Lost Car Keys
At Allsafe Auto Locksmiths, we understand how stressful and inconvenient it can be to lose your car keys. That’s why we aim to make the process as simple and hassle-free as possible.
In most cases, we can provide a replacement key and get you back on the road the very same day.
For added security, we can remove your lost keys from the vehicle’s immobiliser system. This means that if someone finds your missing keys and locates your vehicle, they will be unable to start it.
Where necessary, and on certain vehicle models, we can also supply and fit replacement lock sets. This provides an additional level of security by replacing the vehicle’s locks, ensuring any lost or stolen keys can no longer be used. This service is particularly popular for vans carrying valuable tools and equipment.

How Does It Work?
1. Gaining Entry
If your keys are lost, the first challenge is usually getting into the vehicle. We use specialist, vehicle-specific lock picking equipment to gain entry quickly and without causing damage.
2. Creating a New Key
Once access has been gained, we create a new key for your vehicle. This is done either by decoding the locks or by obtaining the key information from the manufacturer. Using our computerised key cutting equipment, we can accurately cut a new key on-site.
3. Programming the Key
Modern vehicles require the key to be programmed to the vehicle’s immobiliser system. We use advanced diagnostic equipment and manufacturer-approved procedures to program the new key via the vehicle’s onboard diagnostic (OBD) system.
4. Removing Lost Keys
For complete peace of mind, we can erase any missing keys from the vehicle’s memory, ensuring they can no longer be used to start the vehicle.

How Long Does It Take?
The time required depends on the make and model of the vehicle.
Some lost key jobs can be completed in as little as 30 minutes, while most are resolved within an hour. More complex vehicles may take longer.
For an accurate estimate, simply give us a call and we’ll be happy to help.
