Every Liverpool 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 saves a second trip into the city on a job that turns out to need parts not carried on the first call.
The price is confirmed on the phone and it holds on arrival. 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 multi storey car park in the city centre or a terraced street in Wavertree.
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 Liverpool 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.
Liverpool already has an established base of locksmiths, so the table above and the prices on this page are built to be checked against anyone else before the call is made, not just taken on trust.
Liverpool is the largest city on this coverage list, and the calls split by area rather than following one pattern.
Covering the city as one run, rather than treating each postcode as a separate job, is what keeps the price the same in Woolton as it is in the city centre.
Four details turn a call into a firm price in one conversation rather than three.
A photograph of the key settles anything the registration leaves open, and it costs nothing to send one before the visit.
Every service below is carried out in Liverpool and has its own page with the process, the price factors and the questions drivers ask.

Yes, Speke and Garston are covered at the same price as the rest of the city, including vehicles parked at the business parks near the airport.
Opening a locked vehicle starts from £80, with non destructive entry that leaves the door, lock and glass undamaged. The figure can move with the lock type and where the vehicle is parked.
