Auto Locksmith Middlemore
EX2 6 / EX2 7 · East Exeter, Exeter · Mobile service to your exact location
Middlemore is a quiet residential area on the eastern edge of Exeter, situated between the Burnthouse Lane corridor and the Sowton retail and business park zone. It occupies a transitional zone between the dense inner suburbs and the more open eastern fringes of the city, with a mix of 1960s and 1970s housing estates, newer residential development and light commercial premises. If you have a car key problem in Middlemore, I can be with you from Honiton in around 20 minutes via the A30.
Mobile Auto Locksmith Middlemore
I'm Dean — a specialist mobile auto locksmith based in Honiton, around 20 minutes from Middlemore via the A30 and the Burnthouse Lane approach. Middlemore is a primarily residential area and the most common callouts I receive here are domestic lockouts and lost key replacements. Whether you've lost your car keys, locked them inside your vehicle, or need a spare key cut and programmed, I carry AUTEL and Xhorse professional equipment and come directly to your address.
Middlemore borders Sowton to the east — the proximity to Sowton Retail Park and the M5 junction means some commercial vehicle callouts from the Middlemore trading premises are a regular part of my work in this postcode. The area is also accessible from the Heavitree Road via Burnthouse Lane, making it straightforward to reach from either direction.
The area's housing stock is predominantly post-war — a mix of council-built estates from the 1960s and private residential development from the 1970s and 1980s, with some more recent infill. Vehicles in Middlemore tend to be practical family cars and vans rather than premium models, and I carry blanks and programming capability for the most common makes seen in this postcode: Ford, Vauxhall, Peugeot, Citroën and Renault.
