What Happens When You Call
You speak directly to the locksmith. We take your Smethwick location and car details, quote clearly, and head straight over. When we arrive, ownership is confirmed — photo ID plus the registration document or V5C — before we open the car or cut a new key there and then.
As a local 24-hour service, we aim to reach Smethwick callouts quickly at any hour. The price is agreed before work starts, so there are no surprises.
Frequently asked questions
Are you open 24 hours a day?
Yes — our emergency line is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call or WhatsApp 07367 634032 at any hour.
Will opening my car damage it?
We use professional non-destructive entry wherever possible, keeping paintwork and locks undamaged. If a lock is already damaged, we explain the options first.
What do I need to prove I own the car?
Every emergency job starts with an ownership check: photo ID plus the V5C logbook or other documents linking you to the vehicle.
Are night callouts in Smethwick charged extra?
A clear quote comes on the phone or WhatsApp before we set out, whatever the hour. The price agreed is the price you pay.
Key stuck in the ignition — can you help?
Yes — but never force it. A stuck key usually means a worn key or a jammed barrel. Call or WhatsApp 07367 634032 and we will come out to free the key safely and advise on the key or barrel.
Key turns but the car will not start — what is wrong?
Either the transponder chip is not being recognised or the fob battery is flat. We diagnose it on site and usually program a working key. Call or WhatsApp 07367 634032.
Car keys stolen — what should I do?
Call us on 07367 634032. We cut and program a new key and wipe the stolen key from the car's memory so it cannot start the car. You should also report the theft to the police.
