Your Questions Answered

How quickly can you get to me?

My goal is to reach you as quickly as possible. As I operate a mobile service across the entire North East, my arrival time depends on your location and current traffic conditions. When you call, I will give you an honest and realistic estimated time of arrival based on where I am.

Is your service cheaper than going to the main dealer?

Yes, in the vast majority of cases. By operating as an independent, mobile specialist, I don’t have the large overheads of a dealership garage. I pass these savings directly on to you, providing the same high-quality, guaranteed keys and programming at a much more competitive price.

What information do you need from me?

For your security and to prove ownership of the vehicle, I will need to see two things: your V5C logbook and a form of photo ID (like a driver’s license) that matches the name and address on the logbook. This is a best practice that protects you and ensures I’m only creating keys for the rightful owner.

Do you offer a warranty on your keys?

Absolutely. I stand by the quality of my work. All new keys and repairs come with a comprehensive 12-month warranty, giving you complete peace of mind that you’ve received a reliable, long-lasting solution.

Can you make keys for my specific make and model?

I work with a huge range of vehicle makes and models, from Ford and Vauxhall to BMW and Volkswagen. My equipment is consistently updated to cover the vast majority of cars on UK roads. The best way to be certain is to give me a quick call with your vehicle details, and I can confirm instantly.
