We Come to Wherever Your Car Is

When you've lost your car keys, being told to arrange recovery to a dealer and wait several days for a replacement is the last thing you want to hear. Our mobile car key service means we come directly to you — home, work, a car park, anywhere in the Wigan area — and get it sorted on the spot.

What's Included in Our Car Key Replacement Service?

Key Cutting

We cut the physical blade to match your car's locks. Even without an original key to copy, we can often pull the key code from the vehicle's lock barrel or VIN data.

Transponder Programming

Since the mid-90s, virtually every car key contains a small chip that has to be recognised by the immobiliser before the engine will start. A correctly cut key that hasn't been programmed is useless. We programme the new key to your specific vehicle so it starts first time.

Remote / Fob Programming

If your key controls central locking, we programme the remote at the same time. You leave with a fully working key — not just something that turns in the ignition.

Lost All Your Car Keys? We Can Still Sort It

Dealers often quote £400+ for an "all keys lost" job — and that's before you pay for recovery. We carry specialist diagnostic equipment for this exact scenario and offer a much more competitive price. Call us with your make, model, and year and we'll give you a quote.
