Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if I’ve locked my keys in the car?
If your keys are locked inside, avoid forcing the door or using improvised tools. These can damage the lock or sensors.
Instead, call a qualified automotive locksmith who uses non-destructive techniques to safely unlock your vehicle. Most mobile locksmiths can reach you quickly, often within an hour, and restore access without damage.
Can a locksmith replace a car key without the original?
Yes, automotive locksmiths can create new keys even if you’ve lost the original. Using your vehicle identification and specialised cutting and coding equipment, they can generate a new key and program it to your vehicle’s system.
This ensures your replacement works exactly as the original did.
Can a locksmith fix a damaged car door lock?
Yes, a skilled automotive locksmith can repair or replace damaged car door locks without affecting the vehicle’s finish or electronics. They’ll inspect the cylinder, latch and key mechanism to identify the fault, then restore smooth operation using precision tools.
In most cases, the lock can be repaired on-site, saving you the cost and downtime of visiting a dealership.
