FAQs For Burnt Oak Drivers
Can you make a new car key without the original in Burnt Oak?
Yes. We can create and program a new key without the original by reading security data from your vehicle using OBD2 diagnostics or, for certain models, EEPROM methods. We then cut and program a replacement on-site and ensure the old key is deauthorised where appropriate.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
Our vehicle unlocking is non-destructive wherever possible. We use specialist tools and techniques to protect locks, glass, and paint. In rare cases of severe lock damage or certain high-security setups, minimal drilling may be required—we explain this first and only proceed with your approval.
How long does it take to get a new key in HA8?
Many replacements are completed in a single visit, often the same day, depending on your vehicle make, model, and key type (standard, remote, smart). We’ll give you an accurate timescale when you contact us.
