Frequently asked questions
How quickly can an auto locksmith reach me in Small Heath?
Arrival time depends on where we are when you call. We give you an honest estimate on the phone, and as a local business we aim to reach Small Heath quickly.
Will you damage my car when opening it?
We use professional non-destructive entry methods wherever possible, so your paintwork and locks stay undamaged.
Can you make a new car key if I have lost all my keys?
Yes. In most cases we can cut and program a new key on site, without needing the original.
Do I need to go to the dealer for a replacement key?
Usually not. A mobile auto locksmith can often replace and program a key at your location.
How much does car key replacement cost?
It depends on your car make, model, year and key type. Call 07367 634032 with your registration and we will give a clear quote before any work begins.
What do I need to prove I own the car?
Photo ID plus proof of ownership such as the V5C logbook or other documents linking you to the vehicle.
What hours do you work?
Call 07367 634032 and we will confirm our current availability when you call.
My key will not turn in the ignition. What causes that?
Common causes are a worn key blade, a damaged ignition barrel, or a steering lock that has engaged. Do not force it, as forcing can snap the key. Call 07367 634032 with the symptoms and we will diagnose it at your location.
Can you remove a broken key from a lock?
Yes. We use specialist broken key extraction tools that grip the snapped fragment without damaging the lock wafers or ignition barrel. Once removed, we can cut a replacement key on site.
What is an ignition barrel?
The ignition barrel is the lock cylinder where you insert the key to start the car. When its internal wafers wear or jam, the key sticks or will not turn. We can repair or replace the barrel at your location in many cases.
