For some unknown reason, you slammed the car door, but the keys remained inside. It doesn’t matter whether the central locking alarm system or human error worked incorrectly. What should we do now? Ideally, you should go home for spare keys, but what if your home is hundreds of kilometers away?
I suggest you familiarize yourself with a clever life hack on how to open a car door without a key.
Opening your car without a key
All we need is a strong nylon or synthetic thread.
We measure two meters and cut off this segment.
Fold it exactly in half and make a knot like this.
We tighten it.
The result is a loop like this.
Now we go to the car and insert this thread with a loop into the gap between the door. It is better to start from a sharp door corner.
We spread the thread to the sides so that it falls down outside the door.
Next, we try to catch the lock's release button with a loop.
The loop needs to fit exactly around it.
As soon as the button is in the loop, pull the thread in different directions. This is necessary so that the loop contracts and clasps the button with force.
Now carefully pull the threads and lift the button up.
The car door is open!
This not-so-complicated method can help you out in a difficult situation.
Important information:
- You have the right to open only your car in this way.
- You should not help anyone open the car using this method, especially strangers.
- Keep vehicle documents and identification with you in case questions arise from law enforcement or concerned persons.
