How Our Auto Locksmith Service Works
We keep the process simple and stress-free:
-
Quick assessment
You tell us your vehicle make, model, year, and what’s gone wrong. We confirm availability and give you a clear, no-obligation quote before we set off. -
Non-destructive vehicle entry wherever possible
Our technicians use specialist tools to open cars without damage wherever possible. We only use drilling or destructive methods in rare cases (for example, severely damaged locks) and only with your agreement after we explain the risks and alternatives. -
On-site key cutting and programming
- Key cutting: From standard to laser-cut/high-security blades, we cut keys on site.
- Programming: Using dealer-level equipment, we handle OBD2 key programming for most vehicles. Where required (certain immobiliser systems and some models), we perform EEPROM-level work and ECU/immobiliser programming.
- Key types: Transponder keys, flip keys, remote keys, and smart/proximity keys for push-to-start systems.
- Full testing and handover
We test locking/unlocking, engine start, and immobiliser sync, making sure everything works before we leave. We’ll also offer advice to prevent future lockouts and can supply a spare if you’d like one while we’re there.

Security-Focused Solutions You Can Trust
Modern vehicles rely on immobiliser technology to protect against theft. That’s why we:
- Verify vehicle ownership and identity before work begins
- Use secure processes to add and remove keys from your vehicle’s immobiliser
- Offer to deauthorise lost or stolen keys where supported by your vehicle
- Provide advice on protective measures, such as keeping a spare, checking fob battery health, and updating worn locks
We also repair worn locks, replace broken key blades, sort out flip-key hinges, and restore central locking functionality. If your car won’t detect the key or shows a key symbol on the dash, we diagnose the cause—whether it’s a transponder issue, aerial/antenna fault, or ECU pairing problem—and resolve it on site where possible.

Pricing Without Surprises
No fixed price list, because every job is different. Costs vary based on:
- Vehicle make, model, and year (later models often use higher-security keys)
- Key type (basic transponder, remote fob, or smart/proximity)
- What’s needed (unlock only, spare key, complete replacement when all keys are lost)
- Timing and location (standard bookings vs urgent call-outs)
What we can promise is clear, upfront quotes and professional advice. As a mobile auto locksmith, we’re typically faster and more convenient than a main dealer—especially for lost keys—because we come to you, cut and program on site, and can often deauthorise missing keys. If you’re weighing dealer vs locksmith key replacement, we’re happy to explain your options and timeframes.

FAQs
Can a locksmith make a car key without the original?
Yes. In most cases we can create a new key without the original by using your vehicle’s VIN and immobiliser data. We read the necessary information via OBD2, and for certain models we may use EEPROM techniques. We’ll then cut the blade and program the transponder or smart key so the car recognises it.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible, employing specialist tools and techniques designed for modern vehicles. In rare cases—such as severely damaged locks—minor drilling may be required; we will explain the situation, agree the approach with you first, and tidy or replace components as needed.
How long does it take to get a new car key?
It varies by vehicle and key type. Standard transponder keys can often be supplied and programmed during a single visit, while some smart/proximity systems take longer due to security procedures. We’ll give you an estimated timescale once we know your make, model, and the problem.
Do you operate evenings and weekends?
Yes, we offer emergency support and flexible booking options including evenings and weekends. We prioritise efficient dispatch across Brunswick Park and the wider N postcode area.
My car won’t start and a key symbol is flashing—what should I do?
That usually indicates an immobiliser or key recognition issue. Avoid repeated attempts, as some systems lock down after multiple failures. Call us with your vehicle details; we can test the key, check the aerial/receiver, and reprogram or replace components as needed.
What should I do if my key snaps in the ignition?
Don’t try to force it out. We perform broken key extraction using the correct tools, reducing the risk of further damage. If the ignition barrel is worn, we can repair or replace it and cut/program a new key on site.
