We have run vans out of Crawley since 2014, covering Gatwick Airport and the surrounding RH6 postcodes. Average arrival here is 27 min average, and the price is fixed before we set off.
Gatwick is the job we do more than any other, and it is the one where ringing ahead genuinely saves you money. Someone lands at eleven at night, walks to the long stay, and the key is at home on a hook or at the bottom of a suitcase in the hold. Sorted at the car park, it is a straightforward key cut and programmed. Sorted by recovery truck, it is a far worse evening.
If you know before you land that the key is gone, call us from the plane door. We can often have the blank ready and a technician on the way so the work starts when you reach the car rather than an hour later.
We work in the North and South Terminal car parks, the long stay and the Summer Special, and the surrounding hotels. Security in the airport car parks is used to us; we carry ID and deal with them directly so nobody gets turned away at midnight.
A small team covers this patch. You get one of them by name in your ETA text — with a photo, so you know who is walking up to your car at midnight.
Build note: replace with the real team, real photos and real certifications before launch. Named, verifiable technicians are the strongest trust signal on this page.
Gatwick Airport sits in our inner ring — 0–8 miles from the Crawley base — so the typical arrival is 27 min average. No mileage charge, day or night. You get a live ETA by text once a technician is assigned, and if we are running behind you hear it from us rather than having to chase.
RH6 in Gatwick Airport, West Sussex, plus the surrounding villages. If your postcode sits just outside, ring anyway — we quote any mileage honestly before setting off rather than adding it to the bill afterwards.
Yes. The van carries key blanks, cutting equipment and the diagnostic kit to pair a new key to your immobiliser, so the work happens wherever the car is standing in Gatwick Airport. You will need photo ID and the V5C — we verify ownership on every job without exception.
No. The rate is the same at 3am on a Sunday as at 3pm on a Tuesday, bank holidays included, and there is no call-out fee anywhere in this coverage ring.
We cover Crawley, Horley, Copthorne and the roads between them on the same terms, so being a few miles out rarely changes the price. Tell the dispatcher the nearest road or postcode and you will get a straight answer about timing before you commit.
A dispatcher picks up in under 20 seconds, day or night.
