FAQs For Brentford Drivers
Can you make a car key without the original?
Yes. In most cases we can create a new key without the original by decoding the lock, using vehicle data, or performing immobiliser programming. This is often quicker and more convenient than a dealer. For guidance, see car key replacement in Twickenham.
Will you damage my vehicle when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. In rare cases where components are already damaged or a lock is beyond recovery, we’ll explain options and obtain your approval before any invasive work.
How long does it take to get a new car key?
Many replacements are completed in a single visit. Timing depends on the vehicle, key type (remote/smart/proximity), and whether immobiliser programming or EEPROM work is required. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when you call.
My key fob stopped working in Brentford—what now?
It could be a flat battery, worn buttons, or a programming fault. We’ll test the fob, replace batteries or shells if needed, and reprogram it on site. Learn more at key fob not working.
Do you cover vans and commercial vehicles in TW8?
Yes. We work with popular vans (e.g., Ford Transit, Vauxhall Vivaro, Mercedes Sprinter) and fleets. See our van and commercial locksmith service for details.
Is a locksmith cheaper than a dealer for keys?
Often yes—especially when you’re immobilised and need mobile help. We can come to you in Brentford, saving recovery and waiting time. For more on costs, see auto locksmith prices in Twickenham.
