Frequently Asked Questions
Can you make a new car key without the original?
Yes. In most cases we can create a new key from scratch using your vehicle identification number and lock/immobiliser data. We’ll then program it to your ECU. This is often faster and more convenient than visiting a dealer.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible, such as specialist picks and air wedges. If there’s a rare scenario where minimal drilling is required due to severe damage or previous tampering, we’ll explain it clearly before starting.
How long does it take to get a new car key?
Most standard replacements and programming are completed during a single visit. The time varies by make, model, and key type, but many drivers are back on the road the same day.
Can you program smart keys and keyless entry fobs?
Absolutely. We handle smart/proximity keys, push-to-start systems, and remote central locking for most brands using OBD2 diagnostics and, where necessary, EEPROM/ECU programming.
Do you cover evenings and weekends in South Kilburn?
Yes. Our mobile service covers South Kilburn and NW6 with emergency availability. For urgent issues like a lockout or lost-only key, please call us.
What if my key snapped in the ignition?
We can perform broken ignition key extraction and assess the barrel for wear or damage. If needed, we can repair or replace ignition components and supply a new programmed key.
