Mobile auto locksmith in Pontefract

Pontefract has three railway stations on three different lines, Monkhill, Tanshelf and Baghill, which is unusual for a town this size and is the single most useful thing to be clear about when you ring. Saying you are at the station is not enough here, because the three are not close together and they are approached quite differently.

The racecourse is the other thing that shapes our work in WF8. On a race day the car parks fill completely and empty again in a couple of hours, and keys go missing between the enclosure and the car in a way they do not on an ordinary afternoon. The hospital runs shifts round the clock with its own parking, the castle and the market take the town centre traffic, and the housing at Chequerfield, Carleton, Friarwood and out to Darrington fills in around. All of it is worked at the vehicle.

Common questions

Things people in Pontefract tend to ask before booking.

My car is at Pontefract station and the key will not work. Which station do you need?

Tell us whether it is Monkhill, Tanshelf or Baghill, because Pontefract has all three and they are on separate lines in different parts of the town. With that plus the registration and roughly where the car is parked we will come straight to it and sort the key at the vehicle.

I have lost my keys at the racecourse. Can you replace them there?

Yes, and race days are a regular call for us. It counts as all keys lost, so bring photo ID and the V5 or other proof of ownership. We cut and programme a new key at the car in the car park, and on most vehicles the lost key is erased so it will no longer start the engine.
