Professional Car Key Cutting Services

In our experience, most people need car key cutting in London for one of three reasons. They have lost their only key. The key has snapped in half. Or they are being smart and getting a spare cut before something goes wrong. That third group are the clever ones honestly.

We are fully licensed and insured. All our technicians carry proper credentials. This matters more than people realize. Some cowboy locksmiths operate with no insurance and dodgy equipment. If they damage your car during the job, you are stuck with the bill. We carry two million in public liability coverage specifically to protect customers.

CAR KEY CUTTING

Broken Key Extraction and Ignition Repair

If your key is broken or damaged, our broken key duplication service can create a new key from the damaged one. We use careful techniques to ensure accuracy and reliability.

Here is the thing about modern car keys. They are not just bits of metal anymore. Most vehicles made after 2000 have transponder chips or remote fobs. The physical key needs cutting to the right pattern. Then the chip needs programming to match your car’s immobilizer system.Some forum discussions online make it sound simple. Cut the key, stick it in, done. Not quite. The cutting part is straightforward if you have the right machines. Programming is where it gets technical. Each manufacturer uses different systems. BMW uses one method. Ford uses another. Vauxhall does something completely different.


By operating locally across London, we reduce delays, avoid unnecessary towing, and deliver faster solutions right at your car location.

Our Mobile Key Cutting Process

Contact Us

Step one is you call us or fill out the contact form. We ask for your car make, model, and year. We also need to know your location and whether you have any working keys left. This helps us bring the right equipment and blank keys.

dispatch

We send the nearest available technician to your location. Could be your home, your workplace, a car park, wherever the car is. Our vans are fully equipped mobile workshops. Key cutting machines, programming tools, blank keys for most common vehicles, the works..

verification

When we arrive, we need proof you own the vehicle. V5 registration document works. Sometimes photo ID matching the registration address. We are not trying to be difficult but you can imagine why we check. Car key cutting without proper verification would be sketchy as hell.

work

We cut the new key to match your existing one if you have it. If not, we can cut from the lock itself or from the key code. Then we program it. We test everything before we leave. Key turns smoothly. Car starts. 

What Happens If You Ignore a Worn Key

Here is something most people do not think about. Car keys wear down over time. The cuts get shallower. The key starts feeling sticky in the lock. Eventually it stops working altogether.

If you wait until the key completely fails, you are looking at the expensive option. Emergency car key cutting in London costs more than planned work. Plus you are stuck without transport until we arrive.

Getting a spare cut while your original still works means we can duplicate it easily. Once the original is lost or completely worn out, we have to cut from the lock mechanism or key code. That adds time and cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

Well, it depends on the car really. Basic mechanical keys take about ten minutes.

Yes we can. If you have lost all your keys, we can cut from the lock barrel or using the key code. 

No, that is the whole point of mobile service. We come to wherever your car is.

We handle those too. Modern proximity keys and push button start systems are more involved. They need programming to your car’s specific frequency.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. It depends where you bought it and whether it is genuine

Dealers typically charge between 200 and 500 quid for car key replacement. We usually charge 80 to 250 depending on the vehicle.
