    Questions people ask

    How quickly can you get to me?

    It depends where you are and what time it is. Ring us and we'll give you an honest arrival time before we set off.

    Can you make a key if I've lost all of them?

    Yes. We cut a new key and program it to your car where it's parked, so there's no need to get it towed to a dealer.

    How much will it cost?

    Every car and key is different, so call or WhatsApp with your make and reg and we'll give you a price up front. No hidden extras.

    Will you damage my car getting in?

    No. We use proper entry tools to open the car without damaging the doors, locks or paintwork.

    Are you really open at 3am?

    Yes, we're open 24 hours. Lockouts and lost keys don't keep office hours, so neither do we.
