Frequently Asked Questions
Explore common questions about locksmith services and how to choose the best provider for your needs.
How much does Pop-A-Lock cost?
Situations vary. Call Pop-A-Lock New Orleans at 504-588-2192 for a quote.
Will you damage my car when you unlock it without a key?
The short answer is no.
The tools our mobile locksmiths use are designed specifically for your vehicle. In fact, Pop-A-Lock designed special proprietary tools to be able to open vehicles without damaging them. So, other companies cannot as easily prevent damage when they open the door.
However, certain vehicles that require the use of an “under the window or swan tool” can possibly cause damage to after-market tint. In these instances, we suggest inquiring about getting a key made to open. While it may cost a little more, it is guaranteed NOT to scratch after-market tint.
Can you help if a kid is locked in my car?
This situation happens more often than you might expect. It’s not uncommon for us to see 10 or more of these calls on any given day. Though occasionally we have responded to child neglect cases, typically, the situations we come across could happen to anyone because many vehicles today are self-locking.
What do I do if I lock my children in my car?
Call 911 immediately. They will forward you to the Fire Department who will dispatch a Pop-A-Lock car locksmith anywhere in the New Orleans area. Through our Emergency Door Unlock program we will unlock a car or home if a child, senior, or any person’s life is in danger for FREE.
What can I do if my key is stuck in the ignition and it will not turn?
The safest thing is to call Pop-A-Lock New Orleans for a free estimate on repairing or replacing the ignition cylinder. DO NOT attempt to force the ignition as you may break the key off costing you even more money and repairs. Pop-A-Lock can repair or replace most ignition cylinders, and we keep these cylinders in stock on the most problematic vehicles.
What makes some car and/or motorcycle keys so expensive to make?
Vehicle security, like everything else, is constantly evolving. Most late-model vehicles are now equipped with a type of anti-theft system called transponders. A lot of vehicles no longer use a conventional key and lock system, but instead use an electronic key fob. To program these,, auto locksmiths have to invest in the equipment and training to generate working keys and fobs. Also, the key blanks and fobs themselves are a lot more expensive than your standard metal key blank.
Can you program transponder keys?
Yes, we can!
Pop-A-Lock New Orleans is your one-stop shop for transponder keys. Our technicians are experienced in programming transponder keys to sync with your car’s immobilizer system, ensuring your vehicle’s security.
What should I do if my key breaks off in the ignition or door lock?
Is it true that I have to go to the dealer to get keys made for my car?
No, you do not have to go to the dealer to get a new key made for your car. Most experienced auto locksmiths, like the professionals at Pop-A-Lock New Orleans, can generate a key for your car. All it takes is the proper equipment and proper training. Our technicians can come to you, create a new key (even if it is transponder-equipped), and get you back on the road in no time. You’ll save yourself time and money!
What does it mean to do an on-site battery installation?
One of our skilled technicians comes to your location – wherever you are in the greater New Orleans area – and replaces your battery on-site. As an additional service, we take your old battery or core with us, since these batteries must be disposed of properly.
What if my car battery has a warranty? Would it still make sense to use your services?
It could…if your car battery is still under warranty, we recommend calling them and getting a quote. It is possible, even under warranty, you will get a better price with Pop-A-Lock! Even under warranty, a battery is prorated and could be more expensive than the aftermarket version. (Not to mention the time you will spend waiting for service at your dealership!) With Pop-A-Lock onsite battery replacement, you’ll get a free, no-obligation evaluation of your battery and charging system.
Will Pop-A-Lock perform a tire change on the freeway?
If the vehicle is in a safe location for both our technician and the customer we will perform the tire change on the freeway. If it is not, we will request the customer move the vehicle to a safe location before the technician performs a tire change.
What areas in New Orleans do your locksmith services cover?
Our mobile locksmiths are able to service all neighborhoods in New Orleans, providing fast and reliable automotive locksmith services wherever you are.
How much do you charge for auto locksmith services?
Call 504-588-2192 to get a quote for the specific service you need!
What should I do if I’m locked out of my car in New Orleans?
Contact us immediately for fast and professional lockout assistance and stay in a safe location until we arrive.
How can a locksmith help with car key extraction?
Yes, our auto locksmiths can remove keys that are stuck in door locks and ignitions. Attempting to remove a stuck key yourself could result in further damage. Call Pop-A-Lock New Orleans and one of our technicians will come to you to extract your keys.
