Keys 4 Cars Ltd. provide a comprehensive range of professional, mobile auto locksmith and car key services for Kent car and van owners including:
Car Key Replacement Orpington
If it’s an emergency and you need a replacement car key fast, our emergency mobile car locksmith service for Orpington can provide you with a replacement car key if yours has been lost, damaged or you’ve locked it in your car.
Call our emergency number and we’ll arrive with all the tools and equipment needed to complete the job at whatever location you’re at in Orpington.
Even if it’s not an emergency, there are numerous reasons why you might want a replacement car key. Perhaps the spare has gone missing or your key is simply wearing out or gets bent accidentally.
Whatever the reason, we’ll be happy to provide you with a new or duplicate key AND program it/them to your vehicle and immobiliser at the same time – all for a price that’ll be much cheaper than your local Orpington main dealer.

Mobile Car Key Programming Orpington
Keys 4 Cars Ltd. provide a quick and easy mobile car key programming service throughout Orpington. We can either visit you at your home or you can come to our workshop if you prefer.
Most car keys have an integrated transponder chip that’s used to deactivate the immobiliser which means the key will need to be programmed to the car.
Don’t worry, we’ve got all the equipment necessary to program virtually any car key ( although a tiny percentage may still need coding by your main dealer).
Just let us know the make and model and we’ll tell you if we can help. We usually like to supply a new key with programming as it allows us to make sure the correct transponder chip and key are used.

Key and Fob Repair
With age, keys can become worn and snap off in locks, causing an unexpected headache. If this happens to you, don’t panic. We can refurbish, repair or replace keys that have problems AND save you money over a full key replacement.
Similarly, if your key has lost its sharp grooves and you’re struggling to open your door or turn the ignition barrel, let us take care of it before it stops working altogether or snaps off in the barrel. Make sure you keep our number handy if this ever happens to you and you find yourself stranded somewhere in Orpington.

Lock Repair Orpington
Although it’s mainly the key that gets damaged, occasionally the lock itself might be the problem.
If the door lock or ignition barrel becomes worn or is damaged, it can cause the key to get stuck. If this happens to you we can visit you anywhere in Orpington to repair or replace either the door lock or ignition barrel.
The majority of car locks are made up of between 6-10 wafers. All it takes is for 1 of the wafers to become worn for the key to be unable to meet the wafer, meaning an issue will eventually develop with locking, unlocking or starting your car.
We know all the tricks of the trade to remove, replace and/or repair the necessary parts without any damage to your car.

It’s a common problem to either lose your keys or accidentally lock them in your car. We won’t damage or cause any signs of forced entry when opening car doors as our skilled team have professional tools and are experts at car lock picking.
Although most cars can be opened within seconds, others can take a bit longer. Either way, we’ll have you back on the road in no time, and at a cheaper price than you’d likely have to pay if you visited your main Orpington dealership.
