A specialized set of tools designed for unlocking vehicles, particularly when keys are unavailable or inaccessible. These kits typically contain a variety of implements, including wedges, inflatable tools, long-reach tools, and various specialized picks, enabling operators to manipulate door locking mechanisms without causing damage to the vehicle. The use of such a kit allows roadside assistance providers to gain entry to a vehicle to retrieve keys locked inside, address emergency situations, or facilitate towing services.
The availability of vehicle entry tools is critical for efficient roadside assistance and emergency response. These tools reduce delays and prevent property damage that might occur from forced entry. Historically, gaining entry to locked vehicles involved potentially destructive methods. Modern kits offer a non-destructive alternative, preserving vehicle integrity while resolving access issues. The ability to quickly and safely access a vehicle provides significant value to both the service provider and the vehicle owner.
