How We Work
-
Assessment and ID Check
We confirm your vehicle details, location, and proof of ownership. This keeps you and your car protected. -
Non-Destructive Entry
For lockouts, we use specialist picks, air wedges, and lishi tools to open your vehicle without damage wherever possible. If a rare exception is unavoidable due to a specific fault, we’ll explain options and get your approval first. -
Diagnostics and Programming
Using dealer-level equipment and OBD2 diagnostics, we read immobiliser data, pair new keys, and, when needed, perform EEPROM-level programming for certain brands and model years. This ensures the new key communicates securely with your ECU. -
Cutting and Testing
We cut high-accuracy blades (including laser cut and high-security vehicle keys), then program and test the transponder and remote functions—lock/unlock, boot release, and start/stop—before we hand over the key. -
Handover and Warranty
All workmanship and new keys come with a clear warranty. We’ll show you how to use any new fob features and share tips to prevent future lockouts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you unlock my car on Oxford Street without damage?
Yes—non-destructive entry is our first approach. We use specialist tools designed for modern locks. If there’s a rare situation where a different method is required (for example, a faulty lock or deadlocking issue), we’ll explain it and obtain your approval first.
I’ve lost my only key while shopping—can you make a new one on-site?
In most cases, yes. We can create and program a new key without the original using our diagnostic equipment, and if the situation calls for it we can perform EEPROM programming. This applies to most major brands.
My key fob isn’t detected in an underground car park—what now?
We can meet you at the car park entrance or on your level, run diagnostics, replace the fob battery if needed, check for interference issues, and reprogram the fob if it has de-synchronised. If the immobiliser or antenna is at fault, we’ll advise on the quickest fix.
Do you cover evenings and weekends in W1?
Yes. We offer emergency support outside standard hours. For urgent lockouts or key problems in the West End, call and we’ll dispatch a mobile unit.
