Matt is with you within the hour in Leicester, and the same day across Leicestershire. Thurnby Lodge and Netherhall are two housing estates inside the city of Leicester, primarily within LE5. Thurncourt Road is in Thurnby Lodge, and New Romney Crescent and Armadale Drive are in Netherhall.
Most vehicles here stand on a driveway or on the road outside a house, so the street name and the house number place the car. Thurnby Lodge is a different place from Thurnby village, and saying which one saves a wrong turn. A quote is agreed before work begins.
Call Details for Thurnby Lodge and Netherhall Drivers
Five details place a vehicle in Thurnby Lodge or Netherhall and let Matt agree the work before he sets off.
- The estate. Say Thurnby Lodge or Netherhall. Thurncourt Road is in Thurnby Lodge, and New Romney Crescent and Armadale Drive are in Netherhall.
- The street and the house number. Estate streets are residential, so the house number is the landmark. On Uppingham Road or Scraptoft Lane, give the nearest side road.
- Thurnby Lodge or Thurnby village. Thurnby Lodge is inside the city, in LE5. Thurnby village is a separate place in the Harborough district, in LE7. Say which one.
- Where the vehicle stands. Say driveway, road outside the house, shop parking or main road.
- The vehicle and the fault. Give the registration, the make, the model and the year, then say whether the key is lost, locked inside, broken or no longer starts the car.
Call 0116 442 2084 with the estate, the street and the registration. A quote is agreed before work begins.

Main Roads Into Thurnby Lodge and Netherhall
Uppingham Road and Scraptoft Lane are the two main roads of the area. Uppingham Road is the A47, and it runs on through Thurnby village. Scraptoft Lane joins the A563 outer ring road and leads out to Scraptoft village.
Scraptoft Lane meets Colchester Road and Hungarton Boulevard at one junction. Colchester Road also joins Uppingham Road, so it links the two main roads.
Thurncourt Road carries the Post Office and the community centre of Thurnby Lodge. In Netherhall, New Romney Crescent meets Scraptoft Lane and Hamilton Lane. A vehicle on one of these roads is placed by the nearest side road or building.
City Boundary With Scraptoft and Thurnby Village
Thurnby Lodge sits against the city boundary, where its ward touches the parish of Scraptoft and the parish of Thurnby and Bushby. Scraptoft village lies immediately east of the city, in the Harborough district and the LE7 postcode district. Hamilton Lane leads from New Romney Crescent in Netherhall to Main Street in Scraptoft.
Thurnby and Bushby is a separate parish in the Harborough district, adjacent to the city boundary, with the A47 running east to west through the village. Station Lane links Scraptoft to the A47.
Inta-Lock serves Leicester and Leicestershire, so a vehicle on either side of the boundary is covered. The village name and the LE7 postcode tell Matt the car is beyond Thurnby Lodge.

Five situations sit beside a call out in Thurnby Lodge or Netherhall, and each one changes what Matt hears on the call.
Thurnby Lodge Differs From Thurnby Village
Thurnby Lodge is an estate inside the city of Leicester, in LE5. Its ward touches the parish of Thurnby and Bushby, yet the estate is not part of that parish. Thurnby village belongs to the parish of Thurnby and Bushby in the Harborough district, in LE7.
The two names sound alike on a phone line. The postcode settles it, so give the postcode with the place name.
Driveway Job Compared With a Main Road Job
Comparison. A car on a driveway in Netherhall and a car stopped on Uppingham Road receive the same key work from the same locksmith.
Differences. A driveway is private ground with the house and the documents beside the car. Uppingham Road is the A47, a through route, where the vehicle is placed by the nearest side road and the side of the road.
Similarities. In both places supported key and entry work is carried out where the vehicle stands, identity and authority are checked first and a quote is agreed before work begins.
Effects. A house number places the driveway job in one sentence. A main road job takes two details, the side road and the direction of travel.
Spare Keys Made on the Driveway at Home
A lost key is the urgent state and a spare key is the opposite, calm state. With the car at home in Thurnby Lodge or Netherhall and one key still working, spare car keys are cut and programmed from the working key, and the documents are in the house.
Keys Locked Inside at Thurnby Lodge Post Office
A key shut inside the car is still the key of the car, so opening the door ends the job. A driver locked out of a car at the Post Office on Thurncourt Road gives the side of the building the car faces. No key is cut and nothing is removed from the immobiliser memory.
Vans Kept Overnight on Estate Streets
A works van kept at a home address in LE5 is a van job, with load area locks as well as cab doors. Replacement van keys are made at the van on supported models. Say whether the van belongs to the driver or to an employer, as that shapes the identity and authority check.
