Car Lockout in Fort Lauderdale
A car lockout in Fort Lauderdale starts at $99 and typically totals $99–164, day or night. We use car-entry tools that leave paint, seals and airbags alone, and check the car is yours before we hand back the keys.
A child or a pet inside a hot car: dial 911 first.

Where we find you
- Beach lots and garages along A1A and Las Olas — tell us the garage level and the nearest stairwell.
- Rental cars. The FLL Rental Car Center at 600 Terminal Drive houses a dozen rental companies in one building (Broward County). Once you've driven the rental into Fort Lauderdale, call the company's roadside line first — many prefer it — and keep the agreement handy if they send you to a local locksmith.
- Cruise parking. Port Everglades handled a record 4.77 million cruise passenger moves in fiscal 2025 (Seatrade Cruise), and the port spreads across three cities plus unincorporated county land (Port Everglades). Tell us the garage or lot: we'll say straight away whether it's inside Fort Lauderdale and whether we can make it before boarding.
- Mall lots. The Galleria's surface lots and garages on East Sunrise Boulevard (Wikipedia) and the lot at Coral Ridge Mall, 3200 North Federal Highway (MallsCenters).
- Hospital lots, day or night. Broward Health Medical Center at 1600 South Andrews Avenue (Broward Health), Holy Cross at 4725 North Federal Highway (Holy Cross) and Broward Health Imperial Point at 6401 North Federal (Broward Health) — visitors and night-shift staff alike.
- The Brightline garage at the downtown station, 101 NW 2nd Avenue, open 24 hours (Brightline). Back from Miami or Orlando with the keys on the seat? Tell us the level.
- Just off I-95. Most highway lockouts happen at a gas station or lot by an exit. Inside the city those are Davie Boulevard (26), Broward Boulevard (27), Sunrise Boulevard (29) and Cypress Creek Road (33) (FDOT); the exit number gets us to you fastest.
- After a show or a game. Lots around the Broward Center on the New River and Holiday Park, home of War Memorial Auditorium (FTL War Memorial).
- Downtown offices, after hours.
Keys locked in, or keys lost?
Locked in → we open the car. Lost → you need a new key cut and programmed: see car keys & fobs.
What to have ready
Make, model, year, where exactly the car is, and a Florida (or any) photo ID matching the car's paperwork or your FLL rental contract — it can stay locked inside until we open up.
Price and paying
From $99, usually $99–164, the same at 3 a.m. Plan on roughly 20 minutes from your call to our van pulling up anywhere in Fort Lauderdale; the call confirms it. The bill comes after the door is open, payable by card, phone wallet, Zelle or cash. Turn the price down once we're there and you owe nothing; calling it off before we arrive is free too.
Questions
Will opening the car set off the alarm?
It may; it stops once the key is back in your hand.
Can you open the trunk only?
On many cars, opening a door lets us release the trunk. Some need a different method — tell us the model.
Is roadside assistance cheaper?
If your plan covers it and the truck is close, go with them. If they quote an hour-plus wait, call us.
