How to Survive Losing Your Keys

RBM Lock & Key is here to provide fast locksmith services.

Have you lost the keys to your house, business, or car? Here’s what to do:

Step 1. Don’t Panic.

Losing your keys can definitely be upsetting, especially if you need them quite urgently. For example, maybe you’ve locked your keys in the car with your pet inside, or maybe you’ve just pulled up to your business a few minutes before opening and realized you can’t find your door key. However, no matter how much stress and pressure you may be under, it is important not to panic! If you stay calm and think carefully, you might be able to come up with a solution such as calling a friend or family member who has a spare key or retracing your steps to find keys you’ve misplaced.

Step 2: Call the Locksmith.

Whether you know where your keys are (and just can’t access them right now) or you have lost them completely, you can call a locksmith like RBM Lock & Key to provide emergency lockout service. As your friendly neighborhood locksmith, we are always here to provide fast and effective assistance unlocking your car, home, or business. We offer 24/7 locksmith services because we know losing your keys can be a real emergency.

Step 3: Consider Replacing Your Locks.

If you have not been able to find your keys, you need to seriously consider replacing your locks. After all, if there is any possibility at all that someone else may have picked up your keys and associated them with your person or your address, your security is at risk. At RBM Lock & Key, we can provide lock replacement or lock rekeying to restore your peace of mind about your security.

Do You Lose Your Keys a Lot?

If this isn’t the first time you’ve lost your keys, you may want to consider electronic locks for your home or business. With electronic locks, you have the ability to control access to your home or business using a cell phone or an electronic key code. While electronic locks that make use of cell phone control will give you more features and options for home automation, you do of course need to have your phone with you to open the door! Cell phones are harder to misplace than keys but it does happen. With a lock that uses key codes, you don’t have to worry about this because as long as you remember your key code, you can get in your home or business.
