I tell tenants if they lock out we will cone unlock for $50 IF we are in the area, or for free if we are onsite (which is almost never). Otherwise call a locksmith. I remind them that windows cost $600 and doors cost $950, so don't break in.

After the first lock out I suggest they get themselves a "lockbox" with a combo code or give a key to a trusted relative or friend, or leave one hidden in their car.

This is kind of a no-brainer.
