Rapid Vehicle Security is run by Peter Wilcox CAE AMIMI: 39 years in engineering maintenance, the last six of them in automotive work.

Pete trained through a dual EITB engineering apprenticeship, holds City & Guilds qualifications in engineering maintenance and in the inspection and testing of electrical equipment, and is IMI-accredited as a master auto locksmith, in security systems and CAN-bus immobiliser fitting, and in ECU programming.

The aim is simple: high-end vehicle security and auto locksmith work with a first-class customer experience, from a fully equipped van across the West Midlands. We believe in doing it right, and doing it once.
