Locked out of your car in Mansfield, or lost the only key you had? Autelix is a mobile auto locksmith working across Mansfield and the surrounding villages. We come to the vehicle and work at the kerbside or on your driveway.

We replace lost car keys, program remotes and smart keys, and open locked vehicles without damage wherever the lock allows. Autelix is SERMI approved, reference GB/RMISC/184760AT2757. That is the regulated route to manufacturer vehicle security data, and since April 2026 Ford, Nissan, Toyota, Jaguar and Land Rover have all routed security access through it.

Auto Locksmith Services in Mansfield

Most of what we get called out to in Mansfield falls into three groups: a key that has been lost, a key that has stopped working, and a car locked with the keys inside.

We cover:

  • Car key replacement, including all-keys-lost

  • Spare keys cut and programmed

  • Remote and smart key programming

  • Opening locked vehicles without damage

  • Key fob repairs

  • Ignition and door lock faults

Everything happens at the vehicle. There is no wait for recovery and nothing needs to go to a dealership.

Drivers further south on the A611 can use our auto locksmith in Hucknall page for the NG15 area. For the full detail on what a replacement involves, see car key replacement.

Car Key Replacement in Mansfield

A modern car key is not just a cut blade. It carries a transponder that talks to the immobiliser, and on almost anything built since the late 1990s the engine will not start without it.

If you have lost every key, we gain entry, read the vehicle, cut a new blade and program it to the immobiliser at the roadside.

Spare Keys

A spare costs a fraction of an all-keys-lost job. If you are down to one key, that is the moment to get a second cut rather than after the first one goes missing. See spare car keys.

Every key is tested before we leave: lock, unlock, boot release and start.

Where keys have been lost or stolen we can also delete them from the immobiliser, so a key still out there will no longer start the car.

Locked Out of Your Car in Mansfield

Keys locked in the car, or a key snapped off in the door? We open vehicles without damage wherever the lock allows, picking and decoding rather than forcing anything.

Damage-free entry is the default, not an upsell. If a vehicle genuinely cannot be opened that way we will tell you before we start and explain what the alternative involves and what it costs.

We cover Mansfield, Mansfield Woodhouse, Sutton-in-Ashfield, Rainworth and the villages around them. If the keys are locked inside, say so when you call and we will tell you roughly how long we will be.

Car Key Programming in Mansfield

When a remote stops working it is not always the key. A flat coin cell, a worn button contact, water damage and a genuine programming fault all look identical from the driver's seat.

So we check before we replace. If the fob only needs a battery or a new case, that is all it gets.

Where programming is genuinely needed, we write the key to the vehicle immobiliser using diagnostic equipment. That covers added spares, replacement remotes, and proximity smart keys on cars that never had a blade in the first place.

After a Break-In or Stolen Keys

If keys have been stolen, the lock is not really the problem. The problem is that somebody has a working key to your car.

We delete lost and stolen keys from the immobiliser so they will no longer start the vehicle, then cut and program you a fresh set.

We also repair door locks and ignition barrels damaged in an attempted theft.

If you run vans for work, we can supply spare sets and keep a record of what each vehicle takes, so a lost key is a phone call rather than a day off the road.

What It Costs

We do not charge a call-out fee. You pay for the job, not for us turning up.

Beyond that, the price depends on the vehicle and the work. Cutting and programming an extra spare for a common hatchback sits at the low end. An all-keys-lost job on a car that needs security data from the manufacturer takes longer, needs more equipment, and costs more.

Tell us the make, model and year, or just the registration, and we can usually give you a price on the phone. Whatever we quote is agreed before any work starts.
