Due to ULEZ tax my car had to go. Second hand car sold with only 1 key! Main dealer wanted over £300 to produce a second key!!! Found this business online and read reviews. The team came straight to my door, 5 star service. Will definitely spread the word! Highly recommended.

Second time I have used this company. Both times have been 5 star service. Very good. Met me half way (distance) to sort out a new key. Very reasonable price and friendly service. I would definitely use again and happily recommend to anyone else.

These guys could not be more helpful and courteous. My fob on my car was not working and they came to my house. They arrived on time and texted me when they were on their way which I really appreciated. They made a new fob within the time they said it would take which worked perfectly. A few days later they helped me to try and sort out another problem I had with the car via text messaging me. They were absolutely brilliant and so very kind and helpful. They really went out of their way to help me. I recommend this company to anyone and their details are now on my phone should I get any further issues. You won’t go wrong by ringing this company.Thank you guys. 👍😁

Absolute amazing service last night. Partner had her car keys stolen, called these guys up and within 45mins, they’d arrived at around 22:00 to create me new keys to protect the car.He gained access to her car, coded 2 new keys and used his tools to delete the old keys from the car so the thief couldn’t take it.All this was done whilst he explained everything he’s doing and answered all my stupid questions.I’ve saved his number and anything lock related now I will definitely use these guys again!

Great service - they were very flexible about timing and fitted us in quickly. They fixed one key at a reasonable price and have offered to get in touch if a second “preloved” key becomes available, versus buying a brand new one at great expense. Much appreciated.

First time having to deal with a car locksmith and could not have asked for a better person than Shane. My car ignition was not starting and steering wheel locked up every time I moved the steering wheel.Shane was great, truly an experienced car engineer. I had RAC called over and they were not able to do anything for me. But Shane had all the tools and the spare part I needed for my car. Did not take him long at all to work out what was wrong and managed to fix the problem within half an hour.Every other car locksmith I tried was telling they are not free until a few days later.If you ever need a car locksmith Shane is the perfect person for the job. Thank you so much for your help mate. 10/10 experience.

I am very pleased with a service. Contacted the company on a Saturday and had the key done on Sunday. The key had a manufacture defect as it was the last one:) I had to lock the car manually, but was able to go to work on Monday. The following week once a new key arrived the pleasant young man came and replace it within 5 minutes. Quick response, fantastic service and excellent price for 7 days available service. Keep up a good work:)

KENT SERVICES


Car Key Replacement / Key Cutting

There are numerous reasons why you might want to get a replacement car key cut. Perhaps your spare key has gone missing. It may be simply wearing out or has bent accidentally. Whatever the reason, we’ll be happy to cut you a new or duplicate key AND program it/them to your vehicle and immobiliser at the same time – cutting you a key at a price that’ll be much cheaper than your main dealer. We also provide 24-hour emergency car key replacement if your key is lost, damaged or locked in your vehicle.

Car Key Programming

Keys 4 Cars Ltd. provide a quick and easy mobile car key programming service. One of our locksmiths can either visit you at home or you can come to our Kent workshop if you prefer.

Most car keys have an integrated transponder chip that’s used to deactivate the immobiliser. This means the key will need to be programmed to the car. Don’t worry, we’ve got all the equipment necessary to program virtually any car key (although a tiny percentage may still need coding by your main dealer). Just let us know the make and model and we’ll tell you if we can help. We usually like to supply a new key with programming as it allows us to make sure the correct transponder chip and key are used.

Car Key Repairs

With age, keys can become worn and snap off in locks, causing an unexpected headache. If this happens to you, don’t panic! We can refurbish, repair or replace keys that have problems AND save you money over a full key replacement. Similarly, if your key has lost its sharp grooves and you’re struggling to open your door or turn the ignition barrel, let us take care of it before it stops working altogether or snaps off in the barrel. Make sure you keep our number handy if this ever happens to you and you find yourself stranded somewhere.

Vehicle Lock Repairs

Although it’s mainly the key that gets damaged, occasionally it can be the lock instead. If the lock or ignition barrel becomes worn or damaged, it can also cause the key to get stuck. If this happens, we'll come to you and repair or replace either the vehicle's door lock or ignition barrel of your vehicle.

Between 6-10 wafers make up the majority of automobile locks. All it takes is for 1 of the wafers to become worn for the key to be unable to meet the wafer, meaning an issue will eventually develop with locking, unlocking or starting your car. We know all the tricks of the trade to remove, replace and/or repair the necessary parts without any damage to your automobile.

Locksmithing - Vehicle Opening

We're locksmithing experts and have all the necessary tools to provide a fast, damage-free car entry service to your vehicle. It’s a common problem to either lose your keys or accidentally lock them in your car or van. We won’t damage or cause any signs of forced entry when opening car doors as our skilled team have professional tools and are experts at car lock picking. We can open most cars within seconds; others can take a bit longer. Either way, we’ll have you back on the road in no time, and at a cheaper price than you’d likely have to pay if you visited your main dealer.

Emergency 24/7 Mobile Auto Locksmith

Sometimes you can lose your keys or they become damaged. You may have even locked them in your car. Our 24-hour emergency automotive locksmith will cut you a replacement key on the spot if it’s an emergency and you need a replacement car key fast.
