Don't miss Simply Lock-X Autumn!
After a great success back the Spring, Hickleys are once again ringing in the savings with their online only trade show, Simply Lock-X. From now until Friday 13th November (Lucky for some!) Hickleys have a full range of 32 money saving deals that Auto Locksmiths and workshops that offer key programming services can take advantage of.
Headline deals include cheap unlimited use plans for the market leading Smart Pro (UTP) and ZedFULL Plus (LIFS) remote programming units. Specific deals include a tempting deal for ZedFULL Plus owners who currently use credits for programming jobs. They can try out ZedFULL’s unlimited use plan, known as LIFS, over 3 months for just £200 saving a huge £300 over the normal price.
There are also great deals on programmer trade ins, outright purchases of programmers, accessories such as cables, start up packages, keys & remotes, battery support units and many more.
Hickleys and IEA are also preparing for the imminent release of a new capability on the ZedFULL Plus that will enable Locksmiths to program remotes for common Ford vehicles that are 2021 and newer and use the NU5T and MU5T gateway modules. These vehicles have until now needed to be sent to main dealers for costly replacement and additional remotes, but soon owners of ZedFULL plus units will be able to provide this service thanks to an incoming software update. Even better, the cable required for this job is part of the promotional pricing during Simply Lock-X. The cable required is the ZEDZFPH-RH850.
