FAQs

Can you make a van key without the original?

Yes. We can create a new key from your van’s locks or security data, then program it to the immobiliser using OBD2 or EEPROM methods as required. This avoids expensive towing and dealer delays.

Will you damage my van when unlocking it?

We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If prior damage or an extreme security configuration leaves no alternative, we will explain options and get your approval before any invasive work.

Do you cover evenings and weekends for commercial callouts?

Yes. We provide emergency support for urgent commercial lockouts and key issues across Maidstone and the ME postcode area. For immediate help, see our emergency auto locksmith in Maidstone.

Can you program spare keys for all my fleet vans in one visit?

In many cases, yes. We regularly carry out multi-vehicle programming sessions for fleets. Share your make/model list and we’ll plan an efficient on-site visit.

My key fob stopped working after I changed the battery—can you fix it?

Usually. We’ll test the fob, check for desynchronisation, and reprogram or replace the fob if needed. See our advice on a key fob not working.

Do you offer warranties on keys and programming?

Yes. We guarantee our workmanship and provide warranties on keys and fobs where applicable. We’ll confirm terms on your quote.
