Locked out of the house in Boston
A lockout can happen for several reasons, and you may not know whether the issue is the key, the lock, or simply a closed door. Use these safe checks to decide whether to call a locksmith.
What may be keeping you outside
A key may be misplaced or left inside, or the lock or key may not be working normally. Check your usual key spots and whether someone you trust has an authorized spare. If another entrance is already unlocked and safe to use, you can check it. Don’t force the door or try to bypass the lock.
When to call a locksmith
Call a locksmith if you have no safe, authorized way inside, or if a key is stuck, damaged, or not operating the lock normally. If someone inside faces immediate danger, contact emergency services rather than waiting for a routine service call.
What to confirm before authorizing work
Ask whether the locksmith serves your address, what the call-out and expected work will cost, and whether extra charges could apply. Confirm the price and proposed work before authorizing the job.
