How Our Grove Green Service Works
We aim to make things simple, fast, and safe.
- Diagnosis and access
- We start with a quick assessment and, if you’re locked out, use non-destructive entry tools. On modern cars, we use specialist lock picks rather than coat-hanger style methods, protecting weather seals and airbags.
- Key cutting and programming
- For keys, we decode your lock or use your VIN where appropriate, cut a new blade (including laser-cut/high-security), and programme the transponder or smart system using dealer-level equipment through the OBD2 port. Some vehicles require EEPROM or immobiliser box work; our trained technicians handle this cleanly and securely.
- Testing and handover
- We test starting, remote locking, and boot release. Where applicable, we erase missing or stolen keys from the immobiliser memory for your peace of mind. You leave with a working key and clear aftercare guidance.

FAQs For Drivers In Grove Green
Can you make a new car key without the original?
Yes. We can cut and programme a new key from your lock or immobiliser data. Depending on the car, we use OBD2 programming, and for certain models EEPROM or ECU/immobiliser programming. This is often quicker and more affordable than a dealership.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible. On a small minority of vehicles with certain lock failures, minimal drilling or component replacement may be the safest approach—this is explained and agreed before any work.
How fast can you get to Grove Green?
We dispatch efficiently across ME14 and surrounding ME postcodes. Times vary with traffic and workload, but we prioritise emergencies such as locked-out drivers or stranded families. Call us to check current availability.
Do you programme smart keys and proximity fobs?
Absolutely. We handle smart key programming, proximity key replacement, and push-to-start systems for most brands using dealer-level equipment. If your car shows “key not detected,” we can diagnose the cause and provide a solution.
What if my key snapped in the ignition?
We offer broken ignition key extraction and can repair or replace worn barrels. We’ll also cut and programme a replacement key if needed and ensure the immobiliser recognises it.
Are you insured and DBS checked?
Yes. We hold public liability insurance and all technicians are DBS-checked for your peace of mind.
Is a mobile locksmith cheaper than a dealer?
Often, yes—especially for lost keys or urgent lockouts. We come to you, save towing costs, and provide same-day solutions in many cases. Learn more about considerations on our auto locksmith prices Medway page.
