Lost car or van keys? Locked out?

- The key won’t turn in the ignition 

- Ignition barrel issues like stiffness, looseness, or jamming 

- The steering wheel won’t unlock, indicating potential steering lock problems 

- The key is stuck in the ignition 

- You need to wiggle the key for the vehicle to start 

These ignition barrel issues can escalate quickly, so it's advisable to utilise our mobile locksmith services to have them checked before the barrel or lock fails completely.

I understand that ignition barrel issues and steering lock problems can be costly to address. That’s why I first conduct full diagnostics to rule out cheaper, simpler causes — such as key wear, immobiliser faults, electrical issues, or steering sensors.

If the fault is mechanical, our mobile locksmith services can help by:

- Repairing or replacing worn ignition barrels built to existing key

- Replacing damaged steering locks

- Supplying and programming new keys if required

- Resetting or deleting old keys for security

My aim is always to resolve these issues in the most cost-effective, non-destructive way possible.

I come to your home, workplace, or roadside, saving you the cost and hassle of towing your vehicle to a garage. All work is carried out on-site using dealer-level tools and high-quality parts.
