Mobile Car Key Services That Come to You
Whether you need a spare key or have lost your only set, there's no need to tow your car to a main dealer. Auto Electro Locksmith brings a fully equipped mobile workshop to your home, workplace or roadside and makes your car keys while you wait.
We cut precision standard blades and laser keys, and program transponder keys, remote fobs and proximity smart keys on-site for almost all vehicle makes and models. Main dealers often need days to order a key, plus recovery fees to get your car to them. We carry a wide stock of keys and fobs, so most jobs are finished the same day.

Key Cutting & Programming
A modern car key has two jobs: the blade opens the lock, and the chip tells the car it's the right key. We handle both on-site.

Not sure if we cover you?
WhatsApp UsCan you replace my car key if I've lost all my keys?
Yes. We cut and program new keys on-site for almost all makes and models, including standard blades, remote fobs and proximity smart keys, even when no working key is left.
Can you make my new key the same day?
In most cases, yes. Our mobile workshop carries a wide stock of keys, remotes and smart fobs, so we can make car keys while you wait.
Why does a new key need programming?
A newly cut key will open the lock, but it won't start the engine until its transponder chip is paired with your car's immobiliser. We program transponder keys, remotes and smart keys on-site.
What happens to my lost or stolen keys?
On request, we can remove lost or stolen keys from your car's memory, so only the keys in your hand can operate the vehicle.
Can you repair a broken car key?
Yes. We repair broken car keys and make new key fobs where needed. If your key has snapped in the lock or ignition, see our broken key extraction service.
Is it cheaper than going to a main dealer?
You can save 75% compared with main dealer quotes and towing fees, and because we come to you, there's no recovery cost or long wait for a key to be ordered.
