Mobile auto locksmith in Prestwich

Prestwich is an M25 suburb on the Metrolink between Manchester and Bury, and Heaton Park sits along one whole side of it. The park is the biggest municipal park in Europe and its car parks are busy every weekend of the year, which makes it one of the more reliable places on our patch for a key to go missing: out of a coat pocket at the boating lake, or left on a bench somewhere between the hall and the tram stop. We come to the car park and finish the job there.

The rest of the town is the village around Bury New Road and the Longfield Centre, with Sedgley Park, Polefield, Butterstile and Rainsough around it and Simister out towards the motorway. It is a commuter suburb, so a lot of cars are left near the Prestwich or Heaton Park tram stops during the day and collected in the evening. That is the other half of our work here: a car that has sat since morning and now will not respond to the fob. Both jobs are done at the vehicle rather than at a garage.

Common questions

Things people in Prestwich tend to ask before booking.

I have lost my car key somewhere in Heaton Park. What happens next?

We treat it as an all-keys-lost job and do it in the car park. Bring photo ID and the V5 or other proof of ownership, because we confirm the car is yours before cutting a key for it. On most vehicles we can then cut and programme a new key at the car and erase the lost one so it will no longer start the engine.

Can you come to the Metrolink park and ride at Prestwich or Heaton Park?

Yes, both are straightforward for us to work in. Tell us which stop and roughly where the car is parked, along with the registration. If the fob has simply gone flat we can usually fix it on the spot; if the key has failed we can reprogramme it or cut a replacement at the vehicle.
