Exmouth Locksmith Compared With a Dealer or Patrol
An Exmouth locksmith compared with a dealer or a breakdown patrol differs in where the key is made, how long the car is off the road and what the job costs.
| What the driver needs | DB Car Keys | Main dealer | Breakdown cover |
|---|---|---|---|
| Work done where the car is in Exmouth | Every job | Car taken to the workshop | Usually |
| Price known before anything starts | Agreed on the call | Quoted after inspection | Set by the policy |
| Help at night and on bank holidays | Yes, every day | Shop hours | If the cover includes it |
| Every key gone | New key made at the car | Yes, at dealer prices | Rarely included |
| Spare remote for a Ford or Vauxhall | £80 to £180 | £150 to £350 | Not offered |
| Door opened with no damage | On every lockout | Not a dealer service | Varies by patrol |
| Remote coded on the spot | Yes, from the van | In the workshop | Seldom |
