for us to attend to your car at a time to suit you. We will always call ahead to give you a 30-minute notification of our arrival.

We make your car key, wherever your vehicle is sited. Depending on the vehicle this can be as quick as 20 minutes, but some models take a bit longer.

If you decide to go to a dealer you will need to produce your V5 and proof of ID and then wait for a few days for the key to arrive. This is a particularly long wait of between 10 to 21 days if you have a vehicle from the VAG group from 2014 to date. There is then an arrangement to be made to get your vehicle to their site to be programmed, so this can be an extremely long process.

What to expect during the fitting

Your auto locksmith will expect to see some sort of identification for you and your vehicle just to ensure a lawful context. You can expect your key to be replaced in 20 minutes although some vehicles take longer but usually no more than an hour.
