Locked out in a supermarket car park at night. They picked up first ring, arrived in under forty minutes and had me back in without a scratch. Calm, fair price, total lifesaver.

Lost the only key to my Transit — thought it'd be days off the road. Keyworx cut and programmed a new one at the kerbside the same morning. Proper professionals who clearly know vans.

Booked a spare key and a Ghost immobiliser after a break-in scare. Honest advice, no upselling, and they explained exactly how the security worked. Genuinely the most reassuring trades firm I've used.

Common questions
Still not sure?
Tell us the car and what's happened — we'll give you a straight answer and a price.
0333 772 1846Yes. In the vast majority of cases we open cars and vans using non-destructive techniques — no drilling, no broken glass. We carry specialist tools for modern locks and only ever escalate with your say-so if a vehicle is unusually secured.
Absolutely. Losing every key is more common than people think. We read the vehicle's data on-site, cut a new key to the correct profile and programme it to your immobiliser — no original needed and no trip to the dealer.
Most jobs are completed in 20 to 60 minutes at the roadside. A straightforward spare can be quicker; an all-keys-lost job on a higher-security vehicle takes a little longer. We'll give you a realistic time when you call.
Yes — it protects you as much as us. We'll ask to see your V5C logbook, photo ID or proof of purchase before cutting a key. It's a standard step for any accredited, security-first locksmith.
Not always. Sometimes it's a flat battery, a worn button or a fob that needs re-syncing — all quick fixes. If the electronics have failed we can supply and programme a replacement fob, and we'll tell you honestly which you need.
In most cases, yes — and we come to you. A main dealer often means towing the car in and waiting days. We do the same programming on-site, usually for noticeably less, with the same quality of key.
