FAQs For Leybourne Drivers
Can you make a new car key without the original?
Yes. In most cases we can create and program a new key without the original using your vehicle’s VIN, immobiliser data, and dealer-level diagnostic tools. For security, we’ll verify proof of ownership. Learn more about car key replacement.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible, such as lock-pick techniques and specialist air wedge tools. If a lock is severely damaged or a particular model requires an alternative approach, we’ll discuss any minimal, necessary work with you first.
How long does it take to get a new key in Leybourne?
Many replacements are completed in one visit, often within the same appointment window once we arrive. The exact time depends on your make/model, key type (remote, smart, or transponder), and whether all keys are lost.
Can you program smart or proximity keys for push-to-start cars?
Yes. We handle smart key programming, keyless entry fobs, and proximity systems for a wide range of brands, using OBD2 and, where required, EEPROM/ECU immobiliser programming. See our car key programming page for details.
My central locking isn’t working—can you fix it?
We can diagnose and repair remote central locking faults, replace failing fobs, and address lock actuators or wiring issues. If the fob is the culprit, we offer repair or replacement and reprogramming on-site.
Do you cover evenings and weekends?
Yes. We provide emergency support across Medway and ME postcodes, including evenings, weekends, and bank holidays. For urgent help now, Call 01634 980 066.
