  • Can you replace a key if I've lost all my keys?
    Yes, we can help you replace a key even if you have lost all your keys. We are experienced in dealing with such situations. We have the necessary tools and expertise to provide key replacement services for a wide range of vehicle makes and models. Whether you have misplaced your keys or they have been stolen, we can assist you in getting a new key for your car. Our process involves cutting a new key and programming it to work with your vehicle's immobiliser system. To get started just contact us by phone or email and we'll guide you through the key replacement process and help you regain access to your vehicle.
  • Do you have a call out charge?
    No, we charge for each service which differs between vehicle make and model. You do not need to make an appointment either, please call us and we'd be happy to let you know your options and how fast we can support you.

The best thing to do is call us on 07909 026891 and we'll give you an instant quote for your specific needs. Alternatively, use our contact form to request a quote and we'll respond as soon as we can.
  • Can you stop lost keys from working with my car?
    Yes, we can help prevent lost keys from working with your car through a process called key deprogramming. When you inform us that your keys are lost or stolen, we can reprogram your vehicle's immobiliser system to disable any previously programmed keys. By doing this, the lost keys will no longer have the ability to start or operate your car. Additionally, we can provide you with a new set of keys and program them to work exclusively with your vehicle. This ensures that only the new keys will have the authorisation to start and operate your car or van, providing you with peace of mind and improved security. If you have lost your keys, please reach out to us promptly, and we'll assist you in safeguarding your car by stopping the lost keys from working with it.
  • Do I need to go to a dealership to get a new key?
    No, you do not need to go to a dealership to get a new key for your vehicle. As a professional auto locksmith service, we offer key replacement services that are often more convenient and cost-effective than dealership options. We have the expertise to cut and program keys for various vehicle makes and models. We use specialised equipment and techniques to provide you with a new key that works seamlessly with your car's ignition and locks. In fact, our services are often more affordable compared to dealership prices, saving you both time and money. Whether you have lost your key, need a spare or need to regain entry to your car, we can assist you.
