# Car lockout San Juan de Alicante: keys inside, every door locked

The shopping went in, the boot came down, and the keys were on the seat. Or a door locked itself with the engine running. The car is opened without damage, wherever it is in Sant Joan, and you drive away with your own keys.

- Opened without damage
- Proof of ownership checked
- Price agreed before work starts

**Only lockout assistance and vehicle opening are offered.** We do not cut, replace, duplicate or program car keys, and nothing is done with keys of any vehicle.

## Opening a locked car, step by step

1. **Where, which car, where the keys are**

  The car park or street, the make and model, and whether the keys are on a seat, in the boot or in the ignition.
2. **An honest estimate**

  How long the drive is likely to take to where you are. Somewhere shaded to wait, if it is summer.
3. **Price, then opening**

  Agreed with you first. Then the door is opened through the seal, with no force on the lock.
4. **Documents checked**

  ID and the car’s papers, or the hire agreement, before you drive off.

## Where cars get locked in Sant Joan

**The carretera de Valencia.** The N-332 is lined with large stores, retail parks and leisure centres, each with a big car park where rows of cars look alike. Give the name of the shop you parked by, and a WhatsApp pin: [keys locked in the car at the retail park](https://locksmithsanjuandealicante.es/guides/keys-locked-in-the-car-at-the-retail-park/) has what to do while you wait.

**By the hospital.** The Hospital Universitario de Sant Joan is one of the main hospitals of the province, with a busy coming and going of patients and visitors. If your car is locked there, say which entrance or building you are nearest to.

**Fiesta nights and market days.** During the Fogueres in June and the Cristo de la Paz fiestas in September, and on Saturday mornings when the street market fills carrer Mercat and carrer Ordana, cars end up parked further out. A pin saves a search.

## What is never done with vehicles

Nothing on this list is offered, for any make of car, motorbike or van:

- No key cutting and no key copying, for any lock at all
- No spare or extra keys: not for a front door, a gate, a garage, a storeroom or a letterbox
- No car keys of any kind: none cut, supplied, replaced or programmed
- No transponder chips and no remote fobs for vehicles
- No work on ignition switches or ignition barrels
- No keys for motorbikes, scooters or vans

## Keys inside the car: the usual questions

### Does getting into a locked car leave marks on the seals or the paintwork?

No. Cars are opened with wedges and long-reach tools through the door seal, the way they are designed to allow, without forcing the lock or marking the paint.

### The keys are in the boot and the boot is locked. Can that be opened?

Usually by opening a door first and then releasing the boot from inside or from the key itself. Say on the phone where the keys are, so the right approach is planned.

### The car key is gone for good, not locked inside. Can you help with that?

No. No car keys are made, cut, supplied or programmed here, of any kind. For a lost key, contact the dealer or a specialist in vehicle keys.

### Which papers prove the car is mine when they are locked inside it?

ID and the vehicle documents once the car is open, or a rental agreement for a hire car. The documents are often inside, so they are checked straight after opening.
