How it works

What to expect when you call

1

Tell us the car

Make, model and year, and whether you have any working key. That tells us the key type, chip and gear needed before we roll.

2

We come to the vehicle

Our automotive van carries key blanks, cutting gear and programming tools, so we work wherever your car is — home, work or stranded in a car park.

3

Cut and program on-site

We cut the key to your car's code and program the transponder or smart key to the immobiliser, then test it starts and locks reliably.

4

Drive away

In the great majority of cases you leave with a fully working key the same visit — no tow, no dealership wait. Free quote before we start.

Good to know

Automotive & Car Keys FAQs

Can you make a car key without the original?

In most cases, yes. We can generate a new key from your vehicle's code and program it to the immobiliser even when every key is lost. Tell us the make, model and year and we'll confirm before we come out.

Do you program the chip / transponder as well as cut the key?

Yes — cutting is only half the job on a modern car. We program the transponder or smart key to your immobiliser on-site so it actually starts the car, not just turns in the lock.

My car uses a push-button smart key — can you replace that?

For most makes, yes. Proximity 'smart' keys and push-button start systems are part of what we do; we carry the blanks and programming gear for a wide range of vehicles. We'll confirm your specific model when you call.

Is a mobile locksmith cheaper than the dealership?

Very often, yes — and you skip the tow and the multi-day wait. We give you a free quote up front so you can compare before committing. Zero pricing games; you'll know the number before we start.

Automotive & Car Keys — what customers say

Lost the only key to my car in the shopping centre car park. They came out, cut and programmed a new one on the spot and I drove home the same afternoon. Saved me a tow to the dealer.
Priya S. Chermside
Needed a spare smart key for the second driver. Cheaper than the dealership and done in the driveway while I had a coffee. Couldn't fault it.
Rebecca J. Ascot
Locked my keys in the boot at Garden City with the kids in tow. They came to the car park, got me in without a scratch and cut a spare on the spot. Saved me a very expensive tow to the dealer.
