Services

What car key service do you need?

🔑

Spare Car Key

You have a working key and need a backup. New key cut to your vehicle's exact profile, programmed to your immobiliser, both keys tested before you leave.

🚨

All Keys Lost

No working key at all. We extract your vehicle's security data via OBD, cut a new key, and program it. Minimum two keys coded — so this never happens again.

📡

Remote Programming

Remote not locking or unlocking. Aftermarket or genuine replacement remotes supplied and programmed. Correct frequency for SA spec vehicles — 433MHz or 868MHz.

🛠️

Key Casing Replacement

Cracked casing, worn buttons, or damaged flip key mechanism. Your existing chip and blade transferred to a new casing — fraction of a full replacement cost.

📋

Key & Remote Cloning

Chip cloning where the vehicle system permits it. We read your original key chip and clone it to a new blank. Not possible on all platforms — we confirm feasibility first.

📅

The Process

What happens when you book a car key job

  1. You contact us — call, WhatsApp, or fill in the quote form. Tell us your make, model, year, and what you need.
  2. We confirm feasibility and price — we check your vehicle against our equipment and give you a firm quote. Price agreed before any booking is confirmed.
  3. Workshop or callout — workshop at 2 Sauer Place, Faerie Glen. Callout to your location in Pretoria East and surrounding areas.
  4. Battery stabilised first — we connect a stabilised power supply before any OBD connection. Your vehicle electronics are protected throughout the job.
  5. Key cut and coded — blade cut to factory profile on our laser key cutting machine. Programmed to your vehicle's immobiliser via professional OBD coding equipment.
  6. Every key tested — all keys tested in the lock and at the ignition before we pack up. You don't pay until it works.
Mercedes-Benz: Add-key available on pre-2014 models with a working key. Phone to confirm your exact year model before booking.
Toyota 2020+ Hilux/Fortuner: All-keys-lost is not feasible on the Y3 immobiliser. Add-key with a working key is still possible. We will tell you honestly before you travel.
VW Golf 8 (2022+): 5D chip platform — dealer only. We decline these jobs rather than waste your time and money.
