Being locked out of your home or car always seems to happen at the worst possible time—usually late at night or when you’re in a rush. The most important thing is to stay calm and stay safe.

Avoid these common mistakes:

• Don’t try to “pick” the lock: Modern locks are complex. Using a hairpin or a screwdriver can damage the internal mechanism, making it much more expensive to fix later.
• Don’t break a window: The cost of replacing high-quality glass is almost always higher than the fee for a professional locksmith.
