You need to get somewhere. Maybe it’s an important meeting, the afternoon school pickup or a dinner date.
There’s just one problem: you can’t get into or start your car.
There are many reasons you might be stranded:
- Broken keys
- Faulty ignition or locks
- A busted transponder key
- A lockout (whoops!)
Whatever the cause, the end result is the same: unexpected delays in your plans. You might even have to cancel altogether!
Is time tight right now? We get it. That’s why an auto locksmith is dedicated to not only helping you get back on the road – but to do it without wasting
your valuable time.
An emergency auto locksmiths saves time by… coming to you
There are many reasons to decide against going to a dealership for key problems.
Chief among them is time – when getting key problems fixed at a dealership, expect a lot of waiting around for:
- A tow truck
- Getting to your dealership
- Waiting in line
- Picking up your car on Monday (if it’s a weekend)
We’ll let you in on a bit of a secret though: many dealerships don’t even have an on-site locksmith.
Some might have one on retainer that they call whenever needed. Others break out the phone book and call the first number that pops up.
Essentially, you’ll be calling a locksmith… just with more steps in-between and a higher fee at the end of the day!
Why do people put up with this? Simply put, because many assume they’re getting a better deal or better service when they remain loyal to their dealership.
Luckily, your mobile auto locksmith comes to you wherever you are.
By cutting out the middleman, you guarantee yourself a same-day fix. With a bit of luck, you might even be back on the road within the hour.
An emergency auto locksmiths saves time by… offering out-of-hours service
Your locksmith knows that most car key dramas don’t happen during business hours. After all, you’ll be at work for most of the day, not in your car!
That also means that for most of us, we’ll first notice car key problems at 5pm when we head home.
If your auto locksmith also clocks off at 5, that might leave you in a bit of a pickle!
Luckily, your locksmith saves you time by coming to you, even after-hours.
Let’s use ourselves as an example. Our service hours run from 9am-5pm business hours Monday to Friday. Then we have our after hours emergency service,
which is by appointment – and that includes both weekends and public holidays too.
You can call us during business hours for immediate service. Or call us after hours to book in an emergency appointment. We’ll be there quick smart whenever
you have car key or lock emergencies.
An emergency auto locksmiths saves time by… cutting replacement keys on-the-spot
Your emergency auto locksmith travels around with all the tools of the trade in the back of their van.
That means we have everything we need to:
- Cut new keys (no original needed)
- Program transponder keys
- Dismantle lock and ignition chambers
- Get you back in after a lockout
- Remove jammed keys
All of this happens on-the-spot. No need to tow your car anywhere or go back to your locksmith’s base of operations for essential tools.
This saves you precious minutes and minimises waiting time – you still might make dinner after all!
An emergency auto locksmiths saves time by… eliminating the need for alternate transport
Even if your car’s out of commission, life goes on. You still need to go to work, meet your obligations and run errands.
You could take public transport. But with Metro’s history of punctuality (or rather, a lack of it), it can be frustrating.
Another option is Uber. However, that still doesn’t match the convenience of your own car. It might be great for the odd trip here or there, but daily
fees can add up!
Finally, you could hire a car. Needless to say, this is the most expensive option of them all.
By coming to and fixing problems on-the-spot, your auto locksmith gets you back on the road in no time. That eliminates all the planning that normally
happens when your car is out of action.
