There are times when you get stuck in or outside the car due to a failure in its locking system, or due to lost car keys, broken keys, etc. At that moment all you can think is of finding the duplicate keys or breaking the door or window of your vehicle.

Most of the car these days come with auto lock and child lock facilities on the door. Few cars have manual opening system, which means that one must rely on professional help when facing such a problem. All vehicle locks have an alternate method of opening. This can be resolved by following a few steps.

1. Make Sure you Check the Least Obvious First: What we tend to forget the most is the auto key lock on the key chain. Though being the most obvious solution, we tend to forget it. Check the key fob. However, since it is operated by a battery it may get drained out after several years. It is thus important that replace your batteries on a regular basis so that it comes handy in such situations. If there is no major technical issue this will surely work. One can also approach a car locksmith for help in this regard.

Check Locks of other Doors: If lock of the driver's door gets stuck and is not working check the other doors and their respective locks. Avoid rushing to a mechanic or breaking the door panel. Ripping off the panel is the last thing you want to do.

Avoid Making Harsh Decisions: Approach a locked vehicle door with a cool mind. Avoid replacing parts and wires without seeking professional help first. If locks of the doors are not working then use blown fuse only as the last option. Also, if the other doors are working well then chances are that the issue is with the door lock solenoid. One can approach lock specialist for such help.

Check Manual Mechanism: If you have locked keys in car, you can also check the door lock manually. Many professionals are area able to activate the manual mechanism by using a flat rod and inserting it into your vehicle via the glass panel. At times the door opens with forced mechanism if the lock is stuck. Practice this only is case of emergency.

Check the Wires: At times you might have a frayed or a broken wire. This could be one of the reasons of locked door. This can be checked by holding the lock button and moving slowly open and close button of the door. This will allow us to know if the wires are the cause of the locked door. Get the wires repaired or replaced.

See a Mechanic: If all the solutions you try fail it is time to go see a mechanic. He should be trained and experienced enough to handle such problems with your car. As the automatic locking system is a little different from the traditional manual one, mechanics should have hands on experience while fixing the door. He should try all the simple ways before going in for any major repair.

Locked doors in the car should be immediately replaced or repaired. They can be addressed by following the above mentioned steps or by seeking professional help.
