All Car Keys Lost
If you have lost all of your car keys, we can still provide a replacement for many makes and models. With no working key available to copy from, the replacement key has to be cut and programmed from the vehicle rather than just duplicating an existing key.
Our mobile service comes out to you wherever the car is parked. It doesn’t matter whether that is your driveway, your workplace or a car park, we bring the equipment with us. There is no need to arrange recovery to a garage or main dealer.
Step 2: Open The Vehicle
If the doors are locked we pick the vehicle open. We open it
without damage using a technique called non-destructive entry. See our
Step 3: Decode Lock And Cut Key
Once the lock is picked, we can decode the lock barrel to tell us how to cut the key. We then cut the new key using high precision key cutting equipment.
Step: 4 Programme New Car Key
We then need to programme your new car key to the vehicle. To do this we need to read information from your vehicle's engine control module.
Step 5: Test New Car Keys
We test everything multiple times before we leave. The key needs to turn in the door locks and ignition, disable the immobiliser and start the car.
Step 6: Delete Lost or Stolen Keys
Once the job is completed we can also remove any lost or stolen keys from the vehicle's memory. This renders the old keys useless if they end up in the wrong hands.
