About Ian Wilson

Professional Mobile Auto Locksmith Serving All of Leeds

Ian Wilson started 24hr Auto Locksmith Leeds after 10 years working in vehicle electronics, key programming, and automotive security systems. Growing up surrounded by mechanics, he developed a deep understanding of how cars work and the electronics behind modern vehicle security.

Before specialising in locksmithing, Ian spent years in mobile phone repair — building hands-on skills in circuit board diagnostics, soldering, and fault-finding that most auto locksmiths do not have. This means we handle complex immobiliser faults, EEPROM-level key programming, and circuit board repairs. Learn more: what to do if you lose your car keys.

Every engineer is DBS checked and individually insured with public liability insurance. No VAT — you pay 15–20% less than any national firm or main dealer.
