Mobile auto locksmith in Heywood

Heywood is an OL10 town with no National Rail station, which shapes almost everything about how people here use a car. The heritage line from Bury runs into Heywood but it is not a commuter service, so if the car will not start in the morning there is no easy alternative. Most of the housing sits close in around Market Street and York Street, with Darnhill, Hopwood, Back o' th' Moss and Captain Fold spreading out from it, and nearly all of it is on-street parking.

The other half of the town is Heywood Distribution Park off the M62 at junction 19, one of the biggest logistics sites in the north west. Drivers and warehouse staff there work round the clock and park for the length of a shift, and a key lost or locked in a cab at three in the morning is a job we do at the vehicle rather than one that waits for a garage to open. We cover the whole of OL10, from Birch and Hopwood by the motorway up through the town centre to Summit and the Bury boundary.

Common questions

Things people in Heywood tend to ask before booking.

I drive for a firm at Heywood Distribution Park and my keys are locked in. Can you get out at night?

Yes. The Distribution Park runs round the clock and so do a lot of our calls. Give us the unit number, the registration and the gate you came in by, and tell the gatehouse we are expected so we are not turned away. We open vehicles without damage, and if the key is lost rather than shut inside we can cut and programme a replacement at the vehicle.

There is no train from Heywood. If my only key is lost, how long is the car off the road?

Usually not long, and it should not need moving at all. We come to the car wherever it is parked, prove ownership from your ID and the V5 or other paperwork, then cut and programme a new key on the spot. On most vehicles we can also erase the lost key so it will no longer start the engine. That avoids a recovery truck and a dealer booking, which is what would otherwise keep the car standing for days.
