🔒 Locked Out of Your House? Here's What to Do! 🚪
It happens to the best of us—you step outside to grab the mail, walk the dog, or load up the car, and click… the door shuts behind you. 😱 You pat your pockets and feel that sinking feeling… you’re locked out. Before panic sets in, take a deep breath—we’ve got you covered. Here’s what to do if you find yourself locked out of your home in Langley, BC (or anywhere nearby).
1️⃣ Stay Calm and Check All Doors and Windows 🪟
First, do a full check of your property.
🔁 Walk around your home and try all the doors and ground-floor windows—sometimes one might be unlocked without you realizing it.
Important: Only try to enter through windows if it’s safe to do so. You don’t want to risk injury or damage.
2️⃣ Call Someone You Trust 📱
If you live with someone, give them a call.
👫 Maybe your partner, roommate, or family member has a spare key.
👵 Don't forget about neighbours, close friends, or relatives nearby who may have one too!
3️⃣ Avoid DIY Break-In Methods 🛑
We get it—it’s tempting to try and pop the lock with a credit card or remove a doorknob.
But…
🚫 This often causes more damage (and cost!) than it’s worth.
🛠️ Plus, many modern locks are designed to prevent exactly that.
