How can I prevent getting locked out?
Hide a copy with someone you trust, install a keypad or smart lock, keep a labeled spare car key off your keyring, and run a quick 'pat-down' (keys, phone, wallet) before any door closes behind you.
1. Give a spare to someone trusted nearby (not under the doormat). A neighbor in Indian Trail, NC is faster than any locksmith.
2. Install a keypad deadbolt or smart lock. Codes don't get lost in jacket pockets.
3. Keep a spare car key in your wallet or hidden externally on the vehicle (a dedicated lockbox under the bumper, not a magnetic case in plain sight).
4. Pat down before every door closes: keys, phone, wallet. Sounds silly, prevents 80% of lockouts.
5. Save your Indian Trail, NC locksmith number in your phone before you need it: 704-817-4634.
