We keep a wide range of keys in stock and can source most keys we don’t carry for next-working-day delivery. We offer proximity smart keys, remote key fobs and bladed service keys in aftermarket, universal and OEM main dealer variants.

Protect yourself with a spare key

Buying a spare key for your vehicle is considerably cheaper than replacing a lost key, due to the extra procedures required in an all-keys-lost situation – not to mention the downtime you could face without any keys. Having a spare key can save you time and money in the future, ensuring you always have a backup if your main key is lost or damaged.

Extensive Vehicle Coverage

As this is an ever-evolving industry, we can’t cover every make and model. However, with a wide range of the latest programming equipment and software on the market, we have extensive vehicle coverage and will always do our very best to help and advise you on the options available for your specific vehicle.

Ford, Vauxhall, Fiat, Peugeot, Renault, Audi, Alfa Romeo, BMW, Citroën, Dacia, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar, Kia, Land Rover, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, MINI, Nissan, Porsche, SEAT, Škoda, Toyota, Volkswagen, Iveco and MG are just some of the vehicle brands our IMI-trained, SERMI-approved locksmiths can cover.
