Keys cut and programmed, on the spot
From a spare key while you still have one, through to a full all-keys-lost recovery. Plain answers and honest quotes, never a promise we cannot keep.
Spare keys typically from $200. Older models can be less. All keys lost is quoted per job, and we confirm the price before we start.
Spare keys
Still have a working key? Get a spare programmed now. It is cheaper and easier than waiting until every key is lost, and it saves you a much bigger job later. This is the one we tell everyone to do.
All keys lost
Lost every key to the car? We can get you back in and program a fresh key on many models. All-keys-lost is more involved than a spare, so call and we will confirm what your vehicle needs.
Transponder programming
The chip inside the key has to be matched to your car immobiliser or the engine will not start. We program transponder keys across a wide range of makes.
Remote and flip keys
Remote locking and unlocking, and flip keys that fold into the fob. We program the remote and the transponder together in the one visit.
Smart and proximity keys
Keyless entry and push-button start keys, the type you keep in your pocket. Support varies by make and model, so call to confirm yours.
Immobiliser troubleshooting
Key turns but the car will not start, or the immobiliser light stays on? We diagnose immobiliser and key faults and tell you what is actually going on.
Every key we program is tested in front of you before we call it done.
- It locks.
- It unlocks.
- It starts the car.
If it does not pass, we do not call it done. You walk away with a key that works.
Lost all your keys? Take a breath.
It happens, and it is sortable. You do not need a tow truck and you do not have to get the car to a dealer. Call or text the key line, confirm what the vehicle needs, and we will get you a working key.
All-keys-lost is a bigger job than a spare, so the honest move, if you ever get down to one key, is to get a spare made before they all go missing.
What to have ready
A few things help us get you sorted faster.
- Rego or VIN. Your number plate or the vehicle identification number lets us check what your car needs.
- Photo ID. We confirm you are the owner before we program any keys. It keeps your car safe.
Professional equipment, with 40 years behind it
We run a dealer-level diagnostic and key programming platform, the same class of tool used across the locksmith trade. It cuts and codes transponder, remote and smart keys, and handles immobiliser work on a wide range of makes.
The equipment is only half the story. Behind the key work is 40 years of mechanic experience, so faults get read properly instead of guessed at. That pairing, proper key programming gear and a mechanic who knows the rest of the car, is what sets the key work apart.
