A locksmith will slide this thin, flexible metal between your window and weatherstripping in order to open the lock. This isn't a foolproof method, and should only be used in an emergency.

The notch on the Slim Jim allows you to access the control bar on the door of your vehicle's lock. It can be pulled down or pulled up, according to the type of lock. The locksmith can also alter the locking mechanism of your vehicle's doors without having to turn the ignition key.

This method is a good fit for older cars, since the majority of newer models utilize cables or electronic linkages to control their locks. If you try using the Slim Jim to open a modern lock, it may activate or activate the side airbags. It's best to let the locksmith handle it.

There are some things you can do to prepare for an opening of your car using a Slim Jim. You can find a suitable tool in your home by searching for something that is long and thin, like a ruler made of metal or a wire hanger. You'll need a pair pliers to secure the tool. Insert the notched side first then push the tool downwards into the lock out car of the car. Keep an eye out for any movement. Once you can see the lock begin to move, you can start pushing it upwards until the door opens.

2. Long Reach Tool

This long reach tool is perfect for reaching pull handles in recessed, tight spaces. It features a pre-bent shape to allow you to bend in any direction without exerting too excessive pressure. It can be folded to be compact for storage and has a soft coating that protects weather strip and paint. It also includes a window wedge to provide additional leverage, and numerous properties that shield the vehicle of your customer during the unlocking process. These include a rubber tip as well as a plastic strip and an extra paint protector.

When you're dealing with customers your professionalism will make you stand out from other service providers that don't use the right tools. The more you make use of these tools, the more easy it will be to resolve lockouts that affect all kinds of makes and models of vehicles.

3. Broken Key Extractor

A key extractor is a tool used to free fragments of a broken key inside the lock. Key extractors come in various sizes and shapes, but they are generally small hooks with a sharp tip. These hooks are inserted into a lock to look for nudges to connect a lost part. You can get one in a set including a lock pick and other tools essential to have. Choose a set with soft handles and a durable material.

Apply a spray lubricant prior using the key extractor. This will help the extractor slide through the lock to find the broken segment. It is also helpful to place the lock cylinder in a locked out of your car or an unlocked position to make it easier to retrieve any broken pieces. Once you've found the break, gently twist and pull the extractor through to get rid of it.

Look for a broken-key extractor that comes with lockpicks as well as other essential tools. You'll be ready in the event that your car key is damaged. The key extractor tool itself must have tiny hooks or a sharp end that is easy to grip. Consider its length, and also, to ensure that it will fit in your keyhole comfortably.

When you choose Low Rate Locksmith, you'll enjoy round-the-clock service and a mobile option that is available to you.

4. Wedge

Humans have used wedges for thousands of years to hunt (like a spear) to cut stones and wood, split logs and carve rocks, as well as hold objects in place. A wedge has two inclined planes that meet at the sharp edge, which can split apart solid objects.

The wedge can also be used in a wide variety of machines and tools for a wide range of purposes like cutting or splitting, slicing, and securing objects. The wedge-type door stop works by changing the direction in which force is applied. This is a way to prevent the door from being pushed.

Professional locksmiths use wedges to open a car door or body. It is essential to know the right amount of force to apply and where to put the wedge to avoid damaging it. If you use too much force or place the wedge in an incorrect spot, it can cause damage to the door or vehicle. The wedge should be placed in the large gap that is created between the body of the car and the car door. This is usually near the top corner of the rear door.

It is also important to remember that modern vehicles have more "give" in their doors due to rollover and side-impact safety standards that went into effect 10 years ago. Due to this, an inflatable wedge will allow you to disengage the door from the frame in order to allow you to insert your slim jim and unlock the car without damaging the vehicle. Remember, don't forget to deflate the wedge before attempting to remove it or you could accidentally re-pin the rod too tightly, causing further damage. This makes the entire procedure more difficult because you'll have to wait for a few minutes waiting for the wedge to return to its normal state.
