Mobile Car Locksmith in Paignton and Torbay
A mobile car locksmith in Paignton and Torbay comes to the car with the cutter, key blanks and coding tools, so a lockout, a lost key or a faulty remote is sorted on the spot rather than at a dealer in Torquay or Exeter. Google Maps gives 37.0 miles and 40 minutes from the DB Car Keys base in Honiton to Paignton by the A30 and the A380. Most TQ3 and TQ4 calls can be reached in 40 to 55 minutes, and the arrival time is confirmed on the phone.
Paignton lies on Tor Bay between Torquay to the north and Brixham to the south, with the A3022 ring road behind the town and the A385 heading west to Totnes. Lockouts come from the seafront car parks on Torbay Road, the town centre car parks around Victoria Square, Goodrington South and the holiday parks, while spare keys and remotes are done on drives in Preston, Roselands and Collaton St Mary and on vans at the White Rock trade estate.
If the only key goes missing in Paignton, mobile car key replacement is carried out at the car, and the missing key is erased from the car memory so it can no longer start it. Dean carries out lost car key cutting and programming at the car anywhere in Paignton.
The Paignton price is agreed before Dean sets off from Honiton, with no call out fee and nothing added for the distance. Blanks, the cutter and the coding kit are in the van, so the job is finished on the one visit.
Dean checks ownership before any key is cut, so these five things save time on a Paignton callout.
Paignton Car Key Job From First Call
A Paignton car key job from first call to driving off has four steps, and each is done where the car is parked.
Phone With the Car Park and Car
Give Dean the car park, street or holiday park in Paignton, the make, model and year, and the fault. The price and the arrival time are agreed there and then.
Down the A380 to Torbay
The van comes from Honiton by the A30 and the A380 to the seafront, the street or the pitch, and Dean can be there in 40 to 55 minutes.
Ownership Shown, Then the Fix
Once the logbook and photo ID match, Dean opens the car, cuts and codes the key or clears the immobiliser fault right there.
Back on the Road Inside the Hour
Most Paignton jobs can be done 30 to 60 minutes after the van arrives, at the price agreed on the call.

Car Locksmith in Paignton or a Dealer
A car locksmith in Paignton or a dealer, or a breakdown patrol, gives three different answers on where the key is made, how long the car waits and what it all costs.
| What the driver needs | DB Car Keys | Main dealer | Breakdown cover |
|---|---|---|---|
| Work done at the car in Paignton | Every job | Car taken to the workshop | Usually |
| Price fixed before any work | Set over the phone | Quoted after inspection | Set by the policy |
| Help at night and on bank holidays | Yes, every day | Shop hours | If the cover includes it |
| No key left at all | 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 |
| Car opened without damage | On every lockout | Not a dealer service | Varies by patrol |
| Remote coded in the car park | Yes, from the van | In the workshop | Seldom |
