Mobile auto locksmith in Chorlton

Chorlton is an M21 suburb where almost all the parking is on-street and almost all of it is busy. The streets around Beech Road, Wilbraham Road and Barlow Moor Road fill up in the evening and stay full, and a lot of the terraced housing has no driveway at all, so a car that will not open is nearly always sitting at the kerb on a residential street rather than in a car park. That is normal working conditions for us: the van does not need to be next to the car and carries everything the job needs.

The Metrolink runs through on the way to East Didsbury and Manchester Airport, with stops at Chorlton and St Werburgh's Road, and the water park and the meadows draw people down to the river all year. Between the tram stops, the precinct and Beech Road on a weekend evening, the two calls we take most here are lockouts and fobs that have stopped working after a long day parked up. Both are done where the car stands, and if the only key has gone we can cut and programme a replacement at the roadside.

Common questions

Things people in Chorlton tend to ask before booking.

There is nowhere to park on my street in Chorlton. Is that a problem for you?

No. We work at the kerb as a matter of course and the van does not have to be beside your car, so a full residential street or a permit bay makes no difference. Tell us the road name and roughly where the car is when you call, and if access is particularly tight mention it so we plan for it.

Can you come to Chorlton Water Park if I lose my key there?

Yes. It is an all-keys-lost job done in the car park rather than by moving the vehicle. Bring photo ID and the V5 or other proof of ownership, since we confirm the car is yours before cutting a key. On most vehicles we can also erase the lost key so it will not start the engine if it is found later.
