When nobody else seemed willing to help (or quoting me a fortune) with a lost Mazda key. I called Blade Auto Keys. Garry was driving at the time and pulled over to take my call. His knowledge and professionalism was immediately apparent and he helped me resolve my situation quickly and cheaply. I couldn’t be more thankful and recommend him highly.

5 star service, 5 star price

After my recovery and my local mechanic couldn’t fix the issue I had with my steering lock malfunction, I thought the only option I would have was to take my car to the main dealers to fix, knowing this would be very expensive and then finding that they couldn’t fit me in for 3 weeks!
I stumbled across 247 auto locksmith/ mr ignition whilst doing a google search about the problem.
Gary was very quick to reply to me with a very reasonable quote and able to come out to me the very next day to fix the issue.
Couldn’t recommend this guy enough, absolute 5 start service through out.

Exceptional 5* service

I never write reviews, for anything, but felt compelled to on this occasion because I was so impressed with the quality of service I received, which was exceptional from start to finish. Great communication, very competitive prices and extremely professional service. Fast and efficient, I cant recommend 24/7 locks highly enough. Would definitely use them again.

Garry came out to unlock my car

Garry came out to unlock my car, the battery had run flat. He unseized the lock, cut a new stronger emergency key and, because I wasn’t there hooked up my battery charger to the car.
I would highly recommend his services
