How We Solve Your Car Key Problem
We bring the workshop to you. Our vans carry dealer-level diagnostics and specialist tools to tackle everything from simple unlocks to advanced programming.
- Non-destructive entry: We open vehicles using specialist picks and air wedges wherever possible, protecting paintwork and seals. If drilling or part removal is unavoidable (rare), we explain options and costs first.
- On-vehicle diagnostics: We use OBD2 diagnostics to read immobiliser data and pair new keys or fobs to your vehicle.
- Transponder and smart keys: We handle transponder key programming, remote key programming, and smart/proximity key setup. For certain models we perform EEPROM and ECU/immobiliser programming when required.
- Key cutting on-site: We cut standard and laser cut car keys from code or locks and can clone or program new chips.
- Repair options: Where viable, we repair faulty key fobs, replace key blades, and resolve ignition switch problems to save you money.
- Testing and handover: Before we leave, we test doors, boot, ignition and remote functions with you.

FAQs For West Kilburn Drivers
Can you unlock my car without damaging it?
Yes. We use non-destructive techniques—specialist picks, wedges and decoding tools—wherever possible. If a lock is severely damaged or a manufacturer design requires a different approach, we’ll discuss options with you before proceeding.
Can a locksmith make a car key without the original?
In most cases, yes. We can create a key from your vehicle’s lock or immobiliser data, then program it to the car. This includes many modern transponder and smart keys. For complex cases, we may use EEPROM or ECU/immobiliser programming.
How long does it take to get a new car key?
Most replacements are completed during a single visit. Timing varies by make, model, key type (basic, remote, smart/proximity) and whether all keys are lost. We’ll give you an accurate timeframe when you call.
My car says “key not detected.” What should I do?
Try a fresh battery in the fob and hold it against the start button (many cars have a backup reader). If it still won’t start, the transponder or remote may need programming or repair. We can diagnose and fix this on-site in West Kilburn.
Do you cover evenings and weekends?
We provide emergency support for lockouts, lost keys and urgent issues across West Kilburn, evenings and weekends included. If you need immediate help, please call.
Are you cheaper than a main dealer?
Often yes—especially for mobile convenience and speed. We save you towing costs and waiting times. For a tailored figure, get in touch for a free, no-obligation quote or see our guide to auto locksmith prices in West London.
