Can you attend a university or shared car park?

Usually yes, as long as we can get access to the vehicle. Tell us the parking arrangement when booking.

Are you cheaper than the dealer?

Often, but it depends on the vehicle and whether a genuine manufacturer key is required. AccuKey® gives you the actual quote rather than a claim.

Do you cover Leyland and Longridge?

Yes, both are within our normal coverage. Check your postcode when quoting to be certain.

What if my keys are locked inside the car?

That is a lockout rather than a lost key, and it is usually a shorter job. Tell us the vehicle and exactly where it is.

Around Preston

We cover the city and out through Fulwood, Ingol, Penwortham, Bamber Bridge, Leyland, Longridge and Broughton.

With a large student and commuter population, a lot of Preston work is on cars that live in shared car parks and on permit streets — worth mentioning when you book.

Still have one working key?

That is the easiest time to sort a second one. A spare is a planned appointment while the vehicle is in normal use; once the last key is gone, the job becomes longer and varies considerably by vehicle.
