Auto Locksmith Alrewas
Lost keys, lockouts, ignition faults and spare keys across Alrewas — from the village and the National Memorial Arboretum to Fradley, Wychnor and Kings Bromley. Ben attends on-site, no call-out fee.
Alrewas — Canal Village and the National Memorial Arboretum
Alrewas sits where the Trent and Mersey Canal meets the River Trent, north-east of Lichfield. It is a conservation village of timber-framed and brick cottages, and the canal running through it still brings steady boat and towpath traffic through the warmer months.
Its most significant neighbour is the National Memorial Arboretum, the UK’s year-round centre of Remembrance, which sits just outside the village and draws very substantial visitor numbers from across the country. A large share of the vehicles parked there on any given day have travelled a long way to be there.
That matters for this kind of work. Somebody who has driven two hours to visit the Arboretum and then locked their keys in the car has a genuine problem, and it is exactly the situation a mobile locksmith is for. Every AutoVault service is available here — emergency vehicle unlocking, lost car keys, car key replacement and more.

Full details & FAQs →Key Fob Repairs in Alrewas
Remote locking stopped working but the key still starts the car? Often a flat battery or lost pairing rather than a full fob fault. Ben diagnoses the actual issue first, which usually means a cheaper fix.
Full details & FAQs →Broken Key Extraction in Alrewas
A snapped key in a door lock or ignition barrel is extracted using specialist tools, without drilling out the lock where avoidable — a common fault on higher-mileage vehicles doing rural miles.
Full details & FAQs →Ignition Repair & Replacement in Alrewas
Stiff, seized or completely dead ignition — Ben diagnoses whether it is mechanical wear or an electrical fault before recommending a repair or replacement, keeping your existing key wherever the barrel allows.

Covering Alrewas Village and the Arboretum
The Arboretum is the defining feature of coverage in this area. Its car parks hold a high proportion of visitors from outside the region, often on a day trip with no local contacts and no spare key within reach. A lockout there is a different problem from a lockout on your own driveway.
The village itself has the usual mix of residential streets, canal-side parking and a conservation area with narrow access in places. Trade vehicles working the A38 and the surrounding villages add commercial callouts on top of that.
