To a person of a certain mindset, it's always tempting to take matters into your own hands. Fixing a leaky tap with a wrench in one hand and a YouTube tutorial in the other may give you an unrivalled sense of accomplishment. However, when it comes to automotive locksmithing, it's crucial to resist the urge to DIY.
Why DIY Locksmithing is a Bad Idea
- Damage to your vehicle. Attempting to pick a lock or force open a car door can cause significant damage to your vehicle's locking mechanism. This can lead to costly repairs.
- Frustration and wasted time. Locksmithing often requires specialised tools and techniques that the average person doesn't possess. This may not be obvious from the outset leading to wasted time when you could have called a locksmith straight away.
- Security and safety risks. Improper attention to detail when taking apart and reconstructing lock components can leave your vehicle vulnerable to theft, and you might even be risking personal injury.
- Voiding your warranty. Understandably, many car manufacturers void warranties if unauthorised repairs are made to the vehicle's locking system.
