Car Key Replacement in North London and N14
Lost your only key, or need a spare? We cut and code new keys for most vehicles, including laser-cut and high-security types. Choose from basic transponder keys, remote fobs, or smart/proximity keys. Learn more about our Car Key Replacement. -
Car Key Programming and Immobiliser Diagnostics
Keys contain chips that “talk” to your vehicle’s immobiliser. If that handshake fails, your car won’t start. We provide transponder and smart key programming using dealer-level tools and secure methods such as OBD2 and EEPROM where required. See our specialist Car Key Programming service. -
Vehicle Unlocking (Non-Destructive Entry)
Locked out of your car? We use professional techniques to open vehicles without damage wherever possible. On the rare occasions entry may risk minor damage (e.g., certain late-model deadlocks), we’ll explain options clearly before starting. Read about our Vehicle Unlocking. -
Car Key Cutting & Duplication
Need a spare key for family or business drivers? We cut and duplicate keys on-site, test functionality, and provide straightforward guidance on keeping both keys synchronised. -
Van & Commercial Auto Locksmith
We support vans and commercial vehicles used across Osidge and Southgate. From Transit and Vivaro to Transporter and Sprinter, we cut and program fleet keys and can help keep your business moving with minimal downtime.
How We Work: Safe, Professional, Mobile
We know you want a solution that’s quick, careful and well-explained. Here’s our simple process:
-
Assessment and ID
We confirm vehicle details, verify ownership, and assess the lock, key and immobiliser issue. You’ll get clear guidance on the best options before any work begins. -
Non-Destructive Entry Wherever Possible
For lockouts, we use specialist tools and techniques (including Lishi picks and wedge/airbag sets) aimed at opening your vehicle without damage. We’ll only consider invasive methods if absolutely necessary and always with your informed consent. -
Cutting and Programming
Using dealer-level equipment, we cut keys precisely and program transponder chips, smart keys and remotes. Where appropriate, we use OBD2 key programming or, for certain models and immobiliser systems, EEPROM and ECU/immobiliser programming. This ensures the new key is recognised, starts the car and operates central locking properly. -
Testing and Handover
We test operation in the locks and ignition, check remote functions, and verify the car starts reliably. We’ll also advise on battery care for remotes, how to keep a spare safe, and what to do if you suspect theft. -
Warranty and Aftercare
Our keys and workmanship come with a clear guarantee. If you have any issues after the job, just get in touch and we’ll make it right.
