- Keep your original keys working unless you ask us to erase lost/stolen keys

If your key was stolen, see guidance on lost or stolen car keys.

FAQs

Yes. We can create a new key from your Porsche using specialist decoding, high-precision cutting, and immobiliser programming. We verify ownership and use dealer-level tools to pair the new key securely to your car.
Will you damage my Porsche when unlocking it?
We use professional, non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a lock is already damaged or a rare exception applies, we’ll explain the situation and agree a plan before any work proceeds.
How long does Porsche key programming take?
Most jobs are completed during a single mobile visit. Timing depends on model, year, and whether all keys are lost. After diagnosis, we’ll give you a realistic timeframe on site.

Often, yes. As a mobile service we come to you and can frequently supply, cut, and program keys sooner than dealership lead times, saving towing and wait time. For more details, see auto locksmith prices in Twickenham.
