Lost the key for your locking wheel nut, or found one seized solid or rounded off? On its own that little nut can bring a tyre change to a dead stop, because the wheel simply will not come off without it. It catches people out at the worst times, a flat on the drive with no key in the glovebox, a nut spun round by a previous garage, or one corroded so tight the key just slips. We deal with exactly this across Southgate, coming to the car wherever it is parked, from a bay near Southgate Circus to a driveway in Grange Park.

We carry specialist removal tools designed to grip and back out a stubborn, rounded or keyless locking nut without chewing up the alloy around it, then we fit a standard replacement nut so you are not left with the same problem next time. Once the nut is off, we get on with the actual job, whether that is a puncture repair or a full replacement, and you drive away sorted. It is a genuinely different service from a straightforward tyre change, and one a lot of mobile fitters cannot handle, but it is routine for us. So if a missing key or a wrecked nut is all that stands between you and a working wheel, that is not a reason to call out recovery; it is a call to us. We cover N14 around the clock for exactly these hold-ups.
A seized or keyless locking wheel nut can strand you on your own drive in Southgate even when a spare or a fitter is right there, since the wheel will not come off without it. We bring specialist extraction tools to streets from Southgate Circus to Oakwood, remove the nut without harming the alloy and fit a fresh one, then change the tyre in the same visit.
The locking wheel nut removal situations Southgate drivers call us out to most:
A driver in Grange Park had a flat but no locking nut key in the car. We removed the nut with our own tools and changed the tyre on the spot.
A locking nut corroded tight on a car on Chase Road would not budge. We backed it out without damaging the alloy and fitted a replacement nut.
A previous garage had rounded off a locking nut on a car in Oakwood. We gripped and removed it, then got the tyre changed as normal.
We also attend roadside locking wheel nut removal on the main routes through Southgate, including Chase Road, Bramley Road, Cockfosters Road (A111) and more, day and night.
Yes. We carry tools that back a locking nut out without the key, then fit a replacement, so a flat in Grange Park is still sorted in one visit.
It should not. The tools grip the nut itself and shield the rim, so the alloy stays intact on Chase Road while the stubborn nut is worked loose.
Usually yes. Rounded and spun nuts are a common call across N14, and our extraction tools grip where a key no longer can, so the wheel comes free in Oakwood.
We do. After removing the seized nut we fit a standard replacement across N14, so you are not left with the same problem next time a wheel has to come off.
Yes. We get the locking nut off first, then carry straight on with the repair or replacement, so the whole job is done in one call near Southgate Circus.

So glad I called when I got a puncture. They kept me posted, arrived in good time and the price was very reasonable. I felt safe and looked after by their excellent service.
Within an hour Abdul was at my house and it took him 15 minutes to change two tyres. Rapid, polite and with a huge smile. An absolute asset to the company.
Rohan came so quickly, within the hour, and was decent and professional changing 2 tyres, giving a mum of 5 real peace of mind at a reasonable price. Excellent communication too.
