Unless there is an immediate threat to life, like a child being locked in a home or car, breaking windows does not usually end well. First of all, the shards of glass can cause serious injury. Second, it is usually more entailed and more expensive to fix a broken window than a broken lock.

Preparing in Advance
Although emergencies can never be anticipated, there are some things that you can do to plan in advance. Below is our quick list of what you can do right now, to be ready for locksmith emergencies:
- Have an extra set of keys for you car, home and office easily accessible. Make sure a friend or family members knows where you keep them. It would be wise to keep your extra house key at your office, and your extra office key at your house.
- Write down in advance the phone number of a reliable locksmith and include this number with your other emergency contacts. When something happens, you”ll know who to call.
- Consider purchasing a key finder. These are usually Bluetooth devises that attach to your key chain. If you are within a proscribed radius of your keys, you can activate the keyfinder and it will make a sound, allowing you to find the key. Keyfinders are pretty inexpensive and can really save the day. The downside of a keyfinder is that since it uses Bluetooth technology, you need to be somewhat close to the keys to find them. But if they’re under a seat in your car or behind the sofa in your living room, the you’ll be in range to find them.
