FAQs For Burham Drivers

Can you unlock my car without damaging it?

Yes—our priority is non-destructive entry using specialist tools and techniques. In rare cases where damage-free entry isn’t possible (for example, a severely damaged or modified lock), we’ll explain options and costs before proceeding.

Can you make a new car key without the original?

Yes. We can create a replacement from your vehicle’s locks/immobiliser and then programme it to your ECU using OBD2 or EEPROM. If you’re wondering, “can a locksmith make a car key without the original?”, the answer is yes—this is a standard service for lost keys.

How long does it take to get a new car key?

Many replacements are completed the same visit, typically within an appointment window that suits your location and vehicle. Some advanced keys or security systems may take longer. We’ll advise realistic timings during your quote.

Do you cover smart and proximity keys?

Absolutely. We handle smart key programming, push-to-start systems, and proximity key replacement for many makes and models, including newer 2024/2025 vehicles.
