FAQs For Horsted Keynes Drivers
Can you make a new car key without the original in Horsted Keynes?
Yes. In most cases we can create and program a new key without the original by decoding the lock, cutting a new blade, and coding a transponder/smart key to your immobiliser. This is all done on-site in RH17.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible. If a lock is severely damaged or a vehicle is deadlocked and requires a different approach, we’ll explain the method and costs before any work starts.
How long does it take to replace a car key?
Most keys are completed in one visit, often within the same appointment. Timing depends on your vehicle, key type (standard, remote, or smart/proximity), and whether immobiliser programming or EEPROM work is required.
Do you work weekends and evenings in RH17?
Yes. We provide emergency assistance with flexible hours, including weekends and holidays. For urgent help, it’s best to call so we can prioritise your job.
Is a mobile auto locksmith cheaper than a dealer?
