Absolute legend....daughter locked keys in van....30 seconds and van opened 👍🏼

You Sir are a legend !!! Bought van with only 1 key, like you auto lock on door clicked in, I'm locked out. Searched the web but all say it can't be done - but you did it !!!. No major task, just did what you said ( even though I was sceptical !!) Worked a dream, all damage is behind the number plate, no one would be any the wiser. Should I do it again I can just drop the plate and enter the same way, even if the key is in the front I can remove dividing compartment barrier and climb over. You've just saved me, and I'm sure many others, hundreds of pounds. Graet Guy. Thanks.

YOU, my friend, are a GENIUS!!! 1 day searching the web = failed. 1 day talking to 'professionals' = failed. 2 days trying to open the bonnet, pick the locks, bashing things with hammers = failed. Your super simple solution 6 minutes. WOW!! as I said. GENIUS!!

Legend! Keys fell out of pocket while retrieving tools on a job. Thankfully I had pulled out my drills, a selection of bits and as always had my leatherman. Took me longer to fill the hole than it did to open the van. As always, I'm shocked by the insecurity of vehicles, this is why you take a few minutes at then end of the day to remove tools people!

Today I locked myself out of my late 2011VW caddy; key fob was in my work belt when I closed the doors the van locked; so; the windows were open 4 inches both sides however the handles both sides didnt open also lock/unlock buttons did not work van was double locked. VW said there were nothing I could do apart from tow the van to them and get a key sorted would take 7+ days (windows were open not ideal + a week off work) I did exactly what you suggested in your video; drilled a hole behind the reg plate (£10 bit) worked a treat your video saved me hundreds and I can go back to work! Whoever disliked your video is an idiot; this was my best option van was parked miles away from home. Now instead of paying hundreds and hundreds to replace a rear window and a shield or to tow the van to VW; Ill just pay £150 for a 2nd key and no time off work. Big Thanks mate.

I assume even if you would have broken the window, ( I know is was a joke ) you still wouldn't have been able to open the door would you? I have a 2010 ex British gas van and they have handles inside now because the gas fitters going in the back got locked in if the doors closed

Bought my van today and the door shut with the keys in the ignition in the sales yard, click ! deadlock on, me stood there like a right wazzock. Salesman came out armed with a bit of ally rod, fed it in the door gap and pressed the remote, job done. I shall now investigate getting that deadlock disabled it's a crap idea. thanks for the upload though, I may have to use it in future if I can't get round the deadlock.

Most reputable auto locksmiths would be able to pick the lock and would charge anywhere between £55 & £75 for a daytime, weekday call out. Most will get to you within an hour and should take no more than 15-20 minutes to pick it, with no damage and no holes drilled.

Since looked into this and the cheapest I found was £90+vat so how ever much it is. Mine was still the cheapest option as it cost £0 👍
@hairychris716 жыл бұрын
The locksmiths in your area are on good money. I'm a locksmith and for a daytime, weekday call out I charge a flat rate of £55 (not VAT registered) for vehicle opening and I am more expensive than some of my competitors locally, but you get the quality of service you pay for. I only charge £95 if you call me out overnight at the weekend.

It’s not his fault if people use the info for criminal activity. As he said there is info on VW website of where the door lock is, they could just as easy do it using VWs information.
