Brighton and Hove’s favourite Auto locksmith

Lost Keys or spare key needed in Brighton?

My family and I love the vibrant energy of Brighton. It truly earns its reputation as "London by the Sea," but with better views and fresh sea air! Whether it’s wandering through the endless maze of independent shops in The Lanes, grabbing some donuts on the Palace Pier (while trying to dodge the aggressive seagulls!), or marvelling at the Royal Pavilion, there is never a dull moment here.

Unlike the quieter spots along the coast, Brighton is buzzing with life, art, and culture. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a day out with the family or a night out on the town.

However, amidst the hustle and bustle of a busy day shopping or a trip up the i360, it is all too easy to lose your car keys—which super sucks! Daniel at Auto Key Hero will come out to you—whether you are parked in a multi-story or on the seafront—and safely open your car. I can make a new key on-site, making a stressful situation much more tolerable.

Locked your keys in your car? I can help, no problem.

Please don’t get general recovery services out first. They often use air bags to wedge the door open and bend your car door frame to fish the keys out. This can permanently damage your door, affect the seal (causing wind noise or leaks), and even shatter your window.

Auto Key Hero takes a different approach. I can safely pick your lock using professional, non-destructive methods, decode your lock on-site, and cut a new key for you right there. All other options potentially devalue your car or cause damage.

We cover the Brighton, Hove, Saltdean, Peacehaven, Lewes, Worthing and east Sussex areas.

Auto Key Hero offers a specialist service that is faster and safer than recovery trucks, often at the same or lower cost.
