Not a Franchise.
Not a Call Centre.
Just Kam.
I started Rapid Lock Services after watching drivers get let down repeatedly — overcharged by main dealers, turned away by general locksmiths who lacked the equipment, or given a same-day job that ended with “you’ll need to go to a dealer for the rest.”
I specialise in vehicles exclusively. No household locks, no safes, no general work. That focus means every pound I invest goes into better diagnostic machines, and every hour goes into staying current with the security systems fitted to modern cars and vans.
The result: I handle all-keys-lost jobs on complex keyless systems, ECU and immobiliser faults and key programming across makes that others can’t touch — and I do it at your door, not in a workshop.

How Rapid Lock Services Grew
Five milestones that shaped the business — from day one in Falkirk to 50+ towns.
Rapid Lock Services Founded
Launched as a vehicles-only mobile locksmith service from Falkirk. Single focus: attend every job personally and never leave until the work is done.
Specialist Vehicle Security Training
Completed advanced training in OBD key coding, transponder systems, immobiliser bypass and vehicle-specific IMMO protocols across European and Asian platforms.
7-Machine Diagnostics Suite Built
Invested in Autel IM608, ACDP, Smart Pro, VVDI2, Zedfull Plus, KTP and Halkyard/Truecode — the toolkit required to handle virtually every make and model on UK roads.
Coverage Expanded to 50+ Towns
Grew to cover Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling, West Lothian, Fife, Clackmannanshire, Perth & Kinross and every major town between.
5.0 Rating Across 36 Google Reviews
Maintained a perfect five-star rating from real customers across all job types — lost keys, lockouts, programming, fob repairs and commercial vehicles.
The Equipment That Makes the Difference
Most locksmiths carry one or two machines. I carry seven. Each tool is matched to a specific platform or job type — which is how I handle jobs others decline.
Generates new keys from IMMO data or VIN for Ford, Vauxhall, Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Fiat, Renault, Dacia and more. The core machine for all-keys-lost jobs.
Key programming and cloning for VW, Audi, SEAT, Skŏda, Porsche and BMW. Full OBD and adapter-based coverage.
The primary tool for all Ford models, Land Rover, Range Rover and Jaguar — including push-start and proximity key programming.
Handles BMW BDC systems, Mini, Rolls-Royce, Volvo and Jaguar/Land Rover advanced coding. Essential for modern BMW all-keys-lost.
Covers Renault, Dacia, Nissan and Mercedes-Benz up to 2014 (vans 2018). Handles remote programming and immobiliser faults.
Specialist tool for Hyundai, Kia, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Subaru — key cutting and transponder programming.
Dedicated Vauxhall specialist for Astra, Corsa, Insignia, Meriva and Mokka — IMMO bypass and key learning where other machines fall short.
