 588-0198 and tell us where you are, what you drive and what happened. You get a quote and a realistic arrival time on the same call.

2. A Technician Heads Out

We send a mobile technician to the address you gave us. If anything changes on our side, we call to let you know.

3. ID Check First

Before any work starts, the technician asks to see a government issued ID.

4. Opening the Door

The technician looks over the door and lock, then opens your Lexus with automotive entry tools, carefully and without forcing anything.

5. Keys Back in Hand

Once the door is open, you get your keys back and can check that everything inside is as you left it.

6. A Final Check

We make sure the locks on your Lexus work as they should before we leave, and you pay the price you were quoted.

Common Lexus Lockout Situations

No two lockouts are exactly alike, but most Lexus calls come down to one of these.

Keys Locked in Your Lexus

The keys are on the seat or in the cupholder and every door is locked. Smart key cars try to prevent it, but a fob in a bag or a door locked by hand can still get past that.

Lexus Key Fob Not Working

A weak fob battery or a flat car battery can leave the buttons doing nothing. We open the door by hand, and from there you can check the fob battery or the car battery.

Lexus Trunk Lockout

Keys in the trunk, or a trunk that won't release with the button or the fob. We usually get in through a door first and go from there.

Broken Key in a Lexus Lock

An old or worn key can snap off in the door lock or the ignition. We extract the broken piece and let you know whether the lock or the key needs attention afterward.

Lost or Stolen Lexus Key

If the key is gone, opening the door is only the first step. Mention it when you call so we can check what a new key for your model involves and send a technician equipped for it.

Lost or Damaged Lexus Key?

What a replacement key involves depends on the year. Older cars take a plain cut key. Most cars built since the late 1990s have a transponder chip in the key, and many newer ones use a remote head key, a flip key or a smart key. The technician we send can cut and program many of these on site. If your model needs a key we can’t make on site, we’ll tell you on the phone rather than send someone out.

Lexus Lockout Questions

When you unlock remotely, Lexus relocks the doors if none is opened within about 60 seconds, unless the setting has been changed. Unlock again when you’re standing at the car. If the app isn’t working at all, we can open it in person.

Leave the broken piece where it is and don’t try to turn what’s left. We remove it with extraction tools, check that the lock still works, and talk you through a new key if you need one.

Our mobile technicians cover Maryland, Washington DC and Northern Virginia, working out from Silver Spring to Baltimore, Frederick and Prince William County. We also serve San Diego County in California.
