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.

Lost Car Keys & All Keys Lost

Losing every key to your car is stressful, but you don't need a tow truck or a long wait for a dealer. We come to you, cut a new key and program it to your vehicle on the spot.

  • New keys cut and programmed on-site for almost all makes and models.
  • Lost or stolen keys removed from your car's memory on request, for added security.
  • Locked out as well? We open the vehicle first with non-destructive entry. Car lockout service

Spare Car Keys

Don't wait until you lose your last working key. Replacing a key when you still have one is usually quicker and simpler than starting from scratch when all keys are lost.

We cut and code a spare key, remote or smart fob to match your existing one, right outside your home or workplace.

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.

Key Cutting

Computerised key-cutting machinery inside our mobile workshop cuts accurate new blades to your vehicle's specification.

  • Standard key blades
  • Internal-cut laser keys
  • Emergency blades for smart keys

Key Programming

A newly cut key won't start your engine until it's paired with your car's immobiliser. We use specialist key-programming equipment to do this safely on-site.

  • Transponder chips
  • Remote fobs and smart keys
  • Old or lost keys removed from memory on request

Remote Key Fobs & Smart Keys

From flip keys and remote fobs to keyless-entry proximity keys and key cards, we carry a wide stock and program them to your vehicle on the spot.

  • Remote stopped locking or unlocking the car? We supply and program a new remote to your central locking.
  • "Key not detected" message? We re-sync your smart key or program a new one.
  • Key cards and proximity keys for makes including Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Toyota and Land Rover.

Broken & Damaged Car Keys

Cracked casing, worn buttons or a key that has simply stopped working? We repair broken car keys, and where a repair isn't possible, we make and program a new key fob.

  • Broken car keys repaired.
  • Buttons no longer working? We code a new, fully working remote on-site.
  • Key snapped in the door lock or ignition? Don't force it. We safely extract the broken blade. Broken key extraction

Car Key FAQs

Can't find your answer? Call or WhatsApp us for free advice.

Can 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.
