When You Need A Land Rover Locksmith Or Key Replacement
Land Rovers and Range Rovers use advanced immobiliser systems and smart keys. When something goes wrong, it’s inconvenient—and can be stressful. Common reasons Land Rover owners call us include:
- Lost or stolen keys and no spare
- Locked keys in the car or boot
- “Key Not Detected” on the dash
- Faulty or water-damaged smart key/fob
- Central locking not responding
- Key blade snapped or worn
- Key stuck in the ignition or barrel won’t turn
- Steering lock or column lock faults on certain models
- Battery failure causing immobiliser sync issues
- Door or tailgate lock malfunctions
If any of the above sounds familiar, we can help. We’ll explain your options in plain English and provide a free, no-obligation quote before any work begins.

How Our Land Rover Key Replacement And Programming Works
We use dealer-level diagnostics, OBD2 programming, and, where required, EEPROM bench solutions specifically suited to Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) platforms. Our process protects your vehicle’s electronics and your security.
-
Quick Call And Identification
We’ll confirm your location in North London, your Land Rover model/year, and the problem you’re facing. We’ll also advise what ID and proof of ownership we’ll need on arrival. -
On-Site Assessment
A technician arrives in a fully equipped mobile unit. We run diagnostics to check the immobiliser, KVM/RFA module, and key status. If you’re locked out, we’ll open the vehicle using non-destructive techniques first. -
Agree The Plan
We explain the best approach, cost, and timescales. If a simple OBD2 key programming job is possible, we proceed. If an All Keys Lost situation requires KVM/RFA access and EEPROM programming, we’ll discuss what’s involved and obtain your approval. -
Programming And Key Cutting
We programme a new smart key or remote, pair it to your Land Rover’s immobiliser, and cut the emergency key blade. For newer models, we use advanced tools and follow secure procedures to ensure correct pairing and anti-theft compliance. -
Deleting Missing Keys
For security, we can de-authorise any lost or stolen keys so they can’t start your vehicle. -
Testing And Handover
We test central locking, keyless entry (if fitted), push-to-start, and the emergency blade. You’ll receive guidance on care, battery life, and what to do if you encounter interference or a low-key battery warning. -
Warranty And Aftercare
All workmanship is guaranteed, with warranties on keys/fobs supplied. If you’d like a spare set for backup, we can often supply and programme it during the same visit.
We take care to maintain stable battery voltage during programming to protect sensitive modules. Your vehicle remains in safe hands from start to finish.

Pricing And Quotes For Land Rover Keys And Unlocking
We don’t publish fixed prices because every job varies. Your cost will depend on factors such as:
- Model and year of your Land Rover or Range Rover
- Key type (traditional, remote, smart/proximity)
- Whether you have a working key or it’s an All Keys Lost situation
- The service required (unlock only, key repair, new key programming, module work)
- Timing and location (daytime, evening, weekend, roadside, etc.)
We’ll give you a free, accurate quote before we start—no surprises. In many cases, a mobile auto locksmith is more convenient and cost-effective than a main dealer, especially when you factor in recovery/towing and waiting times.

FAQs
Can you make a Land Rover key without the original?
Yes. We can create and programme a new key even if you’ve lost all keys. Depending on the model and year, this may be completed via OBD2 or require accessing the KVM/RFA module for bench programming. We’ll confirm the exact approach during your free quote.
How long does a new Land Rover or Range Rover key take?
Many spare key jobs are completed within a single visit. All Keys Lost situations take longer, particularly on newer models, as we must follow secure procedures and may need to remove and programme modules. We’ll set expectations clearly when you call.
Will you damage my Range Rover when unlocking it?
Our first approach is always non-destructive entry using professional tools and methods suitable for modern Land Rovers. Only in rare, pre-agreed circumstances—such as specific faults or seized components—would we take a different approach, and we’ll discuss it with you beforehand.
Can you reprogram a used Land Rover key fob?
Generally no. JLR smart keys are typically locked to the original vehicle once programmed. We supply new, virgin keys or genuine replacements that can be correctly paired to your Land Rover and fully warranted.
My Range Rover says “Key Not Detected.” What should I do?
Try your spare key if you have one, and replace the key battery. Move the fob away from mobile phones or other electronics that might cause interference. If the warning persists, there may be a key, antenna, or module issue. We can diagnose the fault and either repair the fob or programme a replacement.
Do you cover evenings and weekends?
Yes, we provide mobile coverage across North London with flexible scheduling for urgent problems. Call us and we’ll arrange the fastest, most convenient visit we can.
North London Coverage Across N Postcodes
We serve the entire N area, including N1–N22 and surrounding neighbourhoods. Whether you’re in a car park in Islington, outside your home in Muswell Hill, or roadside in Enfield, we’ll dispatch a fully equipped mobile unit.
