How Our Peugeot Auto Locksmith Service Works
We keep it simple, safe, and efficient:
-
Identification and permissions
We verify you’re the vehicle keeper and confirm the VIN where needed. This protects you and your car. -
Non-destructive entry wherever possible
Locked out? We use specialist lock-picking and air-wedge tools to gain entry without damage in the vast majority of cases. In rare instances where destructive methods are unavoidable (for example, severely damaged locks), we explain options and costs before proceeding. -
Peugeot diagnostics and key programming
- OBD2 diagnostics to access the immobiliser/BSI (Body Systems Interface) where supported.
- EEPROM programming for models that require advanced coding or when all keys are lost.
- Transponder key programming and remote key programming using dealer-level equipment.
- ECU/immobiliser programming and synchronisation if needed.
- Cutting and testing
- Laser-cut and standard key cutting to Peugeot specifications.
- Flip key repair, key blade replacement, and shell refresh available.
- Full testing of central locking, remote buttons, and engine start. We don’t leave until your Peugeot starts and locks/unlocks correctly.
- Aftercare and warranty
We provide guidance on key care, battery replacement, and offer warranty on new keys and workmanship.
When You Might Need Peugeot Key Programming
Peugeot vehicles use immobiliser technology that requires keys to be paired to the car:
- All keys lost or stolen
- New spare key required for convenience and backup
- Replacement of a faulty remote or proximity key
- ECU, BSI, or immobiliser replacement or update
- “Key not detected,” “immobiliser active,” or a key symbol on the dash

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you make a Peugeot key without the original?
Yes. We can create a new key from your Peugeot using diagnostics and, where needed, EEPROM methods. This is common when all keys are lost. Proof of ownership is required.
Will you damage my Peugeot when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive techniques wherever possible. On Peugeot models with good lock access, entry is typically damage-free. If a rare destructive method is the only safe route due to a faulty lock, we explain options first.
How long does Peugeot key programming take?
Most jobs are completed during a single visit. Times vary by model, year, and whether all keys are lost. A spare key is usually quicker than an all-keys-lost scenario.
Can you program a Peugeot smart/proximity key?
Absolutely. We handle modern Peugeot proximity keys and push-to-start systems using dealer-level equipment, OBD2, and EEPROM where required.
My Peugeot says “key not detected.” What should I do?
Try a fresh key battery and hold the key near the steering column or the marked backup start location, if applicable. If it still won’t start, we can diagnose the key, antenna ring, and immobiliser to restore function.
Do you work on Peugeot vans like Partner, Expert, and Boxer?
Yes. We support Peugeot commercial vehicles for fleets and sole traders, including spare keys, all-keys-lost situations, and urgent unlocking.
