I think it is fair to assume that at some time in all of our lives we have made that silly mistake of locking ourselves out. Many times it is fine as someone else will be in the house, or we will be able to get keys from a spouse, partner or friend.

However, there are occasions when you slam the door shut with the keys on the shelf so you don’t forget them, only to forget them on an occasion we cannot contact anyone to get the spare keys.

Imaging the stress if you were not able to contact anyone, or the people with other keys were away? What are your options to regain entry to your property?

Well there are of course some drastic measures you can take (not recommended), like breaking windows, doors or locks. But that really is drastic and will result in an insecure property and possibly significant costs to get it all repaired.

If you are in the situation that you have locked yourself out, the first thing you should not do is panic and make a rash decision. In fact there really is no need to panic because luckily there are experts on hand that specialise in getting you back in to your home, at minimal cost.
