- Locked keys in the car: Keys in the boot after loading gear? Our non-destructive entry techniques protect your vehicle.
- Broken or snapped key: If your key blade snaps in the lock or ignition, we can extract it and cut a replacement.
- Key or fob not working: From dead batteries to immobiliser sync issues, we diagnose and fix fast.
- Ignition or door lock problems: Stiff locks, keys not turning, or steering lock faults can be repaired or replaced on site.
If one of these sounds familiar, see our guides on lost or stolen car keys, broken car key, and key fob not working.
How We Fix Car Key And Lock Problems
We use a careful, step-by-step approach designed to save you time and avoid damage:
-
Assessment and ID
- We confirm vehicle details (make, model, year) and proof of ownership. This ensures security and the right technical route.
-
Non-Destructive Entry Wherever Possible
- Using specialist picks, air wedges, and lishi tools, we open most vehicles without damage. On rare occasions where drilling is unavoidable (e.g., severely damaged locks), we explain the reasons and obtain approval before proceeding.
-
Dealer-Level Diagnostics
- Our mobile vans carry OBD2 diagnostic tools to read immobiliser data and pair new keys or fobs. For complex cases or certain brands, we can perform EEPROM work to safely program keys to the ECU/immobiliser.
-
Key Cutting & Programming
- We cut laser or standard keys precisely and handle transponder key programming, remote key programming, and smart key programming, including proximity/push-to-start systems.
-
Testing & Handover
- We test door locks, ignition start, remote functions, and central locking. You’ll receive clear guidance on warranties and aftercare before we leave.
