Is your car key stuck in the ignition or refusing to turn? NJS Auto Locksmith provides fast and reliable ignition repair and ignition barrel replacements
Whether your ignition is worn, damaged, or completely jammed, we can diagnose the issue and carry out repairs on-site, getting you back on the road quickly without the need for a dealership.
Some car ignitions are prone to failing. Brands like, Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda, Seat, Ford and Nissan are known for their individual wearing points. We stock a variety of replacements to get you back on the road as soon as possible.
mobile service - we come to you
Audi, Skoda, Seat, Volkswagen share the same igntion parts. Ignition faults on these vehicles are a frequent problem and can prevent your vehicle from starting without warning. Issues such as a key that feels stiff, won’t turn, or a steering lock that has completely failed are very common.
Stiff Transit and Fiesta ignitions are regular work for us. The wafers inside the barrel wear away until the key grinds, sticks or stops turning completely. Caught early, the fix is straightforward, and our mobile team swaps worn barrels at your address, usually the same day you call.
If your Nissan will not give the key back, worn wafers or a damaged blade are the usual culprits, and snapping the key makes it worse. We release, extract and repair on site across the area, usually finishing the same day with the price fixed upfront.
Why Choose Us
Same-Day Replacement
We replace faulty ignition barrels quickly to minimise downtime.
No New Keys Supplied & Programmed
Very often new keys will not need to be programmed to the vehicle.
Fault Diagnosis
We identify the exact issue with your ignition before recommending any work.
Internal Repairs
Worn or damaged components inside the ignition barrel can often be repaired rather than replaced.
If your key is stuck, your ignition won’t turn, or your vehicle won’t start, don’t wait. NJS Auto Locksmith provides fast, professional ignition repair and replacement to get you moving again quickly.
EXCELLENT Based on 75 reviews Posted on Google Abi Walker- SpiersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Locked myself out of my car. Locksmith came out super quick, 45 minutes, and had the car open very quickly. Great communication, friendly service, very reasonable price to be back in my car so quick. Would absolutely recommend / use againPosted on Google Deborah AmottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nick was amazing regarding spare keys for our Micra and Astra. Both were replaced at very reasonable cost, and the bonus being Nick came out to us, which saved a half hour journey each way. When our main Astra key then started playing up, Nick tried to help via messages, but we weren't confident to try the changes ourselves. So Nick visited again and we did end up needing a brand new key as the original was badly damaged. Again, done at a very reasonable cost. Nick is helpful, friendly and so easy to deal with. We would highly recommend.Posted on Google Lynne DeaconTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mick was fabulous. From call to key took an hour. Highly recommendPosted on Google CarlosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. All positive and very happy all roundPosted on Google Organise SpaceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nick did a great job replacing the proximity assembly on my Nissan Micra – a job that several other mechanics refused to take on! He has a logical engineer's brain and approached the problem methodically, explaining the likely chances of success at every stage of what turned out to be a complicated repair. Highly recommended.Posted on Google Karen PestellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service and highly recommend Nick. Great communications, prompt, professional and knowledgeable.Posted on Google aid anTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had anti-theft hook locks and a protection plate fitted to my van by Nick. Really pleased with the work carried out — professional, tidy, and explained everything clearly. The locks feel solid and give great peace of mind knowing the van is much more secure now. Would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking to improve van security.Posted on Google Edwin ThriftTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After a house fire and losing all keys for the cars Nick come straight away and made two sets of keys!Posted on Google Dean BluntTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend NJS. Helped me with a vehicle lockout a few weeks ago. Turned up 20 minutes after calling and got me back into my van and now a few weeks later I called for a new key and he met me at my place of work the very next day and sorted me out with a brand new key and even repaired my existing one. Thank you so much.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
