What we program

A car key is only half done when it is cut. The chip inside has to be coded to your vehicle before the engine will start. That is the part we do.

Transponder chips
The chip in the key coded to your immobiliser so the engine turns over.
Remote central locking
Remote buttons paired so lock, unlock and boot work.
Smart and proximity
Push button start fobs coded for a range of makes.
Adding a key
An extra key added to the car’s memory alongside your existing ones.
Supplied keys
Keys we supply, and in many cases keys you supply, coded to the car.
On site, no dealer trip
Programming done where your car is in the great majority of cases.
Bought a key or fob online? We can often program it, but cheap aftermarket fobs vary in quality and some will not accept programming. Tell us the make, model, year and where the key came from, and we will tell you before we come out whether it is likely to work.

Programming questions, answered

Can you program a key I bought online?

Often yes, but it depends on the vehicle and the quality of the key. Some cheap aftermarket fobs will not program reliably. Tell us the make, model and where the key is from and we will advise before booking.

Do I need to bring the car to you?

No. We are mobile and come to you. Programming needs the car present, so we do it wherever the vehicle is.

How long does programming take?

A straightforward key or remote is often 20 to 45 minutes. Smart keys and all keys lost take longer because the system has to be read first. We give you a realistic time on the call.
