How Our Mobile Service Works In Hillingdon
We aim to make the process simple and stress-free:
-
Assessment and quote
Tell us your vehicle make, model, year, and what’s happened. We’ll provide a clear, no-obligation estimate. -
We come to you
A fully equipped technician is dispatched to your location in Hillingdon. We use non-destructive entry wherever possible. If a rare destructive method is the only safe option (for example, due to lock failure or high-security deadlocking), we’ll explain it first and obtain your approval. -
On-site diagnostics and solutions
Using dealer-level equipment, we can unlock your vehicle, cut new keys, and complete car key programming at the roadside. Our tools include OBD2 diagnostics, EEPROM programming for certain immobiliser systems, and key cutting machinery for laser cut and high-security keys. -
Test and handover
We test everything thoroughly—locking, starting, and remote functions—before handing back your keys. Workmanship and new keys are covered by our warranty for peace of mind.
Car Key Replacement And Programming In UB10
Modern vehicles use immobilisers and transponders to protect against theft. Your key or fob contains a transponder—essentially a small chip that talks to your car—to allow it to start. If the chip isn’t recognised, the engine won’t crank. That’s why car key programming is essential when you replace a key or fob.
We support:
- Transponder key programming and chip synchronisation
- Smart key programming for push-to-start systems
- Remote key programming, keyless entry programming, and proximity key replacement
- ECU/immobiliser programming and EEPROM solutions for specific models
- Key blade replacement and flip key repair
If your key fob is not responding or your car says “key not detected,” our Car Key Programming service can help. For sudden fob failures, see our helpful guide to a key fob not working.
Non-Destructive Vehicle Unlocking In Hillingdon
Wherever possible, we use non-destructive entry methods. That means professional lock-picking and decoding techniques designed to protect your vehicle’s locks and bodywork. In rare cases—such as severe lock malfunction, damaged mechanisms, or certain secure deadlocks—we’ll discuss options clearly, gain your permission, and ensure any work is carried out neatly and professionally.

FAQs For Hillingdon Drivers
Can you make a car key without the original?
Yes. In many cases we can create a new key without the original by decoding the locks and programming a suitable transponder or smart key. This is quicker and more convenient than waiting for a main dealer. If you’ve lost your only key, see our advice on lost or stolen car keys.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a lock is faulty or a security system demands an alternative approach, we’ll explain the options and get your approval first.
How long does it take to get a new key?
Most replacements can be completed in one visit at your location in Hillingdon. Timing depends on make, model, and key type (remote, smart/proximity, or laser cut). We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when you call.
Can you program smart keys and push-to-start systems?
Yes. We handle smart key programming, proximity keys, and push-button start systems using OBD2 and dealer-level diagnostics. For certain vehicles, EEPROM or immobiliser programming may be required, which we can also provide.
Do you cover vans and fleets in UB10?
Absolutely. We support Transits, Vivaros, Sprinters, Transporters and more, including fleet key management, replacements, and central locking repairs. See our Van & Commercial Locksmith service.
Are your technicians insured and DBS-checked?
Yes. All technicians are DBS-checked and covered by public liability insurance. Our workmanship and new keys carry a warranty.
