FAQs

Car key replacement FAQs

Can you replace my car key if I’ve lost the only one?

Yes. We cut and program a completely new key from scratch. No original needed. We carry equipment for all major makes and models and complete this on-site at your location.

How long does car key replacement take?

Most replacements are completed in under 60 minutes. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when you call.

Do you cover my make and model?

We cover the vast majority of makes and models, including Ford, Vauxhall, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Toyota, and more. Call us to confirm if you’re unsure.

Is car key replacement cheaper than the dealer?

Almost always, yes. And much faster. We come to you, so there’s no recovery charge, no waiting for an appointment, and no dealership markup.

Can you cut and program a key on-site?

Yes. Our mobile vans are fully equipped to cut and program replacement keys at your location, including transponder keys, remote fobs, and smart keys.

What types of car keys can you replace?

We replace all key types, including transponder keys (chip keys), remote fobs, smart keys and keyless entry systems, flip keys, and standard blade keys. If you’re not sure what type of key you have, we’ll identify it on the call.

Will my new key work with all my car’s features?

Yes. We program your replacement key to the vehicle’s ECU, which means all functions — central locking, immobiliser, and keyless entry where applicable — will work exactly as they did with your original key.

Do I need to be with the car when you arrive?

Yes. For security reasons we require the registered keeper or an authorised person to be present with proof of ownership or ID. A driving licence, V5C, or insurance document is sufficient.
