Our nearest patch
If you are stood next to a locked car in Bramley, you have called the right people. Our base on Ederoyd Mount is barely two miles away, whatever the hour.
We know the roads well because we drive them daily. Town Street, Broad Lane, Hough Lane, the estates off Swinnow Road and the parking around Bramley Shopping Centre are all routine ground for us.
What we get called out for here
- Keys locked in the car at Bramley Shopping Centre or outside the health centre, sorted with non-destructive entry
- Lost keys at Bramley Baths or Bramley Park, where we cut and program a new key at the car
- Stiff ignitions on older cars that finally refuse to turn, which is barrel work
- Second keys for families sharing one car, booked in as a spare key visit
- Fobs that have given up after a few years in a coat pocket
Spares are cheaper here than anywhere
Because Bramley is on our doorstep, a planned visit is straightforward to arrange around your day. That makes it the perfect place to get the job most people put off: a proper second key, cut to code and programmed, before the only one goes missing.
It is a fraction of the cost of an emergency all keys lost call-out, and it takes under an hour on your own drive. If you bought your car used and it came with one key, this is the page that should convince you.

Two miles, door to door
Bramley is the shortest run we make. Out of the yard, along Stanningley Road or Broad Lane depending on where you are, and we are in LS13 almost immediately. The estates off Swinnow Road, the streets around Bramley Town Street and the roads down towards Bramley Falls are all within a mile or so of each other.
Being this close changes what we can offer. We can fit a small job into a gap between bookings, which means planned work like a spare key does not have to wait for a quiet day, and an emergency rarely involves a long wait staring at a locked car. It also means that if something is not right afterwards, we are two miles away rather than across the city.
A typical call-out in Bramley
The most common Bramley job is not an emergency at all. It is somebody who bought a used car two years ago, got one key with it, and has been meaning to sort a second one ever since. They ring on a Saturday morning, we come out that afternoon, and an hour later the car has two working keys.
The second most common is the school run lockout: keys left in the ignition with the engine off, doors closed, child already inside the house. We are there quickly, the car is open without a scratch, and the day carries on. Both jobs happen on the driveway, and neither one needs the car to move an inch.

How fast can you get to Bramley?
It is the closest area to our Stanningley base, two miles away. Ring us and we will give you a live ETA.
Do you cover Swinnow, Rodley and Fall Wood too?
Yes, all the surrounding LS13 area, and there is no extra charge for it.
Can you make a key at my house?
Yes. Most Bramley jobs happen on a driveway or outside the front door.
Is a spare key worth it?
Yes. A planned spare costs a fraction of an emergency key made at two in the morning when the only one is lost.
Do you work on vans?
Yes, including Transit, Sprinter, Vivaro and Transporter.
What if my car is on a tight terraced street?
Not a problem. We work at the kerbside, so the car never has to be moved.
Do you charge extra at night?
Out of hours work costs a little more, and you always get the full price on the phone first.
Do you cover Rodley and the canal side?
Yes, and it is a short run for us. Tell us where you have parked along the towpath car parks and we will find you.
Can you come out first thing in the morning?
Yes. Early starts are easy from here because we are only a couple of miles away.
