Yes — we are a fully mobile service. The van carries a key cutting machine, diagnostic equipment and key stock, so the whole job happens wherever your vehicle is parked. There is no need to recover it anywhere.
Most spare key jobs are finished within about an hour of us arriving. An all-keys-lost job takes longer because the blade has to be cut to code first, but the vast majority are still completed in a single visit.
We are open seven days a week, 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM — including weekends and bank holidays. We are not a 24-hour service, so if you call outside those hours we will pick the job up as soon as we open.
Almost always, and usually by a significant margin. You also avoid recovery costs, because a dealer will normally want the vehicle brought to them for a lost-key job while we work at the roadside.
The make, model, year and registration when you call, and proof that the vehicle is yours when we arrive — V5 logbook, insurance documents or a driving licence matching the address. This protects every customer we work for.
Usually yes, provided it is the correct part for your vehicle and the electronics are sound. Quality varies a lot on cheaper listings, so tell us what you have bought when you call and we will let you know honestly whether it is likely to work.
Yes — that is one of the jobs we do most. We generate a brand new key with nothing to copy from, and where the vehicle supports it we can erase the old keys so a lost or stolen set can no longer start your car.
We do. Proximity and smart fobs are supplied and coded for a wide range of keyless vehicles. If a fob has simply lost sync or the battery has died, we will diagnose that first rather than sell you a replacement you do not need.
Maidstone and the surrounding Kent towns and villages, including Aylesford, Bearsted, Larkfield, West Malling, Snodland, Headcorn, Staplehurst, Lenham and Coxheath, plus the Medway towns. If you are unsure, call and ask.
Card and bank transfer are both accepted, and payment is taken once the key is working and you have tested it yourself. Businesses and trade accounts can be invoiced.
Have these four things ready
- Make, model and year — a 2014 Corsa and a 2019 Corsa are different jobs
- Registration — lets us check exactly which key and chip your car uses
- What has happened — lost, snapped, stopped working, or just want a spare
- Where the vehicle is — a postcode is enough to work out timings
Locked out, or down to one key?
Tell us the make, model and registration and we will give you a straight answer on price and timing. We come to the vehicle, seven days a week.
