Car services & honest pricing

Three most-called jobs.

Most calls fall into one of three categories. We quote the fixed price on the phone before we get in the van. No call-out charge.

01

Car lockout — damage-free entry

Locked the keys in the boot, the door, or somewhere you can see them through the glass. We use specialist LISHI tools and lock pick sets — the same kit a main dealer uses — to open the door without a single scratch on your paint, frame or lock.

Why us

Real locksmiths. Not a call centre.

Most "car locksmith near me" numbers Google shows you don't ring a locksmith's phone. They ring a call centre. The call centre passes your job to whoever's available and willing to pay them a cut. You don't know who's coming, they don't know your car, and prices balloon on the kerb.

Fast Response Locksmiths is different. When you call 01924 201 261 you reach the locksmith. We tell you the exact price for your make, model and year before we set off. Seven years specialising — NVQ Level 2, NNAL approved, CRB-checked. Best Locksmith in Wakefield 2024 by Quality Business Awards.

Based at 32 Major Street, Wakefield WF2 7SB. 30-minute target across WF postcodes; one-hour target across HD and S70–S75.

Three stories, told by name.

Very helpful advice, honest and really efficient. Locked my keys in the boot and they were with me in about 20 minutes. Had me back in without a scratch.

Called at 3am after my key snapped in the ignition. They actually answered, came out, and sorted it fast. Absolute lifesaver when you're stranded.

Diagnosed the problem and gave me a price over the phone. Arrived within 30 minutes. Lost my only key and they cut and programmed a new one on the spot. Saved me a fortune.

Common questions

Most-asked, answered straight.

How much does it cost to replace a lost car key?
It depends on the make, model and year. Most modern cars are significantly less than a main dealer. Ring us with the details and we'll give you a fixed price on the phone before we set off — that's the price you pay.
Can you open my car without damaging it?
Yes. We use LISHI tools and specialist lock-pick sets — the same non-destructive equipment manufacturers and main dealers use. If we can't open it without damage we don't charge.
How long will you take to get to me?
Our target is 30 minutes inside the Wakefield postcode area (WF1–WF17) and up to one hour for the surrounding West and South Yorkshire towns.
Do you work on vans, BMWs, Audis, Fords, all makes?
Yes. We carry the equipment and blanks for the vast majority of cars, vans and light commercial vehicles in the UK. Ring with the make, model and year and we'll confirm before we set off.
Is there a call-out charge?
No. We quote a fixed price for the whole job before we leave the workshop. No surprise add-ons.
