Transponder and chip keys
Most modern cars use a key with a small chip that the car's immobiliser must recognise before the engine will start. A replacement key has to be both cut and programmed. We can do this at your location for many makes and models; call with the year, make and model so we can confirm before we come out. Learn more in chip key replacement explained.
Ignition problems
A key that sticks, won't turn or turns without starting the car can point to a worn key, a worn ignition cylinder or a chip that is not being read. We diagnose which it is before recommending a repair, a new key or a replacement cylinder.
Locked out of your car?
Stay with your vehicle if it is safe, keep your ID handy and call us with your exact location. Avoid coat hangers or wedges, which can damage weather seals, wiring and paint. Our article car lockouts: why to call a professional explains why.
Comparing with a dealership? Many owners find a mobile locksmith more convenient because we come to the car. Ask for a quote and compare.

Automotive locksmith FAQs
Can you make a car key if I've lost all of them?
In many cases, yes. We may need the vehicle's VIN and proof of ownership such as registration plus your ID.
Can you program a key fob I bought online?
Sometimes. Some aftermarket fobs can't be programmed to every car. Call with the part details and we'll tell you honestly.
Do I need to tow my car to you?
No. We are a mobile service and work on the car where it is, if it is safe to do so.
