Lockout Service
Lockout Service in Fredericksburg, VA, Mobile Help for Cars, Homes, and Offices
The first thing to know when you’re locked out is that you don’t need to force anything. Prying at a door, trying to slip something through a window seal, or calling someone who isn’t sure what they’re doing can turn a simple lockout into a damaged lock or a broken door frame. A mobile locksmith with the right tools gets you back inside faster and without the collateral damage.
FXBG Keys LLC provides mobile lockout service across our five-county service area in Virginia, including Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, Stafford, Culpeper, and Thornburg. We work Monday through Saturday and take emergency calls after hours. A technician comes to you with the tools to handle the job correctly wherever you are.
Car Lockouts
A vehicle lockout is one of the most common calls we get, and it’s one of the fastest jobs we do. Whether your keys are locked inside, lost, or the fob stopped working, we use non-destructive entry tools designed to open your car door without touching the paint, bending the weather stripping, or leaving any trace on the door frame. No coat hangers, no wedges jammed into door seals. Just the right tools used correctly.
We work on domestic, foreign, and European vehicles across a wide range of makes and models. If your keys are inside the car, we’ll have you back in quickly. If the keys are lost and you need a replacement, our car key replacement service handles cutting and programming on-site in the same visit, so you’re not left with an open car and no way to lock it again.
House and Residential Lockouts
Getting locked out of your home is stressful, whether you stepped outside for a moment and the door closed behind you, misplaced your keys, or had them stolen. We pick the lock rather than force it, which means your door opens normally and the hardware is exactly as you left it. There’s no damage to repair once you’re back inside.
If your keys are missing rather than just locked inside, it’s worth considering a rekey once you’re back in. Rekeying the lock means the missing keys can no longer open your door, which removes the security concern without requiring a full lock replacement. Our residential locksmith services cover rekeying, lock repair, and replacement if you need any of that handled while we’re there.
Office and Commercial Lockouts
A commercial lockout doesn’t just cause inconvenience, it stops business. Whether you’re locked out of an office, a retail space, or another commercial property, we treat it as a priority call. We apply the same care to commercial locks as we do to any other job, and if rekeying or hardware changes are needed afterward to maintain security, we handle that as well.
FXBG Keys LLC works on a wide range of commercial lock types, and our commercial locksmith services extend beyond lockouts to rekeying, lock installation, and master key systems if your business needs any of those addressed at the same time. The goal is always to get your doors working and your operation moving again with as little disruption as possible.
What to Expect When You Call
When you call, have a few things ready so we can get moving quickly:
- Your location and a description of the situation, vehicle, home, or business
- Whether the keys are locked inside or missing altogether
- For vehicle lockouts, your year, make, and model so we arrive prepared
- Some form of proof of ownership or residency, a driver’s license, registration, utility bill, or lease agreement is usually enough
We use non-destructive entry methods whenever possible, which means your lock functions normally after we leave. We’ll explain the approach and confirm the price before any work begins, so there are no surprises once the job is done.

Lockout Service FAQs
What if I do not have ID to prove I own the vehicle or home?
Our locksmith company will need some form of verification before we provide lockout service for a car, house, office, or other property. For a vehicle, registration, proof of insurance, or other documents that connect you to the car will usually work, and for a home, a lease, utility bill, or similar record is often enough. If you are not sure what you have available, contact our Fredericksburg locksmith team and we will walk through the options with you before we send a mobile locksmith.
My key fob stopped working and will not unlock the car. Can you help?
Yes. A dead battery is one common reason, but sometimes the key fob loses programming, the car key stops communicating with the vehicle, or there is another access issue inside the lock or electronic system. As part of our automotive services, we can help with car lockout situations, key replacement, and programming so you can regain access and get back into your car without waiting on a dealership.
What if I need a new key after a lockout?
If your keys are lost, broken, or locked inside, we can often cut and program a new car key during the same service call. Our locksmith services include key replacement, duplicate keys, and key duplication for many domestic and foreign vehicles, which helps avoid a second appointment. That means one visit can resolve the lockout and give you a working key before we leave the site.
Do you handle motorcycle lockouts?
Yes. Our professional locksmiths handle motorcycle lockouts along with car lockout, house, office, and commercial lockout calls. Have the year, make, and model ready when you contact us so we can confirm the right tools for your motorcycle and provide efficient mobile locksmith assistance in Fredericksburg, VA and the surrounding area.
Do you provide emergency lockout service for homes and businesses?
Yes. We provide emergency locksmith services for residential, commercial, and automotive lockouts. Whether you are locked out of a house, office, commercial buildings, or a vehicle, our local locksmith team can assist with secure entry and help determine whether rekey, lock repair, lock change, or lock replacement is needed after the lockout is resolved.
Can you unlock a car if the keys are locked inside?
Yes. Car lockout service is one of the most common calls we handle, and in many cases we can unlock the vehicle without damaging the lock, door, or window. If the keys are inside, broken, or missing completely, we can also discuss key replacement or a new car key if needed so you are not left without a solution after the door is opened.
Can you help with office lockouts and commercial lock problems?
Yes. We handle office and business lockouts as part of our commercial locksmith services. If the issue involves worn locks, lock repair, high security locks, rekey work, lock installation, or a master key system, we can assess the problem on-site and recommend the best options to keep your business secure.
What should I have ready when I call for lockout service?
Have your location, the type of property, and any details about the lock or keys ready when you call. For a vehicle, the make, model, and year are helpful, and for a house or office, it helps to know whether the door uses standard locks, high security locks, or newer hardware. This lets our Fredericksburg locksmith team bring the right tools and provide reliable, expert service with minimal delay and at a fair price.
Can you make a replacement key if mine broke in the lock?
Yes. If broken keys are part of the problem, we can remove the key, inspect the lock, and determine whether the lock still works properly. If needed, we can provide key duplication, key replacement, or rekey service so you have working keys again and the lock remains secure.
