What We Can Do During an Emergency

  • Non-Destructive Vehicle Unlocking
    We use specialist lock picks and access tools designed for your make/model to avoid damage wherever possible. If a destructive method is the only option (rare), we’ll explain why and discuss costs before proceeding.

  • Emergency Car Key Replacement and Cutting
    Lost or stolen keys? We can cut and program new keys at the roadside for many vehicles, including Ford, VW, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Vauxhall, Nissan, Toyota, Kia, Hyundai, and more. We stock high-security laser cut key blades and can produce spare car keys on-site if requested.

  • Car Key Programming and Fob Repair
    If your transponder chip has lost sync or your smart key isn’t detected, we offer on-site car key programming using dealer-level OBD2 tools. For certain models, EEPROM or ECU/immobiliser programming may be required—our technicians are trained and experienced in these advanced procedures. We can also diagnose and repair faulty key fobs, replace dead batteries, and re-synchronise remotes.

  • Broken Key and Ignition Issues
    Got a car key snapped in the lock or ignition? We provide broken car key extraction and, if needed, ignition repair and replacement. We’ll assess wear, lubricate or repair the barrel, and ensure the new or repaired key turns smoothly.

  • Security After Key Loss or Theft
    For stolen car keys, we can erase old keys from your vehicle’s system and program new ones, helping prevent unauthorised access. We’ll advise on immobiliser resets, door lock changes where required, and practical steps to keep your car secure.

If you have questions about your specific model, our brands we cover page showcases the makes we regularly handle.

Emergency FAQs

Will you damage my car when unlocking it?

We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible. Our tools are designed for specific locks and models to prevent damage. In rare cases where a destructive method is the only viable option (for example, severe lock failure), we’ll explain clearly and get your approval before starting.

Can you help during evenings, weekends, or holidays?

Yes. We provide emergency auto locksmith support outside normal hours. Call us, and we’ll confirm availability and the next steps for your location in the RH area.

I’ve lost my only car key—can you make a new one on-site?

In most cases, yes. We can cut and program a new key at the roadside, often faster and more conveniently than a main dealer. For some vehicles, immobiliser data access (EEPROM/ECU) may be required, which we can handle. If your car keys were stolen, we can also erase the old keys from the system.

My car says “key not detected.” What should I do?

Try replacing the fob battery if you have a spare. If that doesn’t work, the key may need re-synchronising or programming, or there could be an antenna/immobiliser issue. Call us—our mobile diagnostics can identify the fault and restore function on-site.

The key snapped in my ignition—can you remove it?

Yes. We carry specialist broken key extraction tools and can often remove the blade without replacing the lock. If the ignition barrel is worn or damaged, we can repair or replace it and provide a correctly cut key.

How quickly can you get to me?

We don’t advertise fixed ETAs, but we operate efficient, mobile coverage from Redhill across all RH postcodes. When you call, we’ll give you a realistic timeframe based on your exact location and our closest technician.

Do you offer a warranty?

Yes. All new keys and our workmanship are covered by a clear warranty. We’ll explain the details on-site and provide aftercare advice.
