Will you damage my car when you unlock it?
We specialise in non-destructive entry and open the vast majority of vehicles without damage. In the rare cases where drilling or component removal is unavoidable, we explain your options and costs first.
How long does it take to replace and program a car key?
Many standard keys are completed in one visit within an hour or two. Complex smart keys, high-security profiles, or immobiliser faults can take longer. We’ll give you an estimated timeframe when you call.
