Emergency car opening
We open a locked car at your address in Sofia without damage to the paint, the seals or the mechanisms. We use specialist tools and work with all makes.
About the service
A car most often stays locked because the key is inside the cabin or the boot, it is lost or broken, or its battery is flat. Sometimes the cause is a worn lock or damage after a theft attempt. Do not use force: breaking a window or drilling a lock usually costs more than the opening itself.
We open with specialist tools, without harming the paint, the seals or the mechanisms. If you then need a new key, key programming or a lock repair, we finish the job in the same place, so no tow truck is needed.

- The key is lost or broken in the lock.

Frequently asked questions
Will my car be damaged when you open it?
Our goal is to open without damage to the paint, the seals and the mechanisms. We use specialist tools for precise work, not brute force.
Which car makes do you work with?
We open all makes of cars.
How much does emergency car opening cost?
The price starts from €40. The visit to your address is listed separately in the price list: €20 during working hours and €30 outside them. Prices are indicative and may be adjusted after inspection.
What should I do while I wait?
Never leave children or animals in a locked car. If there is such a danger, call 112 first, and then us.
What should I do if the key is broken in the lock?
If part of the key sticks out, you can carefully try to grab it with pliers or tweezers. Do not take the lock apart or drill it, because that damages the lock and the mechanism. If it does not work, call us.
