🚨 YOUR CAR KEY HAS A SECRET… AND IT COULD SAVE YOU FROM GETTING LOCKED OUT!

Most modern car keys have a hidden emergency key blade.

If your key fob battery dies — or your car battery goes flat — your remote locking may stop working.

🔑 That little blade can often unlock your door manually.

BUT CHECK IT NOW!

✅ Make sure it’s cut
✅ Find the mechanical keyhole
✅ Make sure it actually unlocks your door

Don’t wait until you’re locked out to find out it doesn’t work! 😬

DID YOU KNOW YOU HAD ONE? 75% of our customers didn’t realise or they didn’t know where the key hole was.

2 minutes checking now could save you a lot of hassle later.

If you get stuck, comment SHOW ME and a photo of your key. It may help someone else too!

🚨 𝗔 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗟-𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗘 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥: 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗔𝗟𝗪𝗔𝗬𝗦 𝗖𝗛𝗢𝗢𝗦𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗣𝗘𝗦𝗧 𝗔𝗨𝗧𝗢 𝗟𝗢𝗖𝗞𝗦𝗠𝗜𝗧𝗛

We had a customer contact us who was 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆 after another auto locksmith attended their Citroën.

Unfortunately, the locksmith didn’t have the required key in stock and the job couldn’t be completed.

They were told it was a Citroën key with a Peugeot blade — something that, for an experienced automotive locksmith, is a very common blade application, and they actually have the same key blade.

The customer then contacted us.

Our price was £𝟮𝟯𝟬.

They were understandably shocked because the other locksmith had quoted £𝟭𝟱𝟬.

And this is exactly why we say:

🔑 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗖𝗛𝗢𝗢𝗦𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗔𝗨𝗧𝗢 𝗟𝗢𝗖𝗞𝗦𝗠𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗢𝗡 𝗣𝗥𝗜𝗖𝗘 𝗔𝗟𝗢𝗡𝗘.

£150 sounds much better than £230…

𝗕𝗨𝗧 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗛𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗦 𝗜𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗝𝗢𝗕 𝗖𝗔𝗡’𝗧 𝗕𝗘 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗧𝗘𝗗?

You could end up:
❌ Still stranded
❌ Losing hours of your holiday
❌ Having to find another locksmith
❌ Potentially paying twice
❌ Dealing with even more stress

When choosing an auto locksmith, ask a few questions before booking:

✅ 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲/𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹?
✅ 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁?
✅ 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗸𝗲𝘆/𝗯𝗹𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗸?
✅ 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘃𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲’𝘀 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺?
✅ 𝗜𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗾𝘂𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗯?
✅ 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗜 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄𝘀?
✅ 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱?
✅ 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘆?

A reputable auto locksmith should be happy to answer these questions.

We would much rather give you an honest price and tell you exactly what is involved than give you a cheap price just to secure the job.

Because when you’re standing next to your vehicle with no working key — 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀.

💬 𝗦𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿:

𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗣𝗘𝗦𝗧 ≠ 𝗕𝗘𝗦𝗧

And sometimes…

𝗶𝗳 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗼 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲, 𝗶𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗯𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝘀. 🔑
