Burnley is the furthest town on the whole coverage list, and the question that usually comes with that is whether the price holds this far out. It does, which is why it is stated here before the call rather than quoted only on arrival.

Every Burnley job runs through the same four stages, and the first one happens on the phone before anybody drives anywhere.
The registration identifies the key system before the drive in, which matters more on a longer trip, since it saves a second visit on a job that turns out to need a part not carried on the first call.
The price is confirmed on the phone and it holds on arrival, with no distance charge added for being the furthest booking on the list that day. A lockout or a spare starts from £80, a lost key from £135 and a new ignition barrel from £120, with no VAT.
The work happens on site, whether that is a shopping street in Burnley or a residential road in Padiham.
Every key, the new one and the ones already carried, is tested on the doors, boot and ignition before the job closes.
All six jobs below are carried out in Burnley at the same starting prices charged in Wigan, because no call out fee is added anywhere in the radius.
From £135
A new key created from the vehicle when no working key is left, and the lost key deleted so it cannot start the vehicle again.
From £80
A second key cut and programmed from the working key while you wait. The cheapest key anyone buys.
From £80
Entry with opening tools rather than force, whether the keys are on the seat, in the boot or still in the ignition.
From £120
A replacement barrel coded to the keys you already carry, so no new set of keys is needed.
By key type
Transponder, remote and keyless keys coded to the vehicle, and blades cut from a key, a code or the lock.
From £135
Van keys including the separate load area key, with early starts for vehicles that have to be working.

All of it, along with Padiham next door. The town centre, Padiham, Brierfield, Hapton, Worsthorne, Rose Grove, Reedley and Harle Syke are covered at the same price.
A lockout or a spare key starts from £80 and a lost key starts from £135, with no VAT added. The directory listing for Burnley shows five locksmiths with no fixed price stated against any of them, which this page sets out plainly instead.
On a small number of older vehicles a spare can sometimes be self-programmed using a sequence in the handbook, but most vehicles built in the last decade need dealer level diagnostic equipment and manufacturer security access that a self programming attempt cannot reach.
Some policies include keys under personal possessions and some motor policies sell key cover as an add on, so the wording is worth checking before paying. The work is invoiced either way so there is paperwork to claim against.
