We blend skilled, DBS-checked technicians with dealer-level tools to deliver a safe, efficient fix at the roadside or your home:

Assessment and ID

-
Non-Destructive Vehicle Unlocking
- We use specialist lock picks and air wedges to gain entry without damage wherever possible. This includes modern cars with deadlocking.
-
Car Key Replacement & Cutting

Car Key Programming
- We program transponder keys, remote key fobs, and smart/proximity keys. For certain vehicles, EEPROM key programming or ECU/immobiliser programming may be required. Our equipment and training match dealer-level capability across 2024/2025 models.
-
Key Fob Repair & Batteries
- We repair cracked shells, replace key blades, and fix common remote faults. If it’s just a dead battery, we’ll replace it and test the signal to confirm all is well.
