How Our Mobile Auto Locksmith Service Works
We prioritise clear communication and efficient, non-destructive methods wherever possible.
- Diagnose Your Issue
- We’ll ask for your vehicle make, model, year, and a quick description (e.g., “locked keys in car” or “key not detected”).
- For electronic faults, we may run OBD2 diagnostics to identify immobiliser or key recognition errors.
- Gain Entry Or Create Your Key
- Vehicle Unlocking: We use specialist lock picks and air wedges designed for each vehicle type to prevent damage.
- Key Replacement: We cut a new blade (including laser cut car keys) and carry out transponder key programming or smart key programming using dealer-level equipment. For some vehicles, we perform EEPROM procedures or ECU/immobiliser programming to sync a new key securely.
- Test, Warranty, And Advice
- We test the remote/central locking, start the car, and confirm immobiliser pairing.
- You’ll receive warranty details for the key and our workmanship, plus tips to prevent future issues (like storing a spare at home).
In rare cases—such as severely damaged locks, heavy corrosion, or certain high-security models—minor drilling or component replacement may be required. We’ll explain why, outline the risks, and get your approval before proceeding.

Most vehicle unlocking jobs are completed quickly once we arrive. For new keys, timings vary by make, model, and whether we’re cutting a blade and programming a remote or smart key. We’ll give a clear estimate when you call.
