About this service
Locking your keys in the car, or losing them, can leave you stranded at home, work or the roadside. Many cars can be opened by a skilled locksmith without damaging the paintwork, windows or locks.
Vehicle security varies a lot, so we ask for your make, model and year when you call and tell you straight away whether we can help and what it will cost.
If you've lost your keys altogether, ask us about replacement options.

Useful advice

- Have your registration, make, model and year ready
- Keep proof of ownership to hand – we'll ask for it
- Don't use a wedge or coat hanger – you can damage seals and wiring

SSue HorganVerified customer"Had someone available to sort the lock out within the timeframe specified and the price was notified up front, the locksmith texted to confirm appointment and arrived when he said he would after confirming our address. Problem was solved in a reasonable amount of time and I paid what I was quoted when I telephoned."
CChristianVerified customer"I was expecting to get my locks smashed in but was met with a professional who carried out the re-entry with no fuss, great speed and reasonable price."
