01 · Is this you?
Sounds familiar?
- The car came with only one key
- The spare has been lost, or went with an ex, a relative or a sold car
- The spare's remote has stopped working and you'd rather replace it
- You'd like a key for another driver in the house
A spare costs far less, and is far less stress, than the day the only key goes missing. Many used cars come with a single key, and it's usually the first thing a new owner meant to sort out.
We cut and program the spare at the car, then test it alongside your existing key. If you've lost a spare rather than never having one, we can also remove the missing key from the car's memory at the same visit.

03 · How it works
How it works.
01
Tell us the car
The reg, make, model and year, so the right key blank comes with us. You get a fixed quote first.
02
Bring your key
Have your working key, the V5C logbook and photo ID with you at the car.
03
Cut and program
The spare is cut to your car and programmed to it: the immobiliser chip and, for remote keys, the buttons.
04
Both keys tested
Locking, unlocking and starting, on the new key and the old one, before we leave.
04 · Before we start
What we'll need to see.
V5C logbook
Or another document naming you as the registered keeper, such as a finance or lease agreement for the car.
Photo ID
Driving licence or passport, with a name and address that match the ownership document.
Registration and VIN
The reg is enough to start. The 17-digit VIN (bottom of the windscreen, or on the V5C) lets us confirm exactly which key the car takes.
05 · Cost
A fixed price, first.
The price depends on the car and the key it takes, so it's worked out for yours: send the reg, or the make, model and year, and you'll get a fixed quote before anything is booked.
If you're claiming on insurance or key cover, ask for an itemised invoice with the vehicle details on it.

09 · Where we work
We come to you.
Before you enquire
Questions, answered.
01Can you program a key I've bought online?
Sometimes, but ask first. Many keys sold online are used and already locked to another car, or aren't the right chip for yours, and a key that can't be programmed can't be sent back once it's cut. Tell us the listing and the car and we'll say whether it's worth buying.
02Will the buttons work on the spare?
Yes, for a remote key: the buttons are programmed as well as the immobiliser chip, and both are tested before we leave.
03Can you make a spare keyless fob?
For many cars, yes. Keyless fobs are programmed at the car in the same way. Tell us the reg and we'll confirm for yours.
