Practical Ways to Never Get Locked Out Again
The single most effective habit is touching your key before shutting any door. It takes half a second and prevents most lockouts.
Keep a spare somewhere reachable: with a trusted neighbour, in a desk drawer at work, or in a combination lockbox at home. A spare hidden on the vehicle itself is an invitation to thieves.
If your car supports a phone app with remote unlock, enrol before you need it and confirm the login works.
For families sharing vehicles, a second physical key is far cheaper than repeat emergency callouts.
