How Our Car Locksmith Service Works
We aim to make a stressful moment as straightforward as possible:
- Diagnosis and Access
- We start by confirming your vehicle details (make, model, year, VIN if needed) and the symptoms you’re facing.
- For lockouts, we use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. Specialist picks, air wedges, and vehicle-specific tools help us open the car without damage. In rare cases where drilling a lock is the only safe option, we’ll explain why and obtain your approval first.
- Key Cutting and Coding
- If you need a replacement or spare, we cut a new key on site with calibrated cutting machines, including laser cut car keys and high-security profiles.
- We program the transponder chip and remote functions using dealer-level diagnostics via the OBD2 port, or advanced EEPROM methods for certain vehicles that require direct immobiliser data work.
- Testing and Handover
- We test door locks, remote functions, and engine start to make sure everything works correctly.
- You’ll receive a clear explanation of the work completed, any warranties on keys and workmanship, and advice on safeguarding your new keys.
Advanced Tools and Training You Can Trust
Modern vehicles (2024/2025) use sophisticated immobiliser systems. Our technicians are trained across major UK makes and models, including Ford, Vauxhall, Volkswagen (VW), BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Toyota, Kia, Hyundai, Peugeot, Renault, Land Rover, and more. We invest in:
- Dealer-level diagnostics for transponder and remote key programming
- OBD2 and EEPROM programming capabilities for complex immobilisers
- High-accuracy cutting for laser cut and high-security vehicle keys
- Non-destructive entry tools tailored to different brands
If your key won’t start the car, displays a key symbol on the dash, or your car says “key not detected,” we can diagnose and resolve the issue on site in most cases.
