FAQs For Drivers In Twickenham
Can a locksmith make a car key without the original?
Yes. We can create a new key from your vehicle using specialist decoding and programming tools. We’ll need proof of ownership and ID. This is often faster and more convenient than a dealer.
How long does it take to get a new car key?
Many keys can be cut and programmed on-site within a single visit. Time varies by make, model, and key type (standard transponder vs. smart/proximity). We’ll advise a realistic timeframe when you call.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. In rare cases where a component is severely damaged or security design requires it, we’ll explain and obtain approval before proceeding.
My car key fob stopped working in Twickenham – what should I do?
First, check the battery. If a new battery doesn’t solve it, the issue could be the fob circuitry, programming, or the car’s receiver. We can diagnose and provide a key fob programming service on the spot.
Can you program smart or proximity keys for push-to-start cars?
Yes. We handle smart key programming and immobiliser pairing for many brands, using OBD2 and, where necessary, EEPROM and ECU programming methods.
Are you available at weekends or evenings?
Yes. We provide emergency support across Twickenham for evenings, weekends, and bank holidays. If you need urgent help now, see our emergency auto locksmith Twickenham page.
